Duplicate tax not allowed in OBCD?

[former_member727409]

Hi Team,

we have configured same tax percentage maintained for custom tax codes e.g. K0,V0 for zero percent. So how to verify the tax code at the time of incoming invoice from Ariba because in OBCD system doesn't allow same tax percentage(duplicate entry error).

2) In Case we send CGST tax from ariba as a tax category but in OBCD(ERP) configuration the tax category allow 3 char only. please advise how we can handle this issue.

Thanks,

Hello,

As for 2) the reported issue is a known issue, as a workaround you can truncate the value from 4 characters into 3 characters.

As for 1) if you are allowed you can create custom tax categories on Ariba Network to avoid this issue. If you are forced to use a specific tax category (like for India), you should default OBCD to the most common tax code and have accounts payable check every invoice for potential tax code reassignment
