Posting of disconnection charges as net receivables

Former Member

Hello Experts,

We have configured charge schemas to be used in disconnection processing variants for posting of disconnection/reconnection charges. The business requirement is that is that this should be the base amount with applicable taxes calculated on it.For e.g. if the configured amount is CAD 100 and tax percentage is 13% then the document should be posted for an amount of CAD 113.

However as part of the standard functionality the amount is posted as gross amount with CAD 88.50 as the base amount and CAD 11.50 as taxes. I am not able to find any user exits or events where we can influence this behaviour. The standard function module that gets invoked at the time of disconnection entry ISU_DISCDOC_SAVE_CHARGE internally calls the FM  FKK_CREATE_CHARGE_DOCUMENT. One of the importing parameters for this FM 'I_XNETT' is commented out which I think controls how the charge will be posted.

Any ideas on how this can be implemented?

Thanks!

Hi Prashant,

When you are posting a FICA document, whether it will be posted as gross amount or net amount, is decided from SPRO Configuration-'Maintain Central Settings for Posting'

If the Setting, 'Receivable Amounts are net amounts' is not ticked, then the document posted is gross which comprises of the tax component.

In your scenario, as the disconnection charge is a configured charge and is constant , so can you not configuring the charge with the tax component, say 113 CAD instead to 100CAD in SPRO Config.

Alternatively, you can enhance event 1110, to add tax items.

Hope it helps.

Thanks,

Amlan

HI Amlan, thanks for your suggestions. Basically we want the taxes to applied based on the Account Determination ID, so if the account is tax exempt, the configured charge should be posted without taxes. It seems like during the posting of charges from disconnection it is always getting posted as gross amounts. The main configuration setting did not have any influence in this behaviour. However the issue was resolved by enhancing event 1110 with a simple code change of setting the gross/net posting indicator (I_XNETT).

Thanks a lot for your help!
