Wtax amount in journal entry is in credit side

[Former Member]

I'm creating journal entry and manage wtax is ticked mark. After selecting and putting an amount on the withholding tax table the entry was always on credit side. Is this normal? I want to be in debit the withholding tax. Is there a configuration I missed?

[Former Member]

I will. I terms of SAP B1 behavior. Is this normal?

I am using India Localization here Manage wtax option at Journal entry is not available. But for adjusting with AR you need to debit the withholding tax.

For further AR entry, In withholding tax setup please assign category as Payment this will not deduct with holding amount at Invoice but later at payment it will deduct.

Balaji,

Is it safe to say that this behavior is normal?

The withholding tax GL account of the client is under asset. I'm using the JE module is because the I want to adjust my open AR to be the withholding tax. We did not use the wtax table on the AR invoice due to requested by the client.

I want to use the manage wtax on the JE for our customized report to include this on the entry.

In case of adjusting with AR , you need to debit the withholding tax.

Yes, That is also I'm expecting entry but when using the manage wtax on the JE it will automatic put on the credit side. Is this normal with SAP? I'm using Australia localization.

Had you selected the row level WTax liable as 'Yes'. In Journal entry if you had assigned the tax then it gets credited. Not withholding Tax GL.

[Former Member]

I have already assigned and still the amount is still on the credit side not on the debit side.

Can you share the screen

[Former Member]

Did you try to right click then select the WtAx code for this transaction? My JE adjustment is should be the amount of the Customer. Please below the entry I want in JE

Debit: Withholding Tax

Credit: AR

[former_member312729]

No i didn't right click for selecting WtAx code. If you had tick mange wtax and at row level you need to select the Wtax liable yes. System will pop for the confirmation for Withholding Tax deduction. Further add the JE. It will be deducted at Incoming payment entry.

[Former Member]

I also did that but still the amount is on credit side. Is this normal behavior of sap?

[former_member312729]

Share you screen

This is the screen shot

As you have noticed, Prepaid taxes was automatic on the credit after I assigned the wtax code. I want it on the debit side to balance this JE.

Hi Precious,

You had trying the withholding tax with category as 'INVOICE' and in journal entry you had entered value on credit for customer and as a result withholding tax gets credited in JE

[Former Member]

Is it normal the entry is on the credit side? There will be a difference when I change it on payment? I will try this.

[former_member312729]

Hi Precious,

Since its payable and so you record it as a liability. So it will be credited.

If you want to debit the withholding tax then can you explain the scenario and share screen shot of the entry.
