TAX

SAP use Condition method to calculate taxes. It make use of Tax Codes for calculating the quantity of tax.

Tax Code is the starting point in the tax calculation. It is country specific. Every country has a country specific tax procedure defined in the standard system. The system use the tax code to verify the 1) Tax type 2) Amount of Tax 3) GL account for posting.

Tax Code is assigned to a Tax Procedure which is tagged to a GL master record.

Tax Procedure contains the following

STEPS : determine the sequence of the lines within the procedure

Condition Type: How the tax calculation model will work.

Account & Processing Keys Provide the link between tax procedure and GL account. This will help in Automatic tax account assignment.
