Where we maintain the CST & VAT numbers for a plant which is not a register

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Where we maintain the CST & VAT numbers for a plant which is not a registered for Excise?

we are printing it on the invoice output. on debugging it is known that it comes from the table AUSP, after checking the table CABN.

Any body knows about these two tables? let me know the purpose of these tables

thanks in advance,

Venkat

As I know, though Plant is not registered. You can maintain CST / VAT numbers in Tx:J1ID - Maintain Plant address ( leave the rest of the fields as blank) & read the CST / VAT numbers to print in Output.

I think, in your requirement, logic was something different.

It may not address your issue. Just to inform you that without registration also you can maintain CST / VAT details in J1ID.

Hello Rezauddin,

However legally it is not correct to maintain the CST and VAT number for the plant without registration and it can have a serious legal impact .........

I think we should also focus on the legal aspect rather than just giving the solution what the client requires, as such, a consultant can have his own legal opinion ireespective of client requirement.

Mr Big Screams.....

I hope you have neigther read my reply completely nor understood correctly.

Let me tell you, maintaining record in J1ID in Plant address details doesnt declared that plant is registered under Excise act until unless you maintain ECC details. ( ECC -Excise Control Code number which will be alloted by the Central Excise dept).

You will find CST / VAT fields in J1ID which is actually given to maintain Plant address details for INDIA localization.

Hope its clear.

Hi

I think the VAT and CST numbers are maintained as a characteristics.

Because CABN is the table which holds the batch characteristics

AUSP is the table which holds the characteristic values for characteristics

Hi Prashant,

As you said, it is correct. This data is maintained as charecteristics only. Now i want to know how we can maintain these values in SAP system? Is it SM30 View maintenance or some other transaction code we use?

Please advise

Tx:CT04 - to create Characteristics & assign the values in "Values" tab of Characteristics.

Hi Venkateshwarlu

You can maintain in CT04 if already that characteristics exist if not you can create CT04 as other member said.

It is not possible to enter or modify through SM30 as both the tables doesn't have

maintenance objects .

Hi All,

I got it, we maintained the licenses data in classification of general data of the plant customer.

Thanks for all

Venkat.
