change "assign country -> calculation procedure" - how critical for existing company

[Former Member]

hello,

we are thinking about a change of the calculation procedure in FI. The reason is, it was assigned many, many years ago and currently calculation procedure of Germany is used for Liechtenstein. We are thinking about a separation and now we are not sure about how critical this change will be. Unfortunately we did not find any information in SAP OSS. Does someone have experiences with changing the calculation procedure in FI with an existing company?

Many thanks

Best regards,

Hi Sandra,

You can easily change your tax calculation procedure for FI:

Go to Financial Accounting New->Financial Accounting Global Settings->Tax on Sales/Purchase

->Basic Settings->Check Calculation Procedure

Before making changes you have to create new condition types according to your requirement,

Do all changes in TEST Client before changes in original procedure import it excel file.

Remember : For all existing tax codes you may have to maintain some extra condition types due to changes in existing procedure.

Hello,

many thanks for your reply.

Last questions: When we change the calculation procedure and maintain extra condition types what happenend with documents which are still open. Does the change do not affect existing documents which are not posted now?

Many thanks

Best regards
