Business Partner

A party with whom you carry out business transactions, for example, a customer or a supplier. You can also define departments within your organization that act as customers or suppliers to your own department as business partners.

The business partner definition includes:

  • The organization's name and main address.
  • The language and currency used.
  • Taxation and legal identification data.

You address the business partner in the person of the business partner's contact. The business-partner status determines if you can carry out transactions. The transactions type (sales orders, invoices, payments, shipments) is defined by the business partner's role.

Country

Countries are the national states where your suppliers and customers are located. For each country you can define the country code, international dialing, telex, and fax codes.

Countries are part of the data that you must set up for tax reporting. In addition, items can be grouped and selected according to their country of origin.

ZIP Code/Postal Code

A number that identifies each postal delivery area.

ZIP codes are used:

  • To sort customer data by address/area.
  • To determine in which taxation jurisdiction the address is located.

ZIP codes are printed on forwarding documents on which no further address data is printed. The ZIP/postal code does not appear in the address lines on order documents.

GEO Code

The code used together with or instead of address information such as the city, state/province, and postal code to identify a taxing jurisdiction.

Inside City Limits

This check box is selected if the address is located within the actual boundaries of the specified city.

The check box is used by the tax provider to determine the proper jurisdiction. Some addresses can actually be located in unincorporated areas outside of the city, but still use the city name in their address. This is important for sales tax because some cities have their own sales tax, but they only have jurisdiction over sales within their actual city limits.

You can select this check box if you have specified that you are using a tax provider in the Tax Provider Parameters (tctax6100m000) session, and Vertex is the chosen provider.

Local Tax Number

The fiscal number assigned by the local tax office. If the business partner that uses this address has a European tax number and a local tax number, this is the local tax number.

In some countries, for example, in Germany, businesses can have a European tax number and a local tax number. Both tax numbers must be printed on invoices. The European tax number must be printed on the sales listing and the intrastat report.

Route
