Approved
If this check box is selected, LN uses the tax codes to calculate and report tax amounts for transactions that have the group tax code.

To approve a group tax code, select the tax code and on the appropriate menu, click Approve.

Caution!

Once you have approved the group tax code, you cannot unapprove it or change its data.

Note

If you have shared the Tax Code by Country (tcmcs036) table across your financial companies, but did not share the Posting Data for Single Tax Codes (tfgld071) table, to approve this tax code you must specify ledger accounts per tax code in all financial companies.

Example: Tcmcs036 is shared between financial companies 100 and 200, but tfgld071 is not shared between these companies. Financial company 100 is based in the Netherlands, while financial company 200 is based in the United States. Tcmcs036 will contain tax codes for the Netherlands and for the United States.
