Specifying tax base value formulas
tax base value formula.
For tax categories for which the tax amounts are not based on the net purchase order amounts or the net purchase invoice amounts, you can specify the algorithm used to determine the tax base amount. For example, if the tax is based on a percentage of the net amount, you must specify the tax base value formula.
To specify the tax base value formula, use the following sequence of sessions:
-

Specify the variable for the tax base value formula. You can only use alphabetic codes for the variable, for example, ABC. In the description field, indicate the type of work or services for which you specify the formula.
The Art der Bemessungsgrundlage can only be Warenwert. Therefore, you can specify and use a single variable for all the tax base value formulas that you must specify. However, if you must specify multiple formulas, for easier reference you can specify a number of variables and in the description field, indicate their use.

To link the tax base value formula to a tax code
In the Steuercode nach Land (tcmcs0136s000) session, select the tax base formula in the Formel für Bemessungsgrundlage field.
