Posting Data for Tax Codes (tfgld0171s000)
Use this session to define the ledger accounts and the default dimensions for tax codes of a specific country.
For each tax code, you can define the ledger accounts to which the various tax transactions must be posted. You can only define the ledger accounts that are relevant to the kind of tax of the tax code.
Mandatory accounts
If the tax code type is other than Normal, you must specify the following ledger accounts:
- If the tax type is On Payments, you must specify the interim account to which the tax amount is posted when you create the order. For details, refer to Kinds of tax.
- If the tax type is Shifted, you must specify the contra account for the reversal entry. For details, refer to Kinds of tax.
Optional accounts
You can post all other tax amounts on purchase-related transactions to the Purchase Tax account and all tax amounts on sales-related transactions to the Sales Tax account. However, if you want to post the tax amounts of specific transactions such as credit notes and the assignment of advance payments or receipts to specific accounts, you can enter the accounts in the corresponding fields.
Dimensions
If dimensions are linked to the tax ledger accounts, for invoices LN derives the dimensions from the financial business partner group control accounts. For journal vouchers, LN derives the dimensions from the ledger account of the journal.
If mandatory dimensions are linked to the tax accounts and no dimensions are defined for the transaction ledger account, LN uses the dimensions that you specify in the Posting Data for Tax Codes (tfgld0171s000) or the Posting Data for Multiple Tax Codes (tfgld0170s000) session.
