Setting up the business rules for Tax Reporting
You must define a business rule for the Tax Reporting reports. The rule sets the tax indicator that allows the tax reports to distinguish between the gross, net and tax transactions. The business rule must identify the gross, net and tax account codes within your chart of accounts.
You must create an event profile for the Tax Reporting function. You must then define a rule set for this profile that sets the Gross/Net/Tax indicator on each transaction to Gross, Net or Tax for the account ranges identified:
Account Code Ranges | Set Indicator |
64001 to 64999 (Debtor accounts) | Gross |
10000 to 19999 (Income accounts) | Net |
94000 to 94999 (Tax accounts) | Tax |
