Hello,
We are on a new SAP installation proyect and are facing some problems while setting the solutions for VAT tax.
Our company is located in France, and belongs to a group where some companies that are located abroad but that will not join SAP yet but in a middle term future. And it is the matrix.
Sometimes our local company receives a SD Purchase order from a Slovakiar customer and, instead of supplying it itself, asks its Slovakiar trading partner company to supply and delivery the materials (saving travel expenses and shorting delivery dates). Hence, this delivery is carried out as a LOCAL Chinese delivery and HAS TO be taxed under Chinese local tax indicators/rates, eventhough the invoice is issued by our FRENCH company code. This is: our French company issues an invoice with a Chinese tax rate.
Furthermore, sometimes the supplier is a non-group Chinese vendor, and still the invoice is issued by our Frech company.
We dare doubting about how to set up the tax codes that have to be used in this sales transactions:
- Option A: configuring tax indicators in our local tax scheme for Chinese sales inside China.
- Option B: activating Plants abroad functionality.
- Option C: both previous options: A for sales from our group chinese trading partner; and B for sales from Chinese non-group vendors.
Could somebody advice? Thanks in advance.
Best regards.
Johan
