SAP Business ByDesign

1. Go to the Supplier Invoicing work center.
2. Go to the Invoices and Credit Memos view.
3. Select the relevant invoice and choose Edit.
4. In tab General, subtab Taxes, the Tax rate is 0% and the Calculated Tax Amount remains 0,00 USD.

The determination of the tax rates is done based on the available address information of the related parties in your invoice document. In the supplier invoice, there is no tax jurisdiction code defined for the Ship-From and Ship-To parties. Furthermore, in the Business Configuration (activity Tax on Goods and Services -> US Sales Tax Rate Schedules), the tax rates on US state level (for example, CA - California) for Sales and Use Tax are not defined. Consequently, the correct tax rate cannot be retrieved from the Business Configuration.

1. Go to the Supplier Invoicing work center.
2. Go to the Invoices and Credit Memos view.
3. Select the relevant invoice and choose Edit.
4. Go to the Items tab, then the Partners subtab.
