2606398 - Incorrect Tax Rate is Applied for Special Economic Zones

Symptom

You notice that on your Sales Orders the expected Tax Rate for Special Economic Zones (SEZ) is not applied.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the Sales Orders Work Centre.
  2. Go to the Sales Orders View.
  3. Search for Sales Order YYY and select it (YYY stands for the Sales Order ID).
  4. Click on Edit, then View All.
  5. Navigate to the Item tab and then the Taxes subtab.

You can see that the Automatic Tax Determination feature is activated but that the applied Tax Code is not the one you expect.

Cause

This is the expected system behaviour as Automatic Tax Determination is not available for Special Economic Zones.

Resolution

As a workaround, it is necessary to manually maintain the expected Tax Code on your Sales Order:

  1. Go to the Sales Orders Work Centre.
  2. Go to the Sales Orders View.
  3. Search for Sales Order YYY and select it.
  4. Click on Edit, then View All.
  5. Navigate to the Item tab and then the Taxes subtab.
  6. In the Tax Code drop down menu, select the relevant Tax Code for your transaction and save.
