2786679 - Tax Code Description in Italy’s Input VAT EC Register Form

Symptom

On the output form of the VAT Return of type: Input VAT EC Register, one invoice with two or multiple items of different Tax Code ABC and DEF, appears with only one Tax Code in the form with a summed up of the Tax Amount of all the items.

ABC and DEC stand for the Tax Code ID.

The same scenario applies to the VAT Return type: Output VAT Extra EC Register.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the Tax Management work center.
  2. Go to the Tax Returns view.
  3. Select the VAT Returns subview.
  4. Show All Tax Returns.
  5. Search for the Tax Return ID: XXX (XXX stands for the ID of the VAT Return).
  6. Select the button Preview.

In the output form, the Invoice ID: XYZ (XYZ stands for the ID of the invoice) shows with only one tax code ABC with the sum up of the tax amount of the items with the Tax Code ABC and DEF.

This also results in the amount of the Summary per Tax Code been wrong (not the expected one).

Cause

Only one Tax Code: ABC shows in the output form with the summed up of the tax amount because, for the invoice XYZ, the Tax Code ABC and DEC are used. Both Tax Codes are mapped to the same Tax Event using the same Tax Type and Rate Type.

In SAP Business ByDesign, for the output form of the Input VAT EC Register (Italy), the grouping is based on Tax Event, Rate Type and Due Category.

Resolution

This is the normal system behavior.

If two or multiple Tax Code (with different description) which are mapped to the same Tax Event are used in the same invoice, only one tax code shows in the form with a summed up of the tax amount.

To fulfill the legal requirement for Italy Input VAT EC Register form to show every Tax Code Description used in an Invoice, you must not include two different Tax Code which are mapped to the same Tax Event in the same invoice. You must include the materials of the same Tax Code in one invoice.

In your case here, the materials with the tax code ABC must be in one invoice and the materials with the tax code DEF in another invoice.
