SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Some tax numbers appear in the BPTaxLongNumber field.

The BP Tax Long Number (technical name TAXNUMXL) field within the Business Partner (BP) tax table serves a dual purpose. Firstly, it accommodates large tax numbers, allowing for entries up to 60 characters in length. Additionally, it is employed to store tax numbers beyond the standard range, specifically Tax Number 5 and above—for instance, CN5, IE5, and GB6.

In the underlying database table DFKKBPTAXNUM, tax numbers categorized from '0' to '4' are stored in the Business Partner Tax Number (technical name TAXNUM) field. For tax numbers 5 and above, the system utilizes the TAXNUMXL field to ensure these values are effectively captured and maintained.

This is standard system design.
