3572085 - Automatic Adjustment of Withholding Tax Base Amount in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Symptom

  • Upon changing the Withholding Tax Code in a posted invoice, the Withholding Tax Base Amount is automatically adjusted by the system.
  • This automatic adjustment occurs without any manual changes made to the Withholding Tax Base Amount.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Create an supplier invoice using Create Incoming Invoices.
  2. Select the change option from Menu -> Document -> Change.
  3. Go to the supplier line item and click on Withholding Tax Data.
  4. Provide the Selection Date for Determining Relevant Withhldg Tax Type.
  5. Change the Withholding Tax Code.
  6. Observe that the system automatically adjusts the Withholding Tax Base Amount.

Cause

When posting the invoice 1900001367, the withholding tax base amount is manually entered. While changing the withholding tax code, the system recalculates the Withholding Tax Base Amount and Withholding Tax Amount

Resolution

  • If you change the withholding tax code in the posted invoice, the system recalculates the withholding tax amount and withholding tax base amount.
  • If the withholding tax base amount is not manually entered when changing the tax code, the default base amount in the supplier line item is used for calculation.
  • If you change the withholding tax code, it is required to manually enter the withholding tax base amount again. If not, the base amount from the supplier line item will be considered.
