3755267 - Withholding Tax Lines Items are not Consolidated on Thailand's Statutory Reports, despite similar WHT Type and Code – SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

• When running statutory reports for Thailand (Thailand Withholding Tax reports such as PND3 or PND53), WHT items from a payment that clears an invoice and a credit note are not consolidated by WHT type and code.
• The payment document displays WHT line items as separate lines despite of similar withholding tax types and codes.
• As a consequence, withholding tax line item from credit note is posted distinctively with negative sign.
• This negative withholding tax posting does not comply with Thailand's reporting regulation.

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.

1. Create Supplier invoice and subsequent credit memo with WHT Type for Payment Posting.
2. Clear documents with Clear Outgoing Payments or Post Outgoing Payments apps.
3. Review the posted Payment document and observe that withholding tax line items from invoices and credit memo are separately posted, withholding tax line item of credit memo is posted with negative sign.
4. Run statutory report for Thailand such as PND3 or PND53 in Run Statutory Reports app and include the payment.

This payment posting behavior is working as designed. Withholding tax amount of line items will not be merged on Payment document, despite of similar WHT type and code.

Confirm that withholding tax amounts of different documents will be displayed as separated line items on payment document. The merging action of withholding tax amount base on similar WHT type and code will not be executed at payment document level, regardless of withholding tax posting modes (payment posting or invoice posting).

Ensure that users handle the payment and run statutory reports properly, then these withholding tax amounts are only aggregated when it comes to withholding tax analytic level - which is once a new run is created in Run Statutory Reports app.
