Default Codes: Customers, Items and Services
A/R, Customer Record:
Tax codes are associated with customer locations. By default, tax
codes are based on the ‘Ship-to Address’ of a customer in the
Business Partner Master Record.
A/P, Items:
For Item Invoices, the default tax code is based on the default tax
code for the Warehouse receiving the goods. This can be found
using the following path: Administration > Definitions > Inventory >
Define Warehouses
A/P, Services:
For Service Invoices, it is based on the default tax code of the
company which is under Administration > System Initialisation >
Company Details > ‘Accounting’ tab
 SAP AG 2003
Setting up default behaviour for Inventory Items
For each item your business buys or sells, you can decide if the item
is taxable and also by default, whether tax is calculated ‘normally’ or
on a ‘Use Tax’ basis.
 SAP AG 2003
‘Use Tax’ Option
Normal Tax
No Tax
Use Tax
These options can be sent by clicking on the Purchasing
Data tab on the Item Master record, and changing the ‘Tax
Type’ field.
The warehouse used in the A/P document must be defined as
‘Allow Use Tax’. Otherwise, the journal entry for the ‘Use Tax’
item will behave as a ‘No Tax’ Item.
 SAP AG 2003
How Tax is calculated in an Invoice
Depending on the Goods or Services supplied, default tax codes are
generated appropriately.
Customers/Sales Invoices:

For Items and Services it is based on the ‘Ship-to’ location of the Goods
Vendors/Purchase Invoices:

For Items, it is based on the warehouse where the Goods are shipped to

For Services, it is based on the company’s default tax code
Overriding Defaults:

 SAP AG 2003
Can be done for tax on any line item

Setting up default codes for A/P - Vendor Record
You can specify if a vendor is subject to 1099 processing and the default
form and box values to use in invoices. As 1099 information is recorded
at the document level, the user can override the default value invoice
entry, or edit them later.

already processed in your old system. This can be done for each unique
vendor/form/box combination. This can be found under the following path:
