SAP Note 15788 - Batch input and taxes

Symptom:

Problems in batch input RFBIBL00 when posting with taxes

Other terms

STEB, F5205

Reason and Prerequisites

Changed tax handling

Solution

There are three basic ways to post taxes:

1. Have the system calculate the taxes (BBKPF-XMWST = 'X'), you do not need BBTAX and BBSEG-WMWST is filled with NODATA indicators. You can define the NODATA indicators in field BGR00-NODATA. This is the only way you can transfer taxes in Transaction FB05.

2. Enter the taxes in BBSEG: Fill BBSEG-WMWST, but make quite sure that the vendor/customer line is the first line in the document. This is because entry aid WMWST only works in the first document line; otherwise the tax amount is not ready for input and you will have to enter the taxes on the separate tax screen.

3. Transfer taxes using BBTAX (record type '2'). In this case, BBKPF-XMWST and BBSEG-WMWST are filled with NODATA indicators. Taxes are then transferred in the separate BBTAX structure (possibly compressed). Transfer the BBTAX structure after the BBSEG entries. If you use the direct input method of data acquisition, this is the only way to transfer taxes. If you start Transaction FB05 (Post with clearing) however, it is not possible for you to use this method.
