Hi,
I am facing problems determine service category during FB60 Posting Vendor Invoice.
All configuration are done to carryout service category determination.
- Service Category Determination rule for FI-MM: G/L account and Tax Code (J_1IVSERCATMMFI3) Combination.
The rule : Expense Account- V2(Tax Code)-Service category A
- In FB60, the accounting entry with tax code V2 for the expense account: V2 is input service tax code for all service categories.
Cr Vendor 1123.6 INR
Dr Expense Account 1000 INR
Dr Service Tax 120 INR
Dr Service Ecess Tax 2.4 INR
Dr Service HEcess Tax 1.2 INR
After posting, the entries are in J_1ISER_BSEG table with blank service category field.
Supposing if the expense account is related to service categroy A, derived tax line items from expense account should be assigned to service category A.
However the program logic is not in that way. SAP Standard function module J_1I_SERV_CATG_DET_FIINV uses G/L account & Tax Code to assign service category line by line. Here the document has 5 lines
- found a match of Expense Account line item however it's not linked to service tax condition types. it will not be populated into J_1ISER_BSEG table.
- Service Tax/Service Ecess Tax/ HEcess Tax account are linked to service tax condition types, however as service tax account is not set up in determination rule and SAP doesnot utilize dependency on expense account line item to assign service category. Therefore the service category field is blank.
- The temporary solution is to modify the determination rules(MMFI3) :
- service tax account- V2- Service Category A
- service Ecess Tax account V2- Service Category A
- service Ecess Tax account V2- Service Category A
however as service tax account are the same for all service categories and only tax code V2 is for service tax. It's not a good practice to maintain same service tax and tax code combination to sevice category A/B/C etc.
If create one tax code per service category type, that is wasting.
Therfore would like to ask anyone faces this issue before and what is the solution?
Thank you.
