PBI 233701 - Tax by bin - default Sales Excise type (outbound)

What

Default Sales Excise type (outbound)

Why

Sales order lines always got the location excise type (boded or tax paid) based on the customer, assuming you would always pick from tax paid bins for tax paid customers. That is not always the case. Also for tax paid customers the default bins to pick from may be bonded, by exception changed into a tax paid bin.

How

  1. Search for Locations.
  2. Open the mixed tax location card.
  3. On the Tax Management FastTab, in the Sales Excise type (Outbound) field, set the default excise type for sales order shipments. blank: the excise type in a sales order line will be determined by the customer, tax paid or bonded.
  • Bonded: the excise type is by default bonded. Warehouse picks will take from bonded bins, but a user may change it there to tax paid.
  • Tax Paid: select this only when all customers are tax paid and you always pick from tax paid bins.
  1. Select the Bonded option.
  2. Create a new sales order for a tax paid customer, select the mixed tax location and a tax relevant item.
  3. Release the order.
    The Document Tax lines are created based on tax rules from a bonded location to a tax paid customer.
  4. Create a warehouse shipment for the sales order. The warehouse shipment lines show the bonded shipment bin.
  5. Create a warehouse pick, the pick lines show bonded bins to take from.
    In case there is enough available stock on a tax paid bin for a sales order line, you can change the bin code manually to that tax paid bin. It is mandatory to have all pick lines for a same sales order line to have the same excise type (either all bonded or all tax paid). This will update the excise type in the sales order line and the warehouse shipment line.

PBI 204446 Tax by bin - Wrong excise type place bin in warehouse Put-away

What

When a warehouse receipt was posted on a mixed tax location, the put-away would consequently place the goods in a bin with the same excise type. Except when for an item a default bin was set in the item bin contents. That has been resolved, now the warehouse put-away for a mixed tax location will always suggest bins to place of the same excise type bonded or tax paid.

PBI 233692 - Tax by bins should also post tax entries from inventory movements (Internal- and Warehouse movements)

What

For mixed tax locations tax ledger entries are also posted on internal movements from a bonded bin to a tax paid bin. That did not happen when registering through an Inventory Movement document. That has been resolved.

PBI 235147 - Tax by bins - excise type not filled in item bin content

What

For a mixed tax locations, a new item item bin content line did not inherit the excise type from the bin. That has been resolved.

PBI 236721 - Don’t create a Tax Charge line when the Amount in a Document Tax Line = 0,00 according to the General Ledger Amount Rounding

What

Don’t create a Tax Charge line when the Amount in a Document Tax Line = 0,00 according to the General Ledger Amount Rounding.

Why

In Sales and Purchase documents, Tax Item Charges should not be created when the Line Amount for a charge = 0.

  • The check was based on the Amount in Document Tax Line. But this amount is rounded according to the Tax Management Amount Rounding. In the sales or purchase line amount, the rounding is according to the General Ledger Amount Rounding. This means, that when the Tax Amount Rounding has more decimals, a charge could still be created and could result in a posting error.
  • The check is now:
    • When Document Tax Line Amount (Rounded according to Gen. Ledger Setup Amount Rounding) <> 0, then create charge line.
