Summary :
This SAP consulting note provides detailed guidelines for understanding the calculation of tax bases and cash discounts in the context of invoice verification. Specific settings for tax and discount bases can be designated as gross or net, depending on local legal requirements. For instance, in Great Britain, the tax base is computed post-discount, whereas in Germany, it includes the full invoice amount pre-discount. Multiple transactions in SAP, including OBCP and OBY6, are used for customizing these settings. Additionally, the taxonomy of the cash discount clearing account is crucial, affecting whether postings are gross or net. Practical examples illustrate each possible configuration of tax and cash discount calculations, emphasizing the interplay between the setting options and the resultant accounting entries.
