Tax Usage Maintenance
Tax Usage
Enter a code (maximum eight characters) that identifies a group of customers, suppliers, or items subject to special taxation on a specific transaction.
If rates can differ by transaction based on the nature of operation of the supplier or customer or the intended use of the item, set up tax usage codes to reference during transaction entry.
For Brazil, you must specify tax usages for sales or purchasing transactions involving legal documents. Tax usages are validated when if you select the Maintain Operational Type in Tax Usage field in Legal Document Control.
Description
Enter a brief (maximum 24 characters) description of the tax usage code. This field is required.
Multiple language descriptions are supported. The description text you initially enter is associated with the language defined for your user ID. If you respond Yes when prompted to modify other language descriptions, you can specify alternate descriptions in other active languages. The system creates a label term based on your description, which can also be modified in Label Master Maintenance.
Users who have these languages associated will see tax usage descriptions in their language in lookups, reports, and maintenance programs.
The Tax Usage Inquiry and Tax Usage Report can be sorted by description as well as by tax usage if the tax usage is left blank and a description is specified.
You activate the Legal Information frame in Tax Usage Maintenance when you select the Maintain Operational Type in Tax Usage field in Legal Document Control.

Validating Tax Usages
Tax usages are validated in all functions involved in the issue and receipt of notas fiscais. You must specify a tax usage when recording transactions for notas fiscais, and the tax usage you specify must be correct for the type of operation. You cannot proceed with a transaction if you leave the Tax Usage field blank or if you enter an incorrect tax usage.
Example:  
In this example, the tax usage 90ECP-03 is associated with the Purchase operation in Tax Usage Maintenance, and tax usage 90EDV-01 is associated with the Sales Return operation in Tax Usage Maintenance.
When creating a purchase order in Purchase Order Maintenance (5.7), you specify 90ECP-03 as the tax usage. When you click Next, you can proceed with creating the purchase order because you have specified the correct tax usage for the type of operation.
