Customer Document Tax Supply Country

Hi,

the logic can be found in the adress types and which address is the default. You might have several delivery addresses for the customer and only one address where the invoice is going to. 

E.g. you deliver to Portugal, Italy, Austria and the invoice goes always to France but the customer is registered in each delivery country..

In that case you have one DEFAULT DOCUMENT ADDRESS where you can handle all tax ID’s of the customer for the different delivery countries. And you have multiple DELIVERY ADDRESSES where you just handle the delivery tax information.

Kind regards

Hi @Ralph Gericke,

First of all, thanks for the explanation!
 

I understand the logic you wrote, and can now see an example for having different delivery countries for the same address and therefore have different tax numbers, if we consider the document address is only to receive the document and the invoicing is to be done on the delivery country.

However, I still don’t understand how we can have different supply countries for the same address and have the possibility to have different tax numbers? Are you able to think of an example?

Thanks in advance,

Hi Carlos,

in case you have multiple sites (in different countries) that you deliver from, you have different supply countries. E.g. you might deliver from the US site or from a site in the  to an customers EU address. For the first one a tax number is not mandatory while it is mandatory inside the EU.

Kind regards

Yes, we have different sites in different countries, so I understand the concept of having different supply countries.

What I don’t understand is, if we supply to one delivery address, is it possible for the tax number of the customer to change, depending on supply country?

That for me doesn’t make sense, however that is what I assume the tab allows as a possibility?

Or are you saying that the only example, is when the vat number is mandatory, or not, depending on the supply country and the delivery address?

Hi @Ralph Gericke,

Thanks for your help!
