Hello Everybody,
We have a use case similar to :
Or
https://community.ifs.com/finance%2Dfinancials%2D42/duty%2Dcharges%2Don%2Dimports%2D5085
We are currently unsure how to proceed.
For example, in Italy or Spain, there is a plastic tax that is calculated based on specific criteria related to the product. Our suppliers will include this plastic tax as an additional charge on their invoices.
When creating the purchase order, however, the exact tax amount is not yet known. Therefore, we assume that we would need to create a purchase charge on the purchase order line with an initial amount of zero.
The issue arises when the supplier invoice is received: the invoice total will be higher than the purchase order amount because of the plastic tax.
Consequently, when matching the supplier invoice against the purchase order receipt, the amounts will not match exactly.
Could you please confirm whether there are any new functionalities in IFS Cloud 25R2 or 26 that would allow us to automatically apply or calculate the charge amount on the purchase order line when the goods are received, or alternatively derive and apply the charge directly from the supplier invoice during invoice matching?
The issue is also quite similar to the CONAI tax in Italy, which we will need to implement as well.
Any guidance on the recommended standard IFS functionality or process for handling these types of charges would be highly appreciated.
Kind Regards
