Sales Contracts – Tax Handling for Different Addresses under the Same Customer

In the current setup, the customer is utilizing Sales Contracts for invoicing, where state taxes are applied at the contract header level. However, the same customer operates with multiple delivery and invoice addresses, and the applicable state tax varies depending on the specific address ID.

Since the tax is determined at the Sales Contract header level (and not at the line/item level), the requirement is to assess whether standard IFS functionality supports handling multiple tax structures for the same customer based on different address IDs within a single Sales Contract.

From the Report Codes, it is understood that tax handling can be managed through configuration. However, based on the customer’s scenario, this would not be an optimal or scalable solution, as the tax variation is address-driven rather than report code–driven.

Could you please confirm whether there is available standard functionality in IFS to manage varying tax codes per customer address within Sales Contracts, or whether this would require an alternative approach.

Hi Rasfe,

We have been searching for a solution with standard IFS for Tax Handling for Different Addresses. 

So far it needed to be custom solutions or process adjustments, because Sales Contract tax is managed at the contract header level, where it is applied based on the report code.

Please add a comment if you found a solution.

Thank you in advance.
