2.Business area and pca both are useful for internal
reporting purpose but coming to taxes business area is not
supported so now a days all the people are useing pca for
reporting . mainly pca is useful for to know the profit for
a particular product wuse , product grp wise or location
wise if business area is not activated in fi.

1.company is a legal entity we can assign n no os company
code under one company .
company code means we can maintain all financial data

3.account grp : grouping of all the activities in order to
control the master records

5.different fields which are useful for posting

6. fiscal yr variant is nothing but financial yr for
company here we can maintain 2 types of fiscal yr variants
1.calender yr
2.yr dependent fiscal yr
posting period variant: for posting any g/l a/c we need to
open that period for this we need posting period variant

7.withholding taxes
we have 2 types of withholding taxes
1.classical
2.extended
n some countries, a portion of the invoice amount must be
withheld for certain vendors and paid or reported directly
to the tax authorities.
SAP currently provides 2 functions for calculating
withholding tax.
1. Classic withholding tax 2. Extended withholding tax
Extended withholding tax includes all the features of
classic withholding tax and, in addition, also fulfills a
number of further country specific requirements.
If you wish to implement the withholding tax functions in
your organization you should choose extended withholding
tax.
8. taxes on sales and purchases
if we wnat to maintain taxes on sales and purchases we need
to maintain tax procedures the diff between sales tax and
purchases tax we need to pay to the tax authorities

taxes on sales and purchases are levied on every sales
transaction in accordance with the principles of VAT. This
applies to input and output tax, for e.g. input tax is
calculated using the net invoice amount and is charged by
the vendor.
Output tax is calculated using the net price of products
and is charged to the customer.
Companies can offset input tax against output tax, paying
the balance to tax authorities

9.use tax
use tax is a tax that is withheld by vendor. If the vendor
does not charge taxes on taxable transactions or cannot
charge for legal reasons for e.g. the recipient of the
goods is obliged to pay the taxes due to the tax
authorities. This tax increases the expense.

10. value added tax

11.Jurisdiction code
jurisdiction code is a key which determines the tax amount
and the way in which payment of the total tax amount is
divided between different tax authorities. Jurisdiction
codes are used in USA and Brazil.
These codes are made up of 3 levels these are
250221105
25=state code
022=country code
1105=city code.

Change of General Ledger Cost Assignment :- We have two major company codes and plus a minor one. In order to assign intra and inter company costs correctly SAP was set up to assign cost at goods issue to the general ledger account 100000 according to plant. Now we combined two company code into one. Every end of month we must re-class costs out of the plant cost center into the cost center associated with the sales office. It is possible that we directly assign cost to cost center of cost office, how can it be possible? Please tell me how we can make this process easier. Thanks in advance, Manoj
