Tax Code Maintenance? Remember the Transports!

Just a quick reminder: As tempting as it may be to go in and play around with tax codes and tax rates once you enable time-dependent tax calculation, please do remember that any changes in your quality system will be transported to your productive system, and a playful test can have real consequences.

I understand, because it was actually fun playing around in the test systems as this was being developed, but I didn’t have to worry about changing my VAT rate from 19% to 16% and then wondering how I can fix that once it transports into my productive system.

If this happens, you’ll need to contact SAP for support, and that’s just effort you don’t want to expend.

So please, only make changes in your Q system that should be transported to your P system.

Thanks! And if you have any other questions about time-dependent tax calculation, please do let us know—we’ll come back and give the best answer we can.
