Purpose

Prior to 8.9, there was no way to handle taxes to be paid against payable freight charges in the Transportation Management System. There is a business need to identify these taxes to allow the customer to match vouchers correctly from the Freight Audit History.

In 8.9 and later releases:

Tax information is now determined at a charge code level. If a charge code is set up to be taxable, the tax information would come from the carrier’s data on the Supplier Master. (OVRTAX = 0 in the F4981)
Tax information can also be determined at a routing entry level. This will give the client the ability to override the charge code/carrier taxing information for a specific route. (OVRTAX = 1 in the F4981)
If a charge code is taxable and the routing entry has an N in the taxable field, the charge code will be used. This will not allow a routing entry to override a taxable charge code to not taxable. In order to completely override a charge code taxable of ‘Y’ at the routing level exempt from taxing, the routing entry must have an ‘E’ or a blank in the Tax Explanation Code and a ‘Y’ in the Taxable field. This combination will tell the tax calculator (B4001090 – TaxCalculator) no taxes are to be calculated.
Tax information has also been added to the F49501 table for intermodal routes.
