Last updated on JUNE 09, 2022

Applies to:

Goal

It is unable to add the TAX code for the newly calculated tax amount when creating the balance impact using the PostRatingExtensionContext function "addTaxRatingPeriod(int originalExtRPId, Integer balanceElementId, UnitValue impact,String glCode)" as it is taking the existing TAX CODE which is as part of the Product configurations.

Scenario:
1. Configure the TAX CODE as "VAT" and this is configured as event time taxation in the product and configured the TAX in the Elastic Charging Engine (ECE) "charging-settings.xml"
2. Pass the event for the account with product which has TAX CODE as VAT and the event got rated and taxed as per the configuration.
3. Add post rating extension to calculate the CST on top of VAT and able to create the balance impact using the above mentioned function.
4. It is observed the second balance array for tax has TAX CODE as VAT instead of CST. It does not have any provision to update the TAX CODE as CST instead of VAT in the balance impact array in the ECE post rating extension.
