Hi Everyone,
I have a customer requirement for an OES/ Environmental Fee.
They are of a fixed amount depending on the category and multiplied to the quantity of items sold.
Basically all their items in Item Master Data are tagged with a certain OES code.
Example Item 1 ---- OES1 ($4)
Item 2 --- OES1($4)
Item 3----- OES2 ($5)
So if you sell Item 1 for 5pcs it will have an OES Fee for $4*5pcs = $20 OES fee.
I did some a simulation for OES fee and tested 2 options.
Option 1: As Tax Code
I tried setting up the OES Fee as a tax code and setup the tax code determination for rules related to ship to address, item code, etc.
It works well but the big issue is that for Canada localization the tax is a “rate”.
The fixed amount in tax is available in US localization only.
Option 2: As Freight – row level
I tried placing the OES fee on the row level of the sales document.
This allows us to place a fixed amount instead of rate but the thing is it only posts to a “Revenue” account and not to a liability (tax) account.
Thank you.
