I. GLOBAL SETTINGS
In the following activities, you make the global settings for working with Country
Version India.
1. Company Settings
Maintain the values here and avoid filling the selection parameters repeatedly during
document creation.
This start month represents the month for the start of the excise invoice number
range. The month 04 is entered here indicating April of the calendar year as the start
month for excise invoices. Any change by the Excise authorities regarding start
month should be taken care of by an entry in this field and initialisation.
Excise invoice selection type. To Indicate the method opted by the company for
selecting the excise invoice. It can be either earliest or latest invoices that were
received.
Example
If the value of this field is 30 and today is 31-03-2001. The excise invoice selection will
show the related invoices only for the period 01-03-2001to 31-03-2001.
This indicator is to be used for deciding whether Item level excise duty
amount rounding off is required. If marked 'X' then the excise duty
amount will be rounded off to the nearest rupee.
CAUTION: The above two indicators should not be selected as these indicators only
round the ED amounts to the nearest rupee i.e., commercial rounding. As this is not
the requirement as per Indian Excise Duty Rules and rounding off should be always
up to next Rupee, this special requirement is taken care by way of a User Exit. In
view of this, keep the above two fields blank. Otherwise, MODVAT will not work.
Instructs the system, when you verify a goods receipt for capital goods,to immediately
post half of the input excise duty to the appropriate CENVAT accounts.
The rest is posted the CENVAT on hold account, for use in the following year.
13. CVD Account - CVD Clearing Account to be mentioned here for posting CVD
component of Ecise Duty. The GL Acvcount is 40054.
14. Exchange rate type : You enter the exchange rate type to store different
exchange rates. M is the average exchage rate.
15. Exchange rate type to be used for Export excise duty convers. This is also M only.
2. Excise Registration ID
In this activity, you maintain excise registration IDs. You create one ID for each of your
business's excise registrations.
Activities
For each excise registration in your business create a registration ID, and state:
o Which taxes the registration covers (additional excise duty, special excise duty,
and cess) Fields for any taxes that are not covered will be hidden in transactions
involving excise duty.
Settings made :
Excise Registration ID
For Chemical Plant, Mumbai & Engineering Division, Mumbai - Following are the
settings made:
Similarly, these details should be configured for other plants - Vapi, Dadra and
Barotiwala during roll-out of SAP to these plants.
3. Plant Settings
Both Mumbai Chemical Plant and Engineering Plant do come under same
Registration ID 999.
Number of GRs( Goods Receipts) per Excise Invoice should alos be mentioned in this
screen.
4. Excise Groups
An excise group allows you to maintain a separate set of excise registers and excise
accounts. The RG 23A , RG 23C and PLA serial numbers are created for an excise
group.
If a company has only one set of excise registers then. only one excise group is to be
maintained.
o Create one excise group for each set of registers that you need to keep.
o Assign the excise groups to plants.
Only one Excise Group is created for Chemical Division and assigned to Mumbai
Chemical Plant.
As the Registers are to be maintained for Engineering Plant, separater Excise Group
has to be defined for Engineering Plant.
In this activity, you define the different excise series groups within your company.
Series groups allow you to maintain multiple number ranges for the outgoing excise
documents.
Example
Based on excise regulations and exemptions from the authorities you can maintain
multiple number series for outgoing documents. But each of these series has to be
declared to the excise authorities
Activities
Path
We have defined only one Series Group for all outgoing excise invoices.(More series
groups may have to be defined basing on the requirements of the user. One more
Series Group is required for 57F4 Documents as expressed by the Excise Head of the
user company.)
6. Excise Defaults
In this activity, you define which tax procedure and pricing condition types are used in
calculating excise taxes.
Activities
o Enter the tax procedure and the pricing conditions that are relevant for excise tax
processing.
o Specify the purchasing and sales conditions types used for basic excise duty
(BED), additional excise duty (AED), special excise duty (SED), and cess.
o Specify the conditions in the sales order that are used for excise rates.
o Specify the counter vailing duty (CVD) condition type used for import purchase
orders.
Path
(Presently the Client Company has to pay only BED but not AED or SED or CESS.
These entries are not required and they are superfluous)
Three Indicators 1,2 and 3 are defined for posting the Excise at Normal rate, 50%
concession and Nil duty respectively.
The use of these Indicators are explained at the appropriate place elsewhere in this
documentation.
II. ACCOUNTING
In the following activities, you set up the G/L accounts that are to be used for excise
duty.
In this activity, you specify which G/L accounts (for excise duty and CENVAT) are to
be posted to for the various transaction types. Enter all the accounts that are affected
by each transaction type.
Example
GRPO CR CLEAR
GRPO CR RG23BED
GRPO DR ONHOLD
Path
Following are the settings made available in SAP for all types of transactions
The above screens indicate all types of transactions with various types of Excise Duty
and other Excise Accounts. The above settings are not disturbed as they indicate all
types of Accounting Entries in various scenarios.
The following entries denote the exact entries necessary for the user:
Transactions
RG 23 BED Account Dr
RG 23 BED Account Dr
RG23 BED/PLA Payable Dr
PLA BED account Dr
To Excise Duty Paid A/c
To CENVAT suspense account
RG 23 BED account Dr
To CENVAT clearing account
RE 23 BED Account Dr
To CENVAT Clearing Account
15. UTLZ Fortnightly Utilization
In this activity, you assign the excise and CENVAT accounts to G/L accounts.
For most businesses, one set of accounts will suffice for all transactions.
For each excise group, assign the excise and CENVAT accounts to G/L accounts
separately.
In this activity, you can maintain minimum balances in your excise accounts. When
the balance in these accounts during utilization falls below this level, the system
automatically utilizes funds in the PLA account.
Maintain the minimum balance amount for the excise accounts. If you have more
than one excise group, you can maintain different minimum balances.
In Excise Group 99, the following amounts are maintained as Minimum Balances:
No minimum balance is required to be maintained for PLA on Hold A/c as the balance
in PLA on Hold A/c is not available for utilization.
III. LOGISTICS
In the following activities, you make the logistics settings for use in Country Version
India.
1. Subcontracting
For the movement type 541, maintain the field Purchase Order as
an optional entry or as a required entry.
Maintain the Program, FORM Routine and the Form for the Output Type.
Output device can be maintained here. The Print Immediately option can also
be maintained here.
Subcontracting Attributes
The conditions such as the number of excise items per subcontracting challan, if the
non excisable materials have to be filtered or not when the subcontracting challan is
created, the movement type groups for Issues and Receipts and the hierarchy of
determining the excise base value are mentioned here.

In this activity, you specify which movement types relating to goods receipt involve
excise invoices.
The system uses this information during the goods receipt procedure. When you post
a goods receipt using one of the movement types that you have specified here, the
system will prompt you to enter the excise invoice number.
Note
This option cannot be used for processing goods receipts without purchase order.
(Check up whether the above entries are required for Movement Types
105 & 501.)

Pricing
This is a template of pricing procedure for Sales from Factory. JMAN is a manual
condition for Excise. When manual override is required for the calculated excise value
it could be given for the condition JMAN. The condition value formula 355 checks and
copies this on to the Basic Excise duty value. UTXJ is the condition in JFACT which
triggers the calculated call of tax procedure TAXINJ. Condition records need to be
maintained for UTXJ with the appropriate tax code. Access sequence JIND has been
assigned to the condition UTXJ. Base value for calculation of excise derived from the
condition base value formula 351. This ensures that if an assessable value is
maintained for the material through Excise rate maintenance (J1ID) then that will be
used as basis for excise calculation. In the absence of an assessable value the selling
price will be used for excise calculation.
JMOD is a FI Tax condition which gets the Basic Excise duty from calculation formula
352. JEX2 is a copy of JMOD and is a Sales pricing condition. The value of JEX2 gets
posted for Excise account key. This ensures that the cost accounting of excise value
paid is done correctly. In cases where commercial invoice is created after utilization
the condition value formula 353 ensures that the actual MODVAT utilized is accounted
as excise. Similarly JAED is a FI Tax condition which gets the Additional Excise duty
from calculation formula 352. JEXA is a copy of JAED and is a Sales pricing condition.
The accounting is done for the value of JEXA. JSED is a FI Tax condition which gets
the Special Excise duty from calculation formula 352. JEXS is a copy of JSED and is
a Sales pricing condition. The accounting is done for the value of JEXS. JCES is a FI
Tax condition which gets the CESS from calculation formula 352.
JCED is a copy of JCES and is a Sales pricing condition. The accounting
is done for the value of JCED.
Both CST and LST rates are maintained in one tax code in the same jurisdiction.
(Refer Tax code V8 ). The rates are maintained at the tax v code level. But then
requirement formulae are attached to the LST and CST tax conditions in the tax
procedure. The requirement formula 351 decides whether CST is applicable based on
the Region of the ship-to party and the region of the delivering plant being different.
The requirement formula 352 decides whether LST is applicable based on Region of
the ship-to party and the region of the delivering plant being same.
You can enhance the requirement formula to add your own logic for deciding whether
the tax applicable is CST or LST. All the fields specified in the pricing field catalog are
available in the formula.
Important:
If you are not using requirement formula to decide on the sales tax remove it from the
Tax procedure as well as pricing procedure. Sales tax rates needs to be maintained
separately for each jurisdiction
LST and CST rates are maintained in different tax codes at different jurisdiction.
( Refer tax code V5 and V6 ) Default
There is no Excise condition in the Exports pricing. But excise can be calculated at
MODVAT utilization.
Stock transfer pricing has only excise conditions as it is used only for the calculation
of excise value.
Depot pricing procedure is exactly similar to the Factory pricing procedure with the
exception that the condition value formula attached to the excise condition is 356.
This ensures that the excise value from the referred excise invoices for the delivery is
picked up and used by the commercial invoice.
Output Determination:
Create an output type and maintain the Driver program, Form routine and the layout
Driver program is the name of the program that the system calls up to process the
output
Layout is the name of a Sap script layout set that can be designed as per user
requirement
To enable printing of particular document for partner function, maintain the desired
partner function against the output type.
When excise and commercial invoice are different, i.e. Multiple excise

Formula 310:
The added functionality of this routine ensures that the excise posting takes place
before the billing document is created. In case of depot sale it ensures that the excise
invoice selection has taken place before the billing document is created.
Formula 311:
The additional check done in this routine is that post goods issue is done for the
delivery document and it also prevents multiple creation of the billing/pro forma
document to which this formula is attached multiple times for the same delivery item.
This routine splits the items of a delivery into multiple billing/ proforma documents.
The split is based on the following fields : Distribution channel, division, delivery,
chapter id and also the maximum number of items in a document is picked up from
the customization and imposed on the document being created
CIN India Localization Menu Sales & Distribution Sales & Distribution
Customisation.
The excise invoice can be created in combination with the customer invoice or
separately (using a Proforma-type invoice). These options are represented in the
system by different document types and document flows. You need to identify the
billing document types that will be used as reference for Modvat utilization and assign
them to the respective delivery document types. Based on the assignment the system
will also carry out consistency checks and validations.
Requirements
o Create separate delivery types using IMG -> Sales and Distribution
->Shipping -> Deliveries - > Define Delivery types
o Setup copy control for the delivery types using IMG ->Sales and
Distribution -> Shipping -> Deliveries - >Specify copy control for
Deliveries
o Create Billing types using IMG -> Sales And Distribution ->
Billing-> Billing Documents -> Define Billing Types
o Setup copy control for the billing types using IMG -> Sales And
Distribution -> Billing -> Billing Documents ->Maintain copy control
Standard Settings
Setup has the delivery types LF anf JF defined for standard order OR. Billing type
JEX has been defined for Proforma excise document. Copy control is set as OR -> LF
-> JEX -> F2 and OR -> JF -> F2
Recommendation
It is recommended that you use the standard setup in the delivered system. But if you
so wish you can have your own document types but you need to ensure that all the
steps in the preconditions have been carried out.
CIN India Localization Menu Sales & Distribution Assign Excise Invoice
Billing Types to Delivery Types
Please Check up whether all Billing Types & Delivery Types which are being used by
the user are included. The entries not required are to be eliminated
3. Utilization Determination
In this activity, you specify which CENVAT accounts are to be debited by the Fortnight
Utilization of CENVAT report: When the report calculates how much excise duty you
must remit, it automatically proposes which CENVAT accounts the duty should be
debited to. Here, you specify those defaults.
o Debit the excise duty to more than one account, in which case you specify which
percentage is to be debited to each account
Example
If you want 50% of basic excise duty (BED) to be debited to the RG 23A account and
the remaining 50% to the RG 23C account, you would make the following settings:
Alternatively, to debit all of the BED to the RG 23A account, and then RG 23C
account, if there is not enough in the RG 23A account, you would make the following
settings:
When you come to run the report, the system takes the RG 23A account because it is
the first one you have entered. If this account does not cover the BED, the system
takes the RG 23C account instead.
(Check: Second entry PLA on Hold and third entry CENVAT Reversal are not
required)
In this activity, you can specify which excise group and series group you want to
appear in these fields by default. You can make separate settings for different
combinations of sales organization, distribution channel, division, and shipping point.
Activities
This activity is optional, unless you want the system to automatically create outgoing
excise invoices when you create a customer invoice.
In this case, you must also make the appropriate setting in Customizing for Global
Settings, by choosing Excise Groups and selecting E (Create Excise Invoice
Automatically).

VI. TAX DEDUCTED AT SOURCE
This solution supports company codes for which you have activated the extended
withholding tax option. To use this solution, you have to work through:
In the standard IMG, ignore the activities for certificate printing, since this feature
is covered by other activities in the CIN IMG. However, for the certificate printing
programs to work, you must select No certificate numbering in the tax types.
The various sections of the Income Tax Act are mapped to official withholding tax
keys field of the tax code. We therefore recommend that you assign official keys
to all tax codes.
The tax types used for one-time vendors must not be enabled for accumulation.
In the Address details for Business Place ensure that the following mapping to print
the details in the certificate
In this activity, you define the business places that are covered by your enterprise.
Requirements
Activities
Enter the required information, for example, type of industry or tax codes.
In this activity, you specify which document types you want to use for adjustments to
withholding tax items and withholding tax on clearing accounts.
In this activity, you define which G/L accounts need to be adjusted by the Calculation
of Withholding Tax on Clearing Accounts report.
Enter each G/L account that you want the report to cover, specifying the company
code.
In this activity, you specify to which G/L accounts the system must post:
In the case of the withholding tax on clearing accounts, it isrecommend that you
maintain separate G/L accounts for each tax type.
For most businesses, a single account will suffice for all losses incurred by
adjustments to withholding tax items.
We have not identified any GL Accounts as the client has no requirement for posting
Losses incurred by adjustments to withholding tax items.
In this activity, you effectively specify which days the tax offices that you work with are
open. The system uses this information when you post a vendor invoice, so that it can
allow for public holidays when it determines the tax due date.
This activity is optional. If you do not make any entries, the system still determines the
tax due date, but without reference to any factory calendar.
Requirements
You have maintained factory calenders for each of the calendars followed by the tax
offices.
Activities
In this activity, you maintain the various tax due dates. Because due dates can differ,
depending on the withholding tax type and recipient type, you can maintain the dates
at this level.
Note :-
Make sure that you maintain entries for all the recipient types that you use.
Activities
For each permutation of official withholding tax key and recipient type, specify when
the tax has to be remitted:
o Where tax is due on the seventh day of each month, enter 777 in the
tax due date field.
In this activity, you specify which document type the withholding tax remittance report
is to use to post clearing documents
In this activity, you group together the permutations of company code, business place,
and official withholding tax key that you want to remit withholding tax for. You can
assign the same group number to more than one permutation, if you need to.
The Number Group maintained in the step ' Maintain Number Groups' is attached to a
Number Key here. This number key is referred to in the number range maintenance.
This two step maintenance facilitates maintenance of number ranges for 3 entities -
company code, Business Place and section.
In this activity, you maintain the number ranges that the system is to use to number
the challans.
Activities
Define a number range for each number group that you have defined in the previous
activity.
In this activity, you make the settings required for when you:
Activities
Specify:
We recommend that you define a separate customer tax creditable account for each
section of the Income Tax Law (that is, for each official withholding tax key). Then,
when you come to post tax withholdings made by your customers, the tax is posted to
different accounts, depending on the section. This procedure makes it easier for you
when you come to choose which tax items you want to clear.
In this activity, you specify which SAPscript forms you want to use to print the vendor
withholding tax certificates.
Requirements
You must have created the SAPscript forms already. A form is supplied with the
standard system, J_1IEWTCERT, which you can use as the basis for creating your
own forms.
Activities
For each section of the Income Tax Law (official withholding tax key):
Specify which SAPscript form you want to use If different tax offices require different
forms, you can enter different forms for different offices.
Specify what number group you want for each certificate. Ultimately, this information
determines which number range the system uses to number the certificates. You
assign the number range to the number group in the next two activities.
In this activity, you assign the number groups to number ranges, both of which you
defined in the previous two activities. For Classic TDS certificate Printing, the Number
groups are assigned t o sections . For EWT
In this activity, you maintain the number ranges that the system is to use to number
the vendor withholding tax certificates.
Activities
Define a number range for each number group that you have defined in the previous
activity.
In this activity, you maintain your vendors' personal account numbers (PANs). This
information is then printed on their withholding tax certificates.
Activities
Carry out this activity for all of the vendors that you withhold tax from.
I. MASTER DATA
1. Chapter ID
On this screen, all Chapter IDs and corresponding descriptions as described in the
excise tariff structure are incorporated. This information is used when you create
excise invoices and is also shown in the various excise registers.
On this screen, the excise data relating to materials are maintained. For each
material, the following are specified:
Chapter ID
Whether the material can be sent to subcontractors
The material type
This denotes, for example, whether the material is a raw material, a capital good –
this affects the CENVAT process – or if it is a finished good on which excise has been
paid, to be covered by the Update of RG 1 and Part I Registers.
Whether you accept more than one goods receipt per excise invoice, and if so,
whether the excise duty should be credited to the CENVAT account
immediately a goods receipt is posted (multiple credit) or not until all the goods
receipts have arrived (single credit)
This information is valid for a given plant. If the information is valid for all of your
plants, however, leave the Plant field blank.
On this screen, you maintain the net dealer price and the assessable value of all
materials that you send to subcontractors.
These values serve as the excise base value when you send the material to
subcontractors and tells the system how much excise duty to reverse from your
CENVAT account should the subcontractors fail to return the materials to you within
the given time limit
4. CENVAT Determination
On this screen, you specify which raw materials are used to produce which finished
(or semi-finished) goods. The system uses this information to determine whether it
you can claim a CENVAT credit for a material.
On this screen, you enter your vendors' tax registration numbers, which are used for
various forms of correspondence and reports:
Excise registration number (and the range, division, and collectorate in which
this is located)
Central sales tax (CST) number
Local sales tax (LST) registration number
Permanent account number (PAN)
In order for the system to be able to calculate which rate of excise duty to apply on
purchases from the vendor, you must also:
Assign it a vendor excise duty status
If the vendor qualifies as a small-scale industry (SSI), you must also specify:
What its SSI status is (which you must first have defined under SSI
rates, see below)
Whether or not it is participating in the CENVAT scheme
On this screen, you enter your customers' tax registration numbers, which are used
for various forms of correspondence and reports:
Excise registration number (and the range, division, and collectorate in which
this is located)
Central sales tax (CST) number
Local sales tax (LST) registration number
Permanent account number (PAN)
In order for the system to be able to calculate which rate of excise duty to apply on
sales to the customer, you must also assign it a customer excise duty status.
3. SSI Rates
On this screen, you define the excise rates that apply to purchases from vendors that
qualify as SSIs. You define one status for each band (or "slab") of sales volume
provided for by the law, and for each SSI status, the rates of excise duty that applies
to that slab under the two schemes.
Small-scale industry status - for entering excise duty percentage for vendors that
qualify as small-scale industries.
Procedure
Define a status for each category (or slab) of sales volume. For each slab, specify the
rate of excise duty for:
When you have defined the statuses, assign them to the vendors who qualify as
small-scale industries (go back to the previous screen and choose Vendor Excise
Details ).
Enter the rate of basic excise duty that is to be levied in place of the standard rate.
The rate of basic excise duty that is to be levied in place of the standard rate,
expressed as a percentage of the basic excise duty.
Examples
If a vendor is to levy excise duty at 50% of the standard rate, you would enter 50
here.
This is the rate of duty that will apply if the vendor is participating in the CENVAT
scheme.
On this screen, you enter your plants' tax registration numbers, which are used for
various forms of correspondence and reports:
In order for the system to be able to calculate which rate of excise duty to apply on
purchases from this plant, you must also assign it a plant excise duty.
The values entered here along with the excise indicator for the company are used to
determine the final indicator for excise duty. Excise duty rates are maintained for the
final indicator.
On this screen, you specify for each chapter ID every possible rate of excise duty that
might apply, so you must take into consideration each permutation of plant and
customer; and each combination of plant and vendor.
You can maintain the basic excise rates in the following forms:
Ad valorem
As quantity-based (that is, a fixed amount for a given quantity)
As a combination of both
On this screen, maintain any exceptions that apply to the excise rates that you have
defined. Exceptions can apply to a single material from all vendors, or to a single
material from one vendor only. If you have an exceptional rate for a customer–
material combination, you can maintain it here as well.
As there are no such entries as of now in the client’s business processes, this screen
is left blank.
On this screen, maintain the percentage of local sales tax on inputs that you can
deduct against LST on outputs. The setoff amount is deducted from the inventory
valuation of the material. Currently very few states, for example, Maharashtra and
Gujarat, participate in this scheme.
Entries are not required to be entered here, as sales tax set off will be automatically
taken care of from TAXINJ and the relevant tax codes settings.
