Sales Tax Isn't an Issue for Us

Infor LX | BPCS | Infor LN | Baan

"Sales tax isn't an issue for us because all of our customers are exempt."   - Finance Manager, Manufacturing Co.

ARE YOU SURE YOU'VE GOT IT RIGHT?

One of the biggest misconceptions companies have in the manufacturing and distribution industries is that when you don’t charge sales tax, you don’t need to be concerned with sales tax compliance. In the post-Wayfair world, it is paramount for businesses to understand their nexus and the implications of that nexus.

Here are some questions you should be asking yourself to make sure you've got it right:

  • Are you selling into states you are not currently filing a sales tax return in? (including exempt sales)
  • Could your sales tax return process be improved?
  • Is your exemption certificate process audit-ready?

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

Tips: LN | Baan

Use this session to define simulated purchase prices for purchased items per site.

Field Information:

  • Cost Calculation Code - price calculation code
  • Item

The raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools that can be purchased, stored, manufactured, and sold.

An item can also represent a set of items handled as one kit, or which exist in multiple product variants.

You can also define nonphysical items, which are not retained in inventory but can be used to post costs or to invoice services to customers. The examples of nonphysical items:

  • Cost items (for example, electricity)
  • Service items
  • Subcontracting services
  • List items (menus/options)
     
  • ​Site - The site for which the purchase price is simulated.
  • Purchase Currency - The currency of the simulated purchase price.
  • Simulated Price - Purchase price

The simulated purchase price and currency are recorded twice.

  • Simulated Price Multi Currency - The purchase price in multiple currencies.

The simulated purchase price and currency are recorded twice. The amount in this field is related to the price of the supplier.

  • Unit - Purchase price unit
  • Cost Component - The cost component that must be of the type Material Costs.

Note: The cost component specified in this field does not become part of the standard cost detail structure if it is part of the cost component scheme of the selected item. If calculations are performed with a calculation code not used for actualization (simulations only), the simulated purchase price is mapped to the cost component defined in the records for this session.
