Analyzing Your Tax Requirements
The following table represents key decisions that you must
make when you analyze your tax requirements and use Oracle Fusion Tax and other
Oracle Fusion applications to implement a solution
Question |
Consideration |
Impact to Tax Configuration |
Who am I? |
You must first answer questions about yourself and your relationship
to the legal and regulatory agencies that enable you to operate in one or
more counties. |
|
Where do I have operations and businesses? |
Identify the countries in which you operate. You will need
to identify the country where you are legally registered and the countries
where you have subsidiary companies that are legally registered or have a
legal presence. |
Use Oracle Fusion Legal Entity Configurator to capture
information about your legal entities and legal registration. |
What taxes am I subject to? |
Analyze your tax environment for each of the countries in
which you operate. |
Set up your tax regimes, taxes, and tax jurisdictions
according to the tax requirements for each country. |
What are the operations and businesses that I have? |
Consider the types of operations and businesses in which
you are engaged and the countries where you have legal entities or reporting
units. The type of industries that you work under (for example, mining,
telecommunications, and pharmaceuticals), the kind of operations in which you
engage (for example, trading, manufacturing, and services), and the scale of
your operations (for example, your turnover, company size, and growth) may
all impact your taxability. |
Use the classifications feature to categorize or classify
your first parties under various classification schemes. In analyzing your operations, you can associate the three
main classifications of a transaction to: What you do: Use transaction fiscal classifications. What products you buy or sell: Use product fiscal
classifications. Who your customers and suppliers are: Use party fiscal
classifications. |
What do I do? |
Identify and classify the transactions that you enter
into. For example, do you primarily sell physical goods? If you do, do you
manufacture them, or do you buy and sell them without additional
manufacturing? Do you sell these goods in another state or province? Do you
export these goods? Do you provide or use services? |
Use Oracle Fusion Tax to create fiscal classifications to
classify and categorize your transactions in a common manner across your
organization. Use these fiscal classifications in tax rules to obtain the
appropriate tax result. |
What products do I buy or sell? |
Determine the products that you buy and sell as they
impact the taxes to which you are subject. For example, you must register
for, and therefore collect and remit, service taxes only if you provide
taxable services. If you manufacture goods for export, you may not be subject
to taxes on the purchases that go into the manufacture of such goods. |
Where Oracle Fusion Inventory is installed use the
Inventory Catalog feature with Oracle Fusion Tax product fiscal
classifications and intended use functionality to classify the taxable nature
and intended use of the items. You can then define tax rules using these
classifications to obtain the appropriate tax result. Define
product category and noninventory-based intended use fiscal classifications
to address classification needs for transactions that do not use inventory
items. |
Who are my customers and suppliers? |
Determine the types of customers and suppliers with whom
you do business, as they can impact the taxes to which you are subject or the
tax status or tax rate that applies. For example, let's say that you are a
company in the UK that supplies physical goods to another country that is
also a member of the European Union. The transaction rate for UK VAT is dependent
on whether the customer is registered for VAT in the country to which the
supply is made. |
Use the party classifications feature to categorize or
classify your customers and suppliers. You can use these classifications in
your tax rules to derive the appropriate tax result. You
create a party fiscal classification by assigning an Oracle Fusion Trading
Community Model class category to a party fiscal classification type code
that you define. The Trading Community Model class codes defined under the
class category become fiscal classification codes belonging to the party
fiscal classification type. You can create a hierarchy of party fiscal
classification types to reflect the levels of codes and subcodes within the
Trading Community Model classification. |
