For India GST Update
If you are installing this release for taking advantage of the new functionality for India GST tax regime then there are many additional steps to perform. It is imperative you read and complete these instructions in this order prior to loading the Integration software transports.
- Make sure you are on the correct support pack level for your system and update if necessary. See OSS note 1175384.

note
As a pre-requisite, SAP OSS note number 1175384 must be reviewed and your systems upgraded to the appropriate support pack level per this Note. You must do this prior to importing the other India GST OSS notes listed below AND the pre-requisite update to Determination 5.9.0.0.

INDIA GST SAP OSS NOTES
Now the India Enablement is based on a set of Draft SAP OSS notes that were published at the time of this release. Finalization of the India GST tax laws and SAP’s solution for India GST is still in process. Because of this you will need to install this list of OSS notes manually as part of your installation and configuration tasks prior to development and processing of your India GST solution. Number of notes to install may vary depending on what EHP level you are on.
note
SAP OSS notes clearly specify that it is mandatory that users convert to the tax procedure TAXINN to take advantage of the India GST developments they are providing. All our testing and processes rely on this assumption and usage of TAXINN tax procedure. In theory the older TAXINJ tax procedure may work but we do not test for this and caution users to convert to TAXINN per SAP requirements. If for some reason you cannot convert to TAXINN then we recommend that you talk to your Professional Services representative about alternatives. We do not support the older tax procedure.
As SAP may publish additional OSS notes prior to their final release you may need to address any additional notes by comparing their current list to the list that we have here. Additional notes will require your extra attention, testing and adaptation to this release. We anticipate a patch release that we will complete once the final SAP solution for India GST is final. It should address these additional notes and adjustments.
Please make sure that the following list of OSS notes and their prerequisites have been added to your system prior to our 6.4.2.0 release installation transports. Also do comparisons of this list to OSS note 2421394 to make sure you pick up and install any additional notes that are not identified below:
