Dear All,
Good day!
I am looking for fields to add customers / vendors VAT Number in AX 2009.
I can't seem to find such a field. Could you help me find such a field or create one.

Hi,
Please see the following screenshots
Best regards,

Thank you Dr. Ludwig. Is the name Tax Exempt Number actually a misnomer? Because we have tax exemption numbers which are used for companies which are exempt from paying VAT, like government organizations.
Also when I try to enter a VAT number, it says "Sales tax code not specified for country/region". I'm sort of new to this so please bear with me. :)
Go to Basic > Setup >Addresses > Country/region
In this Form make sure the Country Region has VAT code. You can find that in General Tab. Once you defined the VAT code in this Country/Region form then you create your VAT Number.
The tax exempt number that you can enter in the customer/vendor forms comes from GL/Setup/SalesTax/External/TaxExemptNumbers.
In addition, you have to setup the Country-Region parameters in the Basic module as Saadullah MZ mentioned.
Thank you. I will try this now and update.
So do I fill in the Tax numbers for all customers or only for those who are exempted from tax? If this is only for those customers who are exempted from Tax, I believe this is not the field I am looking for.
Hi oldman.logan,
It depends. In some countries, the government requries to print those number on invoice documents, which would require to enter those tax numbers for all customers. This is something you would have to clarify.
Hi Dr. Ludwig. Yes I understand. My country requires that I enter the VAT numbers for all customers. My doubt is, is it the correct field to enter the VAT numbers for all customers? What I don't understand from this is, why is it called Tax "Exempt" number instead of Tax Number or VAT Number? I believe exemption means those customers to who VAT does not have to be charged. I actually just need a field to enter & record the VAT numbers of all customers and not just customers that are exempted from Tax.
I think this is the right field. If you Switch the language of your application from en-us to en-gb, the field name is VAT number
Probably make the setup in a demo system and run some tests on those customers.
