based on the above calculation.

Assessable field.
 NOTE: The above configuration will post IGST to 3 separate lines for each tax condition type. If you want to post single
IGST tax line,
use subtotal 6 for ECESS and SHCESSin the pricing procedure and implement the logic in imports routine similar to
363 routine to modify condition value.
At the time of Customs MIRO, use zero tax code for ECESS and SHCESS.
3. Perform MIGO and MIRO (normal process).

Imports with BCD Zero
