The taxVatCode field is an old one that isn't used in the current tax
calc stuff using the TaxAuthority and related entities (which do have
some VAT-specific features, and could have more).

As for Ofbiz in particular I noticed there is a TAX VAT code field in
product table..so shouldn't this be used to determine weather VAT is
going
to be calculated on the sale or purchase order and also to wich rate
should
this be calculated?

2) implement automatic tax calculation for purchase orders
With sales tax in the USA the selling party is responsible for
collecting tax on behalf of the government (city, county, state, or
federal). Is that also the case with VAT? My guess is that it is, but
I'm not sure.
The reason I'm thinking about this is there is a reason we don't
calculate tax for purchase orders: it is the responsibility of the
vendor to calculate that tax and tell the purchaser what the tax
liabilities are.
