System Response
Error message
How to fix this error?
Enter a valid tax code.
If the document was not created directly via an accounting transaction,
then the preliminary work area must make sure that a valid tax code is
transferred to the accounting interface. You must therefore check the
Customizing settings of the relevant application to ensure that a
corresponding tax code is also determined and transferred when a line
item is created for this account.
In Customizing for Accounting, you can also define two tax keys that
flag the items as non-taxable for transactions not relevant to tax.
These indicators are then set to the corresponding items by the
accounting interface.
If necessary, the G/L account can also be set so that the tax code is
not a required entry when posting transactions not relevant to tax.
The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
