FF 847

Entry of tax not allowed in current account line

An invoice or accounting document rejects tax entry on a customer/vendor current-account line.

Likely root causes

  1. Tax data is being entered on a line where the account type does not permit that tax treatment.
  2. The interface or posting logic puts the tax code on the wrong document line.
  3. Document/account configuration is inconsistent with the intended tax posting design.

What to inspect

  1. The failing line item and account type.
  2. Tax code placement across vendor/customer and G/L lines.
  3. Interface mapping or substitution logic that populates the tax code.

Resolution path

  1. Move or derive the tax code on the correct taxable posting line according to the process design.
  2. Correct interface mapping if the tax code is populated on the current-account line.
  3. Re-simulate the document and verify tax base and tax amount.
  4. Retest with Finance before reposting productive documents.
