Symptom
You changed manually the Calculated Taxes for a supplier invoice in the tab General, sub-tab Taxes. Upon saving the change, you get an error: Tax amount ABC differs from calculated tax amount DEF.
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign.
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to the work center Supplier Invoicing.
- Go to the view Invoices and Credit Memos.
- Select the invoice and choose Edit.
- Go to the tab General, sub-tab Taxes, sub-tab Tax Details.
- Enter the desired Tax Amounts.
- Choose Save or Check.
