Symptom
You have created a Reported tax payable return; however the reported tax return is not visible for payment in the Tax Payment. Furthermore, the Pay button is grayed out.
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to the Tax Management work center
- Go to the Tax Payments view
- Open the relevant Tax Payment.
In the Open Tax Returns section, you did not find the correct tax return.
- Go to the Sales and Use Tax Returns view.
- Find the Reported tax return.
You see that the Pay button is grayed out.
Cause
- Although this is a tax payable, the Total Payable/Receivable amount is Zero.
- The previous tax return run resulted in a tax receivable from tax authority.
- However, this tax receivable has been carried forward to the current tax return, which has a tax payable in the same amount.
- Refer to the Carry Forward Amount field in the tax return.
Resolution
System behavior is correct. The externally created payments for this tax return can be canceled/reversed.
