2526978 - System Crashes When Releasing VAT Return - SAP Business ByDesign

Symptom

The system crashes when you release the VAT Return.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the Tax Management work center.
  2. Switch to the VAT Returns view.
  3. Show Tax Returns in Preparation, find XXX (where XXX represents the Tax Return in Preparation) and press Go.
  4. Click Release.

After a certain period the system crashes (runs into a backend error).

Cause

  • This issue might occur because the amount of data in the VAT Return is too much.
  • You can reduce the amount of data by releasing the VAT Return monthly.

Resolution

  1. Go to the Tax Management work center.
  2. Go to the Periodic Tasks view.
  3. Switch to the VAT Return Runs sub-view.
  4. Press New -> Tax Return Run.
  5. Enter a Run Description.
  6. Choose a Tax Return Arrangement ID.
  7. Select From and To dates: DD.MM.YYYY so that they fall within a month.
  8. Press Set to Active.
  9. Press Save and Close.

The previous error message is not raised when releasing the VAT Return since the data amount has been reduced.
