Environment
- Financial Accounting (FI)
- SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Cause
The tax category is blank in App Manage G/L Account Master Data (App ID F0731A)
Resolution
In app Manage G/L Account Master Data the setting of the field Posting without tax allowed means that the Tax code is not a required/mandatory field. It indicates that the account can still be posted to even if a tax code has not been entered. If you do enter a tax code when posting to this account, the system checks the entry against the Tax Category
If you wish to post an item with a tax code, you need to change the Tax Category in section Control data of company code app Manage G/L Account Master as per your business requirements to one of the following:
- Only input tax allowed
+ Only output tax allowed
* All tax types allowed
Alternatively use another account, which is tax relevant.
