2962580 - Account Determination is Missing for Item Type Deferred Output Tax in the Chart of Accounts Used for Thailand

Symptom

You create a customer invoice for Thailand. In the customer invoice, the product is a service and the tax type is VAT.

When posting this customer invoice, the system reports an error 'Account determination is missing for item type Deferred Output Tax. Specify account determination in chart of accounts AAAA and account determination profile BBBB. Column Path Tax->Output Tax->Deferred Output Tax, Item Type Deferred Output Tax.'. (AAAA represents the ID of chart of accounts; BBBB represents the ID of account determination profile)

You do not understand why it reports an error, and you cannot find a place to maintain deferred output tax.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to General Ledger work center.

  4. You can see the error message 'Account determination is missing for item type Deferred Output Tax. Specify account determination in chart of accounts AAAA and account determination profile BBBB. Column Path Tax->Output Tax->Deferred Output Tax, Item Type Deferred Output Tax.'.
