'Account determination is missing for item type Withholding Tax. Specify account determination in chart of accounts ABC: DEF Chart of Accounts and account determination profile . Column Path Tax->Withholding Tax->Withholding Tax, Item Type Withholding Tax.'

(ABC represents the Account Determination Profile)

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to Payment Management Work center. 
  2. Go to Payment Allocation View. 
  3. Select All Payment Allocations. 
  4. Search for Payment Allocation XYZ.
  5. Click View All.

  7. You will see the following error message: 

'Account determination is missing for item type Withholding Tax. Specify account determination in chart of accounts ABC: DEF Chart of Accounts and account determination profile . Column Path Tax->Withholding Tax->Withholding Tax, Item Type Withholding Tax.'

Cause

You notice that the Withholding Tax tab is not appearing for configuration.

One possible reason is that there are no Countries assigned to the Account Determination Profile ABC, and for this reason the Withholding Tax tab is not appearing for configuration.

Resolution

You need to assign a country to the Account Determination Profile ABC, as follows:

  1. Go to Business Configuration work center. 
  2. Select Overview view.
  3. Search for the activity: Chart of Accounts, Financial Reporting Structures, Account Determination. 
  4. Select Account Determination > Tax. 
  5. Select the Account Determination Profile ABC. 
  6. Click the button "Assign Countries/Regions to Profile".
  7. Assign the Country that is missing.
