Cause

Tax deductibility can not be created via Cloud Application Studio and has to be created directly in the application via Business Configuration.

Resolution

The purchase tax code is to be created via Fine Tuning Activity: Tax on Goods and Services.

Respective Tax Deductibility can be specified in Fine Tuning Activity: Tax Settings for Purchasing.

The same is illustrated in the Localization: Toolkit "Create Tax Content for Non- Localized Countries in SAP Cloud Application Studio" under section 5.5 Configure Tax Codes, sub section 6.

"For tax codes created for purchasing, you must specify if the tax amount is fully deductible, not deductible and so on. Tax deductibility codes cannot be currently configured through PDI, they have to be configured in the fine-tuning activity Tax Settings and Purchasing. The tax codes for purchasing must be configured in fine tuning activity, Tax on Goods and Services -> Define Tax Codes to assign the deductibility codes defined."
