Cause

The Parent Company BBB has the Tax Return Arrangement for Tax Return Type XYZ. Now, while trying to add company AAA as Subsidiary to BBB, it is expected to give error.

Basically, the Subsidiary Company AAA has the Tax Return Arrangement for Tax Return Type XYZ, in the same Tax Authority. It is not possible or not necessary to add a Subsidiary with a Tax Return Arrangement which already exists in the Parent Company BBB.

Resolution

A case has to be raised to SAP. The Subsidiary Company will be updated from backend system by SAP Support.
