3595242 - Warning Message - "tax indicator for land/region XX & taxtype YYYY isn't allowed"

Symptom

When we try to execute mass change process for only one field "standard industry" in the app "manage mass maintenance business partners",a warning message "tax indicator for land/region XX & tax type TTX1 isn't allowed" is raised.

Environment

  • SAP Master Data Governance
  • SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Export the data from "Export Master Data-Business Partners"
  2. Navigate to app -Manage Mass Maintenance
  3. Create the process by uploading file
  4. Start and continue the process
  5. At Validation step, the warning message is raised:
    tax indicator for land/region XX & taxtype YYYY isn't allowed

Resolution

  • The messages raised regarding the tax indicator appear, if the BP master were created and afterwards new tax indicators or changes of tax indicators for some countries have been added or changed in the system configuration (e.g. new sales area added).
  • The mass maintenance apps always make a complete check of the business partner in validation to prevent data inconsistencies. In the single maintenance, only changed data will be checked and in this case there would be not the warning. This means, that message will always shown independent on the really changed data.
  • With the principle of MDG Consolidation and Mass Processing, we follow the current state of Object Data Scenario as below:
    Scenario: Current State of Object Data
    SAP MDG, Consolidation and Mass Processing, as well as the Business Partner Web Services use the Current State of Object Data. The applications/web services always handle a complete object with all of its segments and attributes.
