1. Open the Create Supplier Invoice app.
2. Enter all the required fields and set the amount.
3. Attempt to post the invoice and observe error FF848: "Entry of tax for &1 &2 is not possible because of tax base 0".

The G/L account assigned for input tax clearing is configured with the tax category "input tax account", which is unsuitable for a tax clearing account.

1. Tax Category '>' - 'Output tax account' should be set only in output tax G/L accounts.

2. Tax Category '<' - 'Input tax account' should be set only in input tax G/L accounts.

1. Identify the G/L account used as the input tax clearing account in the supplier invoice line item.
2. Review the tax category configured for that G/L account in the activity 'Edit G/L Account Centrally'.
3. If the tax category is set to "input tax account" (<) or "output tax account" (>), change it to a clearing category (for example, "*", "-", "+") appropriate for clearing accounts.
4. Save the G/L account changes and retry posting the supplier invoice.
