Symptom
- In the “Create Supplier Invoice” app, the Withholding Tax amount column appears blank for approvers.
Environment
- Product: SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
- Logistics Invoice Verification (Public Cloud)
Reproducing the Issue
- Define approval rules in the “Manage Workflows for Supplier Invoices” application.
- Create a supplier invoice without purchase order and park it (for example, via MIR7) to initiate the workflow.
- In the “Create Supplier Invoice” app (F0859/F0859A), keep Tax Calculation for Withholding Tax set to “Automatic”.
- Open the invoice for approval and observe that the Withholding Tax amount column is blank in the UI.
Cause
- When Withholding Tax calculation is set to “Automatic”, the UI fields for withholding tax amount/base are not intended for user entry and remain blank; the calculated amounts are written to the FI journal entry after posting and are not shown as user-entered values in the invoice UI.
- The withholding tax will not be displayed to the Approvers of the invoice.
Resolution
- If approvers must see withholding tax amounts in the invoice UI before posting, set Withholding Tax “Tax Calculation” to “Manual Tax Base and Amount”, which enables entry and display of the withholding tax fields.
- If you keep “Automatic” calculation, verify withholding tax in the posted FI journal entry; amounts are visible there by design.
- If withholding tax is not calculated or visible in the FI journal entry, submit a new case under component FI-AP-AP-Q-2CL.
