3757074 - Error FS215 in app Import Supplier Invoices while Create Incoming Invoices works fine SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Symptom

In SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, encounter error FS215 "Only output tax is allowed for account & &, & is not allowed" in app Import Supplier Invoices, while using same parameters and conditions in app Create Incoming Invoices, no error is encountered during posting.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Open the app Import Supplier Invoices.
  2. Upload supplier invoice items using the standard template and attempt to post.
  3. The system raises error FS215: “Only output tax is allowed for account & &, & is not allowed.”
  4. When posting the same data manually in the app Create Incoming Invoices (FB60), the document posts without the error.

Cause

The tax code entered involves EU tax code scenario such as reverse charging.

The Import Supplier Invoices app validates the tax code on all generated G/L line items against tax customizing via the accounting interface, while Create Incoming Invoices (FB60) only validates the entered line.

The affected tax code configuration is incomplete: the EU code for the tax code is not set as required, leading to FS215 during the import scenario.

Resolution

Maintain EU code as 9 in the field EU code under properties tab for tax code involved in SSCUI 101016 Define Tax Codes for Sales and Purchases.
