3G397 - Details

• The SAP error message 3G397 indicates that the value-added tax (VAT) code was read locally from the General Ledger (G/L) account instead of being derived from the document or transaction. This typically occurs in the context of financial postings where the system expects a VAT code to be determined based on the transaction details, but it instead defaults to the VAT code associated with the G/L account.
  
  Cause:
  
  G/L Account Configuration: The G/L account may not have a default VAT code assigned, or the configuration may not be set up correctly to derive the VAT code from the transaction.
  Document Type Settings: The document type used for the transaction may not be configured to allow for VAT code determination.
  Transaction Data: The transaction data may be incomplete or incorrect, leading the system to default to the G/L account's VAT code.
  Customizations: Any custom logic or user exits that affect VAT determination may not be functioning
