• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 63039 - Input tax option should exist for tax rates <> 0 ?

  The SAP error message 63039, "Input tax option should exist for tax rates <> 0," typically occurs in the context of tax configuration in the SAP system, particularly when dealing with tax codes and their associated settings. This error indicates that there is a mismatch or misconfiguration related to input tax settings for a specific tax rate.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Input Tax Option: The error usually arises when a tax code is defined with a non-zero tax rate, but the system does not have a corresponding input tax option configured for that tax code.
  Incorrect Tax Code Configuration: The tax code may not be properly set up in the system, leading to the absence of necessary input tax settings.
  Tax Jurisdiction Issues: If the tax jurisdiction is not correctly defined or linked to the tax code, it may lead to this error.
  Changes in Tax Regulations: If there have been recent changes in tax regulations or rates, the existing configurations may not align with the new requirements.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Tax Code Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code OBYZ (or use the path: SPRO > Financial Accounting > Financial Accounting Global Settings > Tax on Sales/Purchases > Basic Settings > Check Tax Codes for Sales and Purchases).
  Verify that the tax code in question has the correct input tax option set up. Ensure that the tax code is configured to allow for input tax deductions.
  
  
  
  Define Input Tax Options:
  
  If the input tax option is missing, you may need to define it. This can be done in the same configuration area where you check the tax codes.
  Ensure that the input tax option is correctly assigned to the relevant tax codes.
  
  
  
  Review Tax Jurisdictions:
  
  Check if the tax jurisdiction is correctly set up and linked to the tax code. This can be done in the configuration settings for tax jurisdictions.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review any recent changes in tax regulations that may affect the configuration of tax codes and input tax options.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, perform a test transaction to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
