• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 68005 - Outpayment amount will be completely withheld ?

  The SAP error message "68005 Outpayment amount will be completely withheld" typically occurs in the context of financial transactions, particularly when dealing with outgoing payments or vendor payments. This error indicates that the system has determined that the entire payment amount is subject to withholding, which means that the payment cannot be processed as intended.
  Cause:
  
  Withholding Tax Configuration: The vendor or the payment document may be configured to apply withholding tax, and the system has calculated that the entire payment amount is subject to this withholding.
  Payment Block: There may be a payment block set on the vendor or the specific invoice that prevents the payment from being processed.
  Tax Code Issues: The tax code assigned to the transaction may indicate that the entire amount is subject to withholding.
  Payment Terms: The payment terms associated with the vendor or invoice may dictate that the payment is to be withheld.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Vendor Configuration: Check the vendor master data to ensure that the withholding tax settings are correct. If the vendor should not have withholding tax applied, you may need to adjust the settings.
  Check Payment Document: Review the payment document for any payment blocks or issues that may prevent processing. Remove any unnecessary blocks if applicable.
  Adjust Tax Code: If the tax code is incorrectly set, you may need to change it to one that does not apply withholding tax to the entire amount.
  Consult with Finance Team: If you are unsure about the withholding tax implications, consult with your finance or tax team to ensure compliance with local regulations.
  Manual Adjustment: If necessary, you may need to manually adjust the payment amount or create a new payment document that reflects the correct withholding tax treatment.
  
  Related Information:

  User Exits and BAdIs: In some cases, custom logic may be implemented through user exits or BAdIs that could affect payment processing. Check if any customizations are in place that might be causing this issue.
