  The SAP error message 8B457 indicates that there is a configuration issue related to the tax model and tax group in the system. Specifically, it means that for the specified model and tax group, no record type has been defined in the system. This can occur in various contexts, such as during the posting of financial documents or when generating tax reports.
  Cause:
  
  
  Missing Configuration: The primary cause of this error is that the necessary configuration for the tax model and tax group has not been set up in the system. This could be due to:
  
  A new tax model or tax group being introduced without the corresponding record type being defined.
  Changes in tax regulations that require updates to the existing configuration.
  Incorrect or incomplete setup during the initial configuration of the tax system.
  
  
  
  Data Entry Errors: Sometimes, the error can also arise from incorrect data entry, where the model or tax group specified does not match any existing records in the configuration.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Go to the SAP Customizing Implementation Guide (IMG) and navigate to the relevant section for tax configuration.
  Verify that the record type is defined for the specified model and tax group. This can typically be found under:
  
  Financial Accounting (FI) > Financial Accounting Global Settings > Tax on Sales/Purchases > Basic Settings > Define Tax Models.
  
  
  Ensure that the record type is correctly assigned to the tax model and tax group in question.
  
  
  
  Define Missing Record Types:
  
  If the record type is missing, you will need to create it. This involves defining the record type in the system and linking it to the appropriate tax model and tax group.
  
  
  
  Review Data Entry:
  
  Check the data entry for the transaction that triggered the error. Ensure that the model and tax group are correctly specified and correspond to the defined configurations.
