  The SAP error message 8B507: No entries in tax type table typically occurs when the system is unable to find the necessary tax type entries in the tax configuration tables. This can happen during various processes, such as posting invoices or creating financial documents, where tax calculations are required.

  Missing Tax Type Configuration: The tax type you are trying to use is not defined in the system. This could be due to incorrect configuration or missing entries in the tax type table.
