• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CA_TTE580 - Document tax code values contain both empty and filled tax code values ?

  The SAP error message CA_TTE580 indicates that there is an inconsistency in the tax code values within a document. Specifically, it means that the document contains both empty (null) tax code values and filled (non-null) tax code values. This situation can lead to confusion in tax calculations and reporting, as SAP expects a uniform approach to tax codes within a single document.
  Cause:
  
  Mixed Tax Code Entries: The document may have line items where some have tax codes assigned while others do not. This can happen due to manual entry errors or issues during data migration.

  Assigning a tax code to the empty line items if applicable.
  Removing tax codes from line items that should not have them.
  
  
  Check Configuration: Review the tax code configuration in the system to ensure that it is set up correctly and that there are no conflicting settings that could lead to this issue.
