• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /CCIS/TAX702 - Low bracket is greater than high bracket ?

  The SAP error message /CCIS/TAX702 Low bracket is greater than high bracket typically occurs in the context of tax calculation settings within the SAP system, particularly when configuring tax brackets for a specific tax type. This error indicates that there is a misconfiguration in the tax bracket settings where the lower limit (low bracket) of a tax range is set higher than the upper limit (high bracket), which is logically incorrect.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Configuration: The most common cause of this error is an incorrect entry in the tax bracket configuration. For example, if you have defined a tax bracket with a low limit of 100 and a high limit of 50, the system will throw this error.
  Data Migration Issues: If tax data has been migrated from another system or manually entered, there may be inconsistencies or errors in the data.
  Changes in Tax Regulations: Updates or changes in tax regulations may require adjustments in the tax bracket settings, and if not done correctly, this error can occur.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Tax Bracket Configuration:
  
  Navigate to the tax configuration settings in your SAP system.
  Check the defined tax brackets for the relevant tax type.
  Ensure that for each tax bracket, the low bracket value is less than or equal to the high bracket value.
  
  
  
  Correct the Values:
  
  If you find any brackets where the low value exceeds the high value, correct these values to ensure logical consistency.
  Save the changes and re-test the tax calculation.
  
  
  
  Data Validation:
  
  If the error occurred after a data migration, validate the data to ensure that all tax brackets are correctly defined.
  Use transaction codes like OB40 (for tax codes) or OBYZ (for tax rates) to review and adjust the settings.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help notes related to tax configuration for additional guidance on setting up tax brackets correctly.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary corrections, perform tests to ensure that the tax calculations are now functioning as expected without errors.
