• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DEFTAX_MX073 - Date &1 is used as tax reporting date; Customizing settings ignored ?

  The SAP error message DEFTAX_MX073 indicates that there is an issue with the tax reporting date being used in a transaction. This error typically arises in the context of Mexican tax reporting, particularly when the system is trying to determine the applicable tax settings based on the date provided.
