• Message class: F5 - Document Editing

• Message number: 667

• Message text: Tax adjustment not permissible due to different tax procedures

What causes this issue?

You want to post a payment settlement and clear in different company
codes &V1& and &V2& at the same time. The company codes, however, have
different tax procedures (&V3& and &V4&). A tax adjustment is therefore
not allowed for the cash discount items.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Change the cash discount accounts so that they are not relevant to tax.
This means, however, that no backdated tax calculation will be carried
out.
Alternatively, break down the posting into several postings. Distribute
the payment amount among the accompanying company codes and then clear
per company code.
