  The SAP error message FIGLTR_FRX_MESSAGES021 indicates that there is a missing target tax code for a specified procedure and source tax code in the context of tax determination or tax reporting. This error typically arises in the Financial Accounting (FI) module, particularly when dealing with tax calculations or reporting in the context of foreign exchange (FX) transactions.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Configuration: The target tax code that should correspond to the specified source tax code is not configured in the system. This can happen if the tax codes have not been properly set up in the tax configuration settings.
  Incorrect Tax Procedure: The tax procedure being used may not have the necessary mappings for the source tax code to a target tax code.
  Data Entry Errors: There may be errors in the data entry where the source tax code is incorrectly specified or does not exist in the system.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Tax Code Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code OBYZ (or SPRO for configuration) to check the tax code settings.
  Ensure that the target tax code is defined for the specified source tax code in the relevant tax procedure.
  
  
  
  Review Tax Procedure:

  Ensure that the tax procedure includes the necessary mappings for the source tax code to the target tax code.
  
  
  
  Maintain Tax Codes:
  
  If the target tax code is missing, you may need to create it using transaction code FTXP (for creating tax codes).
  Ensure that the tax codes are properly assigned to the relevant company codes and are active.
  
  
  
  Check for Data Entry Errors:
  
  Review the transaction or document that triggered the error to ensure that the correct source tax code is being used.
