  Check Document Entries: Review the document in question to ensure that the tax calculation date is only specified in one place—either at the header level or at the line item level, but not both.
  Adjust Configuration: If this is a recurring issue, it may be necessary to review the configuration settings related to tax calculation in the SAP system. This may involve consulting with a functional consultant or SAP support to ensure that the settings align with business processes.
  User Training: Provide training to users on how to correctly enter tax calculation dates to avoid this error in the future.
