How To Fix TAX_EXEMPT412 - None of the selected tax exemption certificates was completed

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: TAX_EXEMPT - Message class for tax exempt certificate

• Message number: 412

• Message text: None of the selected tax exemption certificates was completed

What causes this issue?

During the execution of the program tax exemption certificates have been
determined based on the selection criteria. Nevertheless none of those
certificates could be completed since the required checks have not been
passed. The report 'CRM_TAXEXM_SET_COMPLETED Set Status of Tax Exemption
Certificates To Completed' runs the following checks before the status
is set to completed:
is the validity end date already in the past (earlier than today's date)
or
is it a tax exemption certificate with a maximum amount equal to the
accumulated amount or
is it a single use tax exemption certificate, which was already used
(any accumulated exempt amount)?
The standard checks can be enhanced or overruled by an implementation of
the BADI CRM_TAX_EXEMPT_CHECK. Please check the interface documentation
for further information.

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

System Response

The status of the tax exemption certificates remains unchanged.
