• Message class: WB2B_EXPENSE - Global Trade Expenses

• Message number: 087

• Message text: Tax code cannot be determined for settlement document type &1

&CAUSE&,,
In the current configuration this settlement document type for a
supplier billing document (SBD) has been assigned a pricing procedure
that does <ZH>not </>include a condition type for the automatic
determination of tax codes. Tax codes are mandatory for creating an SBD
from an expense condition. In single accrual processing and collective
accrual processing, the system takes into account planned conditions
from the Trading Contract level.
&HINWEIS&
Tax codes cannot be maintained on the planned condition level.

System Response

As a tax code is mandatory for creating an SBD, the system does not
include conditions belonging to the mentioned SBD type for accrual
processing.

How to fix this error?

Assuming that you have the required authorization, you can use one of
the following solutions:
Create a new pricing procedure comprising condition types that
automatically determine the tax code. This means that only one tax
condition is included in the pricing procedure. For more information,

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

Check that the assigned pricing procedure comprises a condition type for
the automatic determination of tax codes. To view condition types
assigned to the pricing procedure, choose:
<DS:SIMG.W_WB2B_0G38>Define Calculation Schema</> (for Purchasing)
<DS:SIMG.W_WB2B_0G41>Define Calculation Schema</> (for Sales)
and check the <ZK>Control Data</>.
To check the properties of the assigned condition types, choose
<DS:SIMG.W_WB2B_0G37>Define Conditon Types</> (Purchasing)
<DS:SIMG.W_WB2B_0G40>Define Conditon Types</> (Sales)
Adjust entries as required. The condition class must be <ZK>D</> (Taxes)
for the condition types.
Implement the method <ZK>change_before_document_create </>from the BAdI
WB2_ACCRUAL_EXPENSE_ENHANCE (available in the link below). The tax code
can be assigned to item level data in this method. For more information,
see
<DS:SIMG.WB2_ACC_EXP_ENHANCE>BAdI: Enhancements to Accrual Processing
in Expense Workbench</>
&HINWEIS&
If you use this implementation you can also overwrite the tax code that
is determined automatically by the pricing procedure.
