  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WTADDI424 - Enter a procedure for additionals ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WTADDI424 - Enter a procedure for additionals


    Cause:

    This error occurs in SAP when you are trying to process or post a withholding tax (WHT) document or transaction, and the system requires you to specify a procedure for additionals (additional withholding tax procedures), but none has been entered.

    In SAP, withholding tax procedures define how withholding tax is calculated and posted. Sometimes, additional withholding tax procedures are configured for special cases (e.g., additional tax on top of the basic withholding tax). If the system expects an additional procedure but it is missing or not entered, this error is triggered.


    When does it occur?

    • During withholding tax document posting (e.g., in FI or MM).
    • When additional withholding tax procedures are configured but not maintained or entered in the transaction.
    • When the system expects an additional procedure due to configuration or master data settings but the user has not provided it.

    Solution:

    1. Check Withholding Tax Configuration:

      • Go to transaction SPRO ? Financial Accounting ? Withholding Tax ? Extended Withholding Tax ? Define Withholding Tax Procedures.
      • Verify if additional withholding tax procedures are defined and linked properly.
      • Check if the procedure requires additional procedures to be entered.
    2. Maintain Additional Procedures in the Document:

      • When entering the withholding tax details in the document (e.g., vendor invoice, payment), ensure that the additional withholding tax procedure is entered where required.
      • In the withholding tax tab or screen, enter the missing procedure for additionals.
    3. Check Vendor/Customer Master Data:

      • Verify if the vendor or customer master data has withholding tax information that requires additional procedures.
      • Adjust or update the master data if necessary.
    4. Review Withholding Tax Types and Codes:

      • Check if the withholding tax codes used in the transaction are linked to additional procedures.
      • Adjust the tax codes or procedures if they are incorrectly assigned.
    5. Consult SAP Notes:

      • Sometimes, specific SAP Notes address issues related to withholding tax procedures and error messages.
      • Search the SAP Support Portal for notes related to WTADDI424.
