Tax Definition 1 [Message 173-63]

Former Member

Hi,

Few days back we encountered an issue with posting the documents. Got the error message as Tax difinition1 [Message 173-63]. We were not able to post any of the documents. We tried upgrading the patch level from 31 to 40. That doesn't work then we restore the back up. The product was working fine for 2 days.

Now today we are encountering an issue with posting the A/R Invoice. The document total is correct tax break up is correct but we are not able to add the invoice. We are able to add all the other documents like SO, GRPO, Delivery, Excise Invoice, but at the time of adding the A/R Invoice we are encountering the error message as Tax Definition 1 [Message 173-63].

Please forward your suggestions regarding this issue.

Thanks and Regards

murugappan,

Pl check whether you redefined the tax rate and its period

in tax code,

You have created sales order,deliveries with old tax codes

after that you should have done changes in tax rates of

tax codes and when you are posting ar invoice based on

sales order/delivery,it will show tax definition error.

Hi,

Please check the tax type attributes. A/R tax account might be missing.

murugappan,

Following reasons may be cause for error -Tax definition.

1.There must me changes in tax rates in tax codes

while after creation of sales orders,delivery,grpo.

2.Also check ap/ar g/l accounts were defined in tax codes.

3.Check tax formula correctly defined.

Every thing is defined perfectly. A/P & A/R accounts are defined properly. Ther is no change in tax code.

Last we were not able to post any of the documents because of the tax issue. So we upgraded the patch even that didn't work so we restored the database. Again today we are facing the issue while posting the A/R invoice.

Please help mke out with this issue....

Thanks and Regards

Since AP Invoice is posted correctly there is no problem with Tax Code, Tax Formula or Date range.

Problem might be with the AR Ledgers. Check if the AR GL is active(Not in Hold).

Otherwise Create New Tax Code, Make the current taxcode on hold and proceed.

Hi,

The Tax code is BED+CST@2%. Tax combo is Bed@14%, Ecess@2%, Hecess@1%, CST@2%.

Now we tried adding new A/R Invoice with the tax code with the combination of BED+CST@4%. The A/R Invoice added sucessfully. There was no error message. We are able to add the A/R Invoice with different tax code. There is no problem with that......

Thanks & Regards
