Error FF819 during Cross-company code postings with taxes and different countries

[MarioFranco]

Hello!

We have the problem when we need to make an intercompany invoice between two companies with different location, in our case, Spain and Ireland.

The system detects that a tax code doesn't exist in one company. With this, an internal system control is activated and an error message appears (FF819), which we can't change to be a warning and that the flow can continue its course.

Thus, what we have to do is the process manually.

Some time ago we put the following note 438836/2022 but we didn't get a great result.

Do you know if there is any new way to approach this issue right now?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Regards,

Carmen.

Hello mfranco.

How are you? I have included the Tag "SAP S/4HANA Cloud" and excluded the Tag "SAP S/4HANA Cloud for Finance" for this question, as Intercompany Postings are Objects related to Finance Line of Business.

Hi pguerrerosa

pguerrerosaPlease see OSS 2990493 - Error FF819 during Cross-company code postings with taxes and different countries

Notes - SAP ONE Support Launchpad

Unfortunately the only solution is to post invoices separately as you do.

Cause

The taxes are always posted in the source company code for cross-company code transactions and stored in the tax information (BSET) of the source company. However, it is not defined how the taxes should be processed subsequently if the countries of the company codes involved are different. In addition, a tax reporting group can no longer be assumed because taxes for company codes of different countries are involved.

Resolution

Such postings are not supported and the error message is correct. For postings using SAP Cloud apps, error message FF819 is always issued as an error.

The workaround without cross-company-postings is to post the invoices separate in the different company codes.

In this case you need to write outgoing invoices from the leading company code to the other company codes that are involved.
