BPI-I, Exercise 177

[Former Member]

I have checked numerius exercises to ID this issue, but need some help: Thank you in advance.

Exercise 177, when trying to post received this error message.

No taxes on sales/purch.are allowed for account 760146 C146, XI is not allowed

There are a few possibilities here, but the account referenced in the error message is the Purchase Price Difference account. This account would only come into play if the amount of the invoice that is being entered is different from the amount of the purchase order.

I'd recommend going back and reviewing the purchase order total for the PO created previously. (Transaction ME23N will let you do this.) Check that total against what was entered as the amount in exercise 177. If those numbers match up exactly, then this error will be resolved.

I've found that often when executing this exercise students will enter an errant number or will omit entering the amount as some of the PO data is pulled in automatically.
