Derivation error with Tax accounts when making a payment

[mauro_blanc3]

We recently changed the configuration for the dummy commitment item we have for all tax accounts from 40/3 to 30/3/Statistical in order to make RFFMS200 program to work properly

When we post an invoice everything is working as expected, but when we try to make a payment the system is requesting a Fund Center for the tax account.

We went through FMDERIVE but we couldn't find where the error is or what we need to add in this transaction in order no to have this error.

Any help in solving this issue will be appreciated.

This is our OFUP setting:

We are using ECC 6.04 and the enhanced version of RFFMS200 for processing the payments.

Thanks in advance.

Regards, Mauro.

Hi,

As far as I understand, you don't even reach the step of FMF0, but experience a trouble in posting a payment. What is your FI posting for the invoice and what is it for the payment?

Anyway, if you set a trace in FMDERIVE, then during posting of the transaction you will see exactly what is lacking in derivation rules.

Hi Eli.

When we set a trace in FMDERIVE we don't see anything wrong. When the system reach item 0003 and try to post the withholding tax amount in the proper account, no funds center is derived (and this is correct for tax accounts).

However if we change the setting of commitment item financial transaction from 30 to 40, we are able to post the payment.

The reason that is is not a solution is because with financial transaction 40 in tax commitment items, RFFMS200 will not work.

Hi,

Every commitment item with FI transaction 30, has to be assigned to fund centre. If fund centre does not play any role for this account, you can simply define a default one in FMCIA transaction for this commitment item.
