Diagnosis
As a result of changes you have made, you may have changed the quantityof relevant withholding tax types.
A withholding tax type is relevant if the following conditions apply:

• The withholding tax type is entered in the master record of the
business partner and indicated as subject to withholding tax (vendor)or authorized to deduct withholding tax (customer).

• The company code is defined as authorized to deduct withholding tax for
vendors or subject to withholding tax for customers for thiswithholding tax type.

• The posting date is in the validity period for the authorization
deduction (customer master record or withholding tax data for companycode).

System Response
If the quantity of relevant withholding tax types changes, open itemsposted before the change cannot be activated and therefore not cleared(inconsistencies between withholding tax information in the open itemsand information in the company code or master data).
In the document display, the system displays relevant comments aboutthe validity of the withholding tax information in the withholding taxdialog box; New withholding tax type if a relevant withholdingtax type was added after document entry, and Withholding tax typeno longer relevant if there are less relevant withholding tax typesafter the document entry.

Procedure
After you have changed the relevant withholding tax types, you have toadjust the open items for the current relevant withholding tax types.For new withholding tax types, new withholding tax information has tobe generated and for withholding tax types that are no longer relevant,the withholding tax code must be deleted in the existing withholdingtax information.
You can use report RFWT0010 to adjust the withholding tax informationto the relevant withholding tax types.
Start report RFWT0010 after changing the relevant withholding taxtypes.
