F-48 and Withholding Tax

Question

Hello,
I'm trying to setup Withholding tax so that it post when an AP Down payment is created in F-48.
I had the Withholding tax to apply at time of Invoice, thinking that this might be the problem.  Now I've changed it so that it's applied at time of payment. 
This still did not fix the error.
In the 'Vendor: Add Items' screen, I enter the amount then it ask me to enter a Tax Code (this is another problem, a Tax code should not be required).  So I enter the tax code and click on the 'Calculate Tax' box.  Then I click enter and try to push on the 'Withholding Tax' push button.  I get a message asking 'Has the Tax code been entered correctly', and I say 'OK'.  The Withholding box never pops up for me to either enter or display the Withholding amount. 
Does anybody know why this is happening?
thank you for your help!

Hello brett,
TDS codes will prepare at the time of invoice or at the time of advance payment. Depend upon the activity system will pick up the TDS codes from vendor master.
If vendor is debit then at the advance payment TDS codes will come if Vendor is credit at the time of invoice TDS codes will come.
Both TDS codes ( at the time of payment & invoice) are not deduct at the same time.
Field status variant:
Go to FS00 and give the gl account and click on Create/bank/interest tab to see the field status group attached. double click on that one it will directly take to field status variant screen(obc4) see the status of withholding taxes under TAXES tab. if withholding taxes option is in suppress mode convert into optional.
if still the problem continues go to SE38 RFWT0010 give vendor code and all required details finally deselect test run button. (there is no any problem even you run morethan one time).
