Getting Communication error with the external tax system(VERTEX_MS0018)

Hi All,
I am a new SAP HCM self learner. I am practicing it on company's sandbox system. When I am trying to create a company and saving the address, it is returning Communication error with the external tax system(VERTEX_MS0018). I have already tried to solve is issue by going thru previous related to same issue like
Communication error with the external tax system (VERTEX_MS0018) ...Urgent
but coudn't solve the issue.
Please help. Is this issue coming as I am using a training environment? any alternate approach?

Hi Ravi,
To disable the connection to Vertex:
Goto tcode SPRO > Cross Application Components > Transaction Tax Engine >
Technical Settings> Define External Tax System
Here an RFC would be defined. Remove it and try again.
Also in SPRO > Cross Application Components > Tax Determination based on Jurisdiction Codes > External Tax Jurisdiction > Activate External Tax Jurisdiction.
Remove the entry 'V' here.

Communication error with the external tax system(vertex_ms0018)

Hi All
I have installed ECC6 IDES S/W on my PC. I have activated SAP Insurance module (FS-CD). When I try to create business partner using FPP1 with US address, It is throwing error as follows:
"communication error with the external tax system(vertex_ms0018)"
I dont want to use any external Tax system like Vertex etc. because I am not calculating any taxes.
I gave correct US address with valid ZIP etc. but no use.
Please help me if any one of you has idea. How to overcome this error. How to deactivate connection to external tax system.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Giri

Hi Giri,
I've notice that you took the 'V' from the configuration but you left the RFC destination.
Clearly the RFC destination is not working thus the reason you get the error (in your case, your server can't determine a valid IP address for the host iwdf8334.wdf.sap.corp).
To sort out the problem you got I can think of at least two ways:
1. Get the RFC connection working (get the correct setup for it) using transaction SM59
2. Or if you don't really need the external tax calculations, remove the RFC configuration from TAXUJ under Assign RFC Destination to Country on the Cross-Application SPRO entry.
3. You can always add TAXUS to transaction OBBG if you require it (as it comes out of the box).
This should fix the problem you are having but I'm assuming you don't need the external tax calculations.
If you do, just fix the connection using SM59 (you may want to ask for help from your Basis team if you don't know how to do it).
Cheers

Communication error with the LOCAL_EXEC Function BAPI_PTMGREXTATTABS_CHECK

Hello,
We use timesheet (CATS) in a separate SAP system from the SAP system in which HR resides.
I found out how the loosely coupled scenario with CATS works with a SAP HR system. We transfer the workschedule and absence data with report RPTIMEOVERVIEW_REPLICATE to the SAP system in which CATS is used. This data is then available in the PTIMEOV1 table to perform time checks in CATS. The distribution model for ALE takes care of the fact that the data is posted into table PTIMEOV1. With BD97 I set up that the BAPI: PTMGREXTATTABS.CHECK has RFCdestination for synchronous calls = LOCAL_EXEC.
When I want to record on an attendance code without clock times then the above works fine. The SAP system in which CATS resides looks into table PTIMEOV1. So far so good.
However, when I want to record hours WITH clock times then I cannot save the data. The error message HRTIM00CATS667 shows up:
"Communication error with the LOCAL_EXEC Function BAPI_PTMGREXTATTABS_CHECK is no t available system"
Diagnosis
An error has occured during communication with the HR System. The HR data in the time sheet cannot be validated.
From the error message description it seems that it wants to check the SAP HR system instead of looking for the check in the SAP system in which CATS resides.....
When I change the value from LOCAL_EXEC to the system in which HR resides then the error disappears, but then it really checks into the SAP HR system (synchronous check with that SAP HR system) and that is not what the customer wants. The check should be local on the PTIMEOV1 table (in case the SAP HR system is down).
I did not find any OSS notes on the topic....or other info on SDN.
Can anyone help me out concerning this starnge error message, at least for me?
Thanks very much in advance,
Kind regards,
Mirko

Communication Error with PIC µC through RS232.

Hello Friends.
I am getting continuous communication error with PIC µC reading through RS 232. Our µC programmed by external company and according to Communication protocol. µC sends 11 data packets in 43 ms and then delay on 50 sec. Actually Original labview code is developed in LabView 7.0 and now I am trying to update new installer to LabVIEW 9.0. I am attaching my LabView communication VI and capture data. If you see in the ComSerial.Vi, you can find when 8000! case is detected only that time 3 value sent to µc. In µc there is a Protocol, that when it receive 3 wrong packet (or damage packet) out of 10 then it send Error code 07 means communication error. Can you please take a look in to this ComSerial.vi and suggest me some Solution. I already spend more then 10 days to just figure it out.

I would suggest to start with the examples for the serial communication with LabVIEW and then built on them further. This way you will be sure about your code and then also for your communication and afterwards you can implement the further logic. Try those vis and see if your recieving the right data or not if not may be there is problem on hardware side!!

Communication error with Epson Stylus C63 with Airport Express

I have a brandnew iMac running 10.5.2. Set up my Airport Express and got the wifi to work in the house. Now I am dealing with remote printing. Printer is plugged into the port on the Airport Express, I see it in the Printer tab of Aiport Utility, I see it in the printer dialogue... but whenever I print I get "communication error with printer". I have unplugged the Airport Express, restarted computers, to no avail.
What am I missing?? Thanks in advance for any tips.
-Joanna

I solved this problem! After lots of searching I ended up at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5692363 Printer setup utility in Leopard which gave the tip to reset the printing system... I did, and then somehow the Epson printer showed up as a Bonjour printer (which I had tried to do in the Airport utility but it would not let me because the name was too short or something strange like that). PageSender Fax showed up also and I just printed a document remotely...
Hope this helps someone else.

Communication Error with Base Station

I've been trying to connect my stereo system to the Power Mac using Airport Express. I had the Airport working fine as an extender but have moved and no longer need the extender function. In trying to convert it to a client on the network for streaming music to the stereo, it tells me there is a communication error with my Airport Extreme Base Station. Both the network and ITunes see the new client but when I try to connect from ITunes, I get the beach ball. When I try to configure from Airport Setup is when I get the communication error. I've done a factory reset but still get the same problem. Any advice? Thanks.

it finally worked after 20 tries--thanks anyway

Error in external tax system: Line: 0 - 0440 TxJCdSTIO The fleximap module

Hi,
We have a third-party purchase order where in PO is created in our US company code but the delivery is to a plant belonging to a BRazil company code. (Delivery address is in Brazil).
Problem is when the user is trying to change the tax code on the invoice tab for a line item he gets the below error.
Error in external tax system: Line: 0 - 0440 TxJCdSTIO The fleximap module
Message no. FS861
We are using VErtex for our US/Canada taxes.
Can anyone let me know why we are getting the error.
Raj.

Hi
As far as US company code is concerned, the moment the PO is initiated, the integration links would trigger after subsequent process the SO, Billing, Delivery in Brazilian company code.
The tax codes in both the company codes need to be similar. The system allows to change the tax code but does not process the transaction because of lack of similarity.
I am sure the inteface links are fine, but recheck the settings in Brazilian cc
Interesting issue, please do let me know how you would resolve
