ME21N,Future Date PO and Tx.Code Error FF718 Tax Code ..does not exist...

Question

Hi
We'r creating a PO with me21n and geting the message FF718 - Tax code does not exists for the jurisdiction code"
The problem is that the PO is a future dated, i.e. document date, delivery date and also a tax code eff. date s in the future (e.g. the current system date is Mar 24, the PO and the Tax Code dates are May 01, 2010.
We assume the system should allow entering POs which are using the Tax Code effective in the future under condition that the document date is after the effective date of the Tax Code.
abap debugging revealed a possible problem in the MM06EF0E_EKPO_TXJCD, MM06EF0E_EKPO-MWSKZ in the function call (, CALL Function "CALCULATE_TAX_FROM_GROSSAMOUNT" in our case).
Neither the delivery not PO dates are not passed to this function (the parameter I_PRSDT). If the date is not passed the function is using sy-datlo (system date) as the date to check the Tax and Tax Jurisdition codes.
The questions:
1) Is my assumption that using future dated tax code is not programmed in the ME21N ?
2) if I am right whether this problem was addressed by sap, i.e. is there a note to fix this and to allow using future dated tax codes.
tnx,
Victor
