    Hi Ruben,

    You have to specify the hierarchy per legal entity in: Module Tax > Setup > Foreign trade > Foreign trade parameters. Once that is setup, you got rid of this error.

    Wow Thanks Andre.

    I would love to see the Documentation on this. i have read the doc multiple times. No where does it mention to select the hierarchy in the parameters of Tax Module.

    Pretty frustrating, but i guess thats why we got the community.

    regards :)
