  Check Tax Condition Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code OBYZ (for tax condition types) or V/06 (for pricing condition types).

  Ensure that the tax classification is appropriate for the sales area and the relevant tax jurisdiction.
  
  
  
  Test the Configuration:
  
  After making the necessary changes, perform a test transaction to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that tax calculations are functioning as expected.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
