Challenges in SAP Business one. 

The taxes are levied on the invoice which is accounted as liability at the time of invoicing. However, the actual liability arises only when we receive the payment. We need to build a report on the incoming payment to calculate the actual liability and manually post the journal entries.

SAP India is working on the solution, which will be released in the next patch level which is expected in November 2020.
