Summary :
For certain non-European countries like Brazil and Australia, the 'VAT reg.no.' (STCEG) field serves as a placeholder for local tax number requirements and includes specific number validation routines. Users may require deactivation of these checks to repurpose the STCEG field for other uses. The solution provides manual source code corrections for the function module 'EU_TAX_NUMBER_CHECK', influenced by previous notes 208015 and/or 201753 implementation. Review of customizing settings is necessary to deactivate these settings in the respective countries by modifying the checking rule in T005-PRUIN effectively.
