VAT-NR Setup is Required in Posting Process Even When VAT is Not Being Used

Expenses BU definition for VAT options if Prorate Non_recoverable VAT is checked it needs Non VAT recoverable chartfield inheritance. Even if Non_recoverable VAT is unchecked it gives the message (SQL object FS_CFI_FOVR_USC01_EXVN not defined). So it seems either ways it needs Non VAT recoverable to be setup.


Error Message:
------------------
SQL object FS_CFI_FOVR_USC01_EXVN not defined

Steps:
--------
The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:

1. Create a new SETID 'TSTCF'
2. Set the new SETID as the chartfield inheritance group SETID for US001.
3. For US001, VAT is not enabled and Record Foreign VAT is not checked in business unit definition.
4. Create and submit an ER for KU0042.
5. Run Post liability for US001.

Actual Result:
--------------------
User is getting error message "SQL object FS_CFI_FOVR_TSTCF_EXVN not defined" while running Expense Processing and expense accounting entries are not created.
  
Expected Result:
--------------------
Ex VAT-NR setup is not required in posting process when customer are not using VAT.
