• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 1FA129 - Payment orders with more than one recipient not allowed for this account ?

  The SAP error message 1FA129 indicates that a payment order is being attempted with multiple recipients, which is not allowed for the specified account. This error typically arises in the context of payment processing within SAP, particularly when dealing with bank transfers or payment runs.
  Cause:
  The error occurs due to the following reasons:
  
  Account Configuration: The bank account in question is configured to only allow single recipient payments. This is common for certain types of accounts, such as those used for specific payment methods or those that have restrictions imposed by the bank.
  Payment Method: The payment method being used may not support multiple recipients. For example, certain payment methods may only allow for single payments.
  Payment Run Settings: The settings in the payment run may be configured incorrectly, leading to an attempt to process multiple payments in a single transaction.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check Account Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration of the bank account in SAP. Ensure that it is set up to allow multiple recipients if that is required for your payment processing.
  If the account is intended for single payments, ensure that your payment runs are structured accordingly.
  
  
  
  Review Payment Method:
  
  Check the payment method being used for the transaction. Ensure that it supports multiple recipients if that is necessary for your payment processing.
  If the payment method does not support multiple recipients, consider using a different method that does.
  
  
  
  Adjust Payment Run Settings:
  
  Review the settings in the payment run to ensure that it is not attempting to process multiple payments in a single transaction.
  If necessary, split the payment run into separate runs for each recipient.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's SAP support team for specific guidelines on configuring payment accounts and methods.
  
  
  
  Contact Bank:
  
  If the account is configured correctly in SAP but still results in the error, contact your bank to verify if there are any restrictions on the account that may be causing this issue.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance on payment processing configurations.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as F110 (Automatic Payment Transactions) to manage payment runs effectively.
  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that the user executing the payment run has the necessary authorizations to perform the actions required.
