This error indicates that a required partner function has not been specified for a given partner in the system.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Partner Function: The partner function (e.g., sold-to party, ship-to party, payer, etc.) is not assigned to the specified partner in the partner determination procedure.
    2. Incorrect Partner Configuration: The partner determination procedure may not be correctly configured to include the necessary partner functions for the transaction.
    3. Data Entry Error: There may be a mistake in the data entry where the partner was not correctly assigned or selected.

    Solution:

    1. Check Partner Assignment:

      • Check the partner assignment section to ensure that the required partner functions are filled in correctly.
    2. Maintain Partner Functions:
