    2. Incorrect PPF Profile: The PPF profile may not be correctly set up to include the necessary partner information.
    3. Document Type Issues: The document type associated with the action may not have the required partner settings.
    4. Authorization Issues: There may be authorization issues preventing the system from accessing the partner information.
