This error typically arises in the context of compliance checks, particularly in scenarios involving international sales where the recipient's country is crucial for regulatory and tax purposes.
  Cause:

  The sales document (like a sales order or delivery) does not have a recipient country defined in the relevant master data (such as customer master data).
  The country field in the sales document is either blank or incorrectly filled.
