• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CRM_MKTPL_ENR027 - Target Group contains &1 or more BPs, use Add By TG (Background) ?

  The SAP error message CRM_MKTPL_ENR027 indicates that the target group you are trying to process contains one or more business partners (BPs) that need to be handled differently. Specifically, the message suggests that you should use the "Add By Target Group (Background)" option to manage the business partners in the target group.
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs in the context of marketing activities within SAP CRM when you attempt to add business partners to a marketing campaign or activity, but the system detects that the target group contains BPs that require special handling. This could be due to:
  
  Large Number of BPs: The target group may contain a large number of business partners, which can lead to performance issues if processed in the foreground.
  Specific Processing Requirements: Some business partners may have specific attributes or statuses that require them to be processed in the background.
  System Configuration: The system may be configured to enforce background processing for certain types of target groups or business partners.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should follow these steps:
  
  
  Use Background Processing:
  
  Instead of trying to add the business partners in the foreground, use the "Add By Target Group (Background)" option. This option allows the system to process the business partners in the background, which is more efficient for large datasets.
  
  
  
  Check Target Group Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration of the target group to ensure that it is set up correctly and that there are no restrictions or issues with the business partners included.
  
  
  
  Monitor Background Jobs:
  
  After initiating the background processing, monitor the job status in transaction SM37 to ensure that it completes successfully and to check for any errors that may arise during processing.
  
  
  
  Review Business Partner Data:
  
  Check the business partners included in the target group for any inconsistencies or issues that may need to be addressed.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for additional guidance on handling target groups and business partners in marketing activities.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as CRMD_ORDER, CRMD_ORDERADM_H, and SM37 for monitoring background jobs.
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to CRM marketing and target group processing that may provide additional insights or fixes.
  Performance Considerations: Understand the performance implications of processing large target groups and consider optimizing your target group selection criteria if necessary.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and successfully process the target group in SAP CRM.
