  The primary cause of this error is that the transaction type you are trying to use does not have the required application area assignments defined in the system. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Configuration: The necessary configuration for the transaction type has not been set up in the Customizing settings.
  Incorrect Transaction Type: The transaction type being used may not be valid or may not be intended for the operation you are trying to perform.
  Transport Issues: If the configuration was recently transported from another system, it may not have been properly imported or activated.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the CRM_ORDER_CUST008 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Customizing Settings:

  Maintain Application Area Assignments:

  Check Transaction Type:
