• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CVI_FS_CHECK_CUST006 - Although direction "BP -> vendor" activated, no numbers are assigned ?

  The SAP error message CVI_FS_CHECK_CUST006 indicates that there is an issue with the assignment of business partner (BP) numbers to vendor accounts in the system. This error typically arises when the system is configured to allow the creation of vendors from business partners, but there are no vendor numbers assigned to the relevant business partner.
  Cause:
  
  Business Partner Configuration: The business partner may not be properly configured as a vendor. This can happen if the necessary roles (e.g., vendor role) are not assigned to the business partner.
  Missing Vendor Number: The business partner exists, but it does not have a corresponding vendor number assigned in the system.
  Integration Issues: There may be issues with the integration settings between the Business Partner and Vendor master data.
  Data Migration Issues: If data was migrated from an older system, there may be inconsistencies or missing data in the new system.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Business Partner Roles:
  
  Go to the Business Partner transaction (BP) and check if the relevant vendor role (e.g., FLCU00 for customers, FLVN00 for vendors) is assigned to the business partner.
  If not, assign the appropriate vendor role to the business partner.
  
  
  
  Assign Vendor Number:
  
  If the business partner is correctly configured, ensure that a vendor number is assigned. This can be done in the vendor master data transaction (XK01 or FK01) or through the Business Partner transaction.
  You can also use transaction BP to create a new vendor or to edit the existing one and ensure that the vendor number is generated.
  
  
  
  Check Integration Settings:
  
  Verify the settings in the Customizing for the Business Partner and Vendor integration. Ensure that the settings for the assignment of business partners to vendors are correctly configured.
  Check the transaction SPRO under Cross-Application Components > Master Data Synchronization > Business Partner > Define Business Partner Roles.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency Check:
  
  Run consistency checks to ensure that there are no inconsistencies in the master data. You can use transaction BP to check for inconsistencies.
  
  
  
  Review Migration Process:
  
  If the issue arose after a data migration, review the migration process to ensure that all necessary data was transferred correctly, including the assignment of vendor numbers.
