  The SAP error message CVI_SYNCH_CONTROL100 indicates that a payment card (credit card or debit card) is already associated with a different business partner in the system. This typically occurs during the synchronization process between the Customer/Vendor Integration (CVI) and the Business Partner (BP) data.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Payment Card: The payment card you are trying to assign to a business partner is already linked to another business partner in the system.

  Incorrect Business Partner Assignment: The payment card may have been incorrectly assigned to multiple business partners.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Existing Assignments:
  
  Use transaction code BP to check the business partners and their associated payment cards.
  Identify which business partner is currently using the payment card in question.
  
  
  
  Reassign or Remove Payment Card:
  
  If the payment card is no longer needed for the original business partner, you can remove it from that partner and then assign it to the new business partner.

  Data Cleanup:
  
  If this issue arises from data migration, perform a cleanup of the business partner and payment card data to ensure there are no duplicates.
  Ensure that each payment card is uniquely assigned to a single business partner.
