What causes this issue?

You have switched the bank details from <(>&<)>2 to <(>&<)>1. A BIC has
not been assigned to the target bank. This means that the SEPA mandate
cannot be moved from bank details <(>&<)>2 to bank details <(>&<)>1.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Enter a BIC for the bank. The system then proposes a new SEPA mandate
for the target bank details. If you save the business partner without
entering a BIC for bank details <(>&<)>1, the link to the SEPA mandate
for the source bank details is lost when you switch the bank details.
