system therefore cannot access the contract account master data.
&REASON&
You have created a SD order for a business partner (role: payer) whose
contract account receivable and payable is <LS>not activated</> in

receivable and payable.
The billing/delivery of the order is triggered.

If documents have already been created then the business partner cannot
be subsequently activated. This would cause inconsistencies and is
therefore not supported. You must deactivate the affected accounts
group in Customizing.
You have created a delivery without a reference to an order (such as
delivery type <LS>delivery withour reference</>). The contract account
receivable and payable of the specified ship-to party is activated in
Customizing (account group: customer).

billed if they have a reference to an order.
