• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message F2180 - Account group &1 has been reserved for consumers ?

  The SAP error message F2180, which states "Account group &1 has been reserved for consumers," typically occurs when you are trying to create or modify a customer or vendor account in SAP, and the account group you are using is restricted to consumer accounts only. This means that the account group is not intended for the type of account you are trying to create or modify (e.g., a business account).
  
  Cause:
  
  Account Group Restrictions: The account group you are trying to use is configured to only allow consumer accounts. This is often set up in the configuration of the SAP system to differentiate between consumer and business accounts.
  Incorrect Account Type: You may be attempting to create a business account using an account group that is designated for consumers.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Account Group Configuration:
  
  Go to the SAP configuration (transaction code SPRO).
