• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FTR_GUI209 - Partner &1 is used in securities as issuer ?

  The SAP error message FTR_GUI209 indicates that a specific partner (in this case, represented by &1) is being used as an issuer in the securities management module, which is causing a conflict or issue in the transaction you are trying to perform. This error typically arises in the context of financial transactions involving securities, such as bonds or stocks, where the issuer's details are critical for processing.
  Cause:
  
  Partner Usage: The partner (e.g., a company or individual) you are trying to use in a transaction is already designated as an issuer for a security. This means that the system recognizes this partner as having a specific role that cannot be changed or duplicated in the current context.

  Solution:
  
  Check Partner Role: Verify the role of the partner in the system. You can do this by navigating to the relevant master data for the partner and checking if they are indeed set up as an issuer for any securities.
  Change Partner: If the partner is incorrectly assigned or if you need to use a different partner for the transaction, consider selecting a different partner that is not currently assigned as an issuer.
  Review Securities Configuration: If you believe the partner should not be an issuer, review the securities configuration and the partner's role assignments. You may need to adjust the partner's role or remove them from the issuer list if appropriate.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's internal guidelines for managing partners and securities to ensure compliance with best practices.
