This error is often related to the SAP module for logistics or supply chain management, particularly in the context of shipping or delivery processes.

    Cause:

    1. Non-Existent Recipient: The recipient ID (represented by &1 in the error message) does not exist in the system. This could be due to a typo, or the recipient may not have been created in the system.
    2. Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the data, such as missing entries in the relevant master data tables.
    3. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or access the recipient data.

      • For customers, you can use transaction XD03 (Display Customer).
      • For vendors, you can use transaction XK03 (Display Vendor).
    3. Create Recipient: If the recipient does not exist, you may need to create it using the appropriate transaction (e.g., XD01 for creating a customer or XK01 for creating a vendor).
    4. Review Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the recipient data. This may involve checking roles and permissions in the user profile.
    5. Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings related to the module you are working with to ensure that everything is set up correctly.
