• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RERAOP052 - Customer &1 is not a one-time customer ?

  The SAP error message RERAOP052 indicates that the customer you are trying to process is not classified as a one-time customer. This typically occurs in scenarios where a transaction or operation expects a one-time customer (often used for ad-hoc sales or transactions without a permanent customer record) but the specified customer is a regular customer with a defined master record.
  Cause:
  
  Customer Classification: The customer in question is set up as a regular customer in the SAP system, which means it has a customer master record that is not designated as a one-time customer.
  Transaction Type: The transaction you are attempting to perform may require a one-time customer, such as certain sales order types or billing processes that are designed for non-regular customers.
  Configuration Settings: The system configuration may be set to only allow one-time customers for specific transactions.
  
  Solution:
  
  Use a One-Time Customer: If the transaction requires a one-time customer, you should create or select a one-time customer record. In SAP, one-time customers are typically identified by a specific customer number or by using a specific customer group.
  Change Customer Type: If appropriate, you can change the customer type in the customer master data to classify it as a one-time customer. This may involve modifying the customer record in the relevant transaction (e.g., using transaction code XD02 for customer master data).
  Review Transaction Requirements: Check the requirements of the transaction you are trying to execute. If it is not necessary to use a one-time customer, consider using a regular customer instead.
  Consult Configuration: If you believe the configuration settings are incorrect or need adjustment, consult with your SAP administrator or functional consultant to review the settings related to customer types and transaction processing.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Customer Master Data: Understanding how customer master data is structured in SAP is crucial. Familiarize yourself with the different types of customers (regular vs. one-time) and their implications for transactions.
