  The SAP error message SEPA_CI_LIMIT013 indicates that both the IBAN (International Bank Account Number) and the internal account ID are filled in the same context, which is not allowed. This error typically occurs in the context of SEPA (Single Euro Payments Area) transactions, where the system expects either an IBAN or an internal account ID, but not both.
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  A user or a process attempts to create or process a payment or transaction where both the IBAN and the internal account ID fields are populated.
  The system is designed to use one identifier for the transaction, and having both leads to ambiguity.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should:
  
  
  Identify the Source of the Data: Check the transaction or data entry point where the error is occurring. This could be in a payment run, a vendor master record, or a customer master record.
  
  
  Remove One of the Identifiers: 
  
  If you are using an IBAN, ensure that the internal account ID field is left blank.
  Conversely, if you need to use the internal account ID, make sure the IBAN field is empty.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration: If this error is occurring frequently, review the configuration settings in your SAP system to ensure that the fields are set up correctly and that there are no conflicting settings.
  
  
  Data Validation: Implement data validation checks in your processes to prevent both fields from being filled in the future.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidelines on handling SEPA transactions and the requirements for account identifiers.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SEPA Compliance: Ensure that your SAP system is compliant with SEPA regulations, which may have specific requirements for payment processing.
