  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message V2073 - Enter a partner. No selections possible here. ?

    The SAP error message V2073 ("Enter a partner. No selections possible here.") typically occurs in the context of sales and distribution (SD) processes, particularly when dealing with partner functions in sales documents such as sales orders, quotations, or contracts. This error indicates that the system requires a partner (such as a customer, vendor, or other business partner) to be specified, but none has been entered or selected.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Partner Data: The sales document you are trying to create or modify does not have the required partner information filled in. This could be due to the absence of a customer or vendor in the partner function fields.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: The partner determination procedure may not be set up correctly, leading to the system not being able to determine the necessary partners automatically.
    3. Document Type Settings: The document type you are using may not be configured to allow for partner determination, or it may require specific partner roles that are not being fulfilled.

    Solution:

    1. Enter Partner Information: Ensure that you fill in the required partner fields in the sales document. This typically includes customer information such as sold-to party, ship-to party, payer, and bill-to party.
    2. Check Partner Determination Procedure:
      • Go to the configuration settings for partner determination (Transaction code: SPRO).
      • Navigate to Sales and Distribution > Basic Functions > Partner Determination > Partner Determination Procedure.
      • Verify that the partner determination procedure assigned to your sales document type includes the necessary partner functions.
    3. Review Document Type Settings:
      • Check the settings for the specific document type you are using to ensure that it is configured to require the necessary partner roles.
      • Ensure that the document type is linked to the correct partner determination procedure.
    4. Test with Different Data: If you are testing with specific data, try using a different customer or vendor to see if the issue persists. This can help identify if the problem is data-specific.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as VA01 (Create Sales Order), VA02 (Change Sales Order), and VA03 (Display Sales Order) to navigate through sales documents.
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to partner determination and error V2073.
    • User Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to create or modify sales documents and partner data.
