  Error Message: VN083
  Text:
  Do not enter a partner function in partner-independent output
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to enter a partner function in an output type that is defined as partner-independent in SAP. 
  
  Partner-independent output means the output is generated without reference to any business partner (such as customer, vendor, or contact person).
  If you enter a partner function (like sold-to party, ship-to party, payer, etc.) in such an output, the system throws this error because the output is not designed to handle partner-specific data.
  
  
  Explanation:
  
  In SAP, output types can be configured as either partner-dependent or partner-independent.
  Partner-dependent outputs require a partner function to determine the recipient or the context of the output.
  Partner-independent outputs are generic and do not rely on partner data.
  Entering a partner function in a partner-independent output contradicts the configuration and
