• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VN602 - No active receiver found for partner & ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  VN602 No active receiver found for partner &
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs in SAP when the system tries to send an IDoc (Intermediate Document) to a partner but cannot find an active receiver partner profile for the specified partner number. In other words, the partner profile for the given partner number is either not maintained, inactive, or incorrectly configured in the system.
  
  Explanation:
  
  The message indicates that the system attempted to send an IDoc to a partner (business partner, vendor, customer, etc.) but failed because the partner profile is missing or inactive.
  This typically happens during outbound IDoc processing or when the system tries to determine the receiver partner for an EDI or ALE message.
  The partner number (&) in the message is the partner ID for which the system could not find an active receiver.
  
  
  Common Causes:
  
  Partner Profile Not Maintained: The partner profile for the given partner number does not exist in the system.
  Partner Profile Inactive: The partner profile exists but is set to inactive.
  Incorrect Partner Number: The partner number used in the IDoc or message is incorrect or does not match any active partner profile.
  Missing or Incorrect Partner Type: The partner type (e.g., KU for customer, LI for vendor, LS for logical system) is not correctly assigned or missing.
  Partner Profile Not Assigned to Logical System: In ALE scenarios, the partner profile might not be assigned to the correct logical system.
  Configuration Issues in WE20: The partner profile configuration in transaction WE20 is incomplete or missing.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Partner Profile in WE20:
  
  Go to transaction WE20 (Partner Profiles).
  Verify if the partner number mentioned in the error message exists.
  Check if the partner profile is active.
  Ensure the partner type is correct (e.g., KU, LI, LS).
  If missing, create a new partner profile for the partner number.
  If inactive, activate the partner profile.
  
  
  
  Verify Logical System Assignment:
  
  For ALE scenarios, ensure the partner profile is assigned to the correct logical system.
  Check transaction SALE or BD54 for logical system assignments.
  
  
  
  Check Partner Number in IDoc:
  
  Verify the partner number used in the IDoc or message is correct.
  If the partner number is dynamically determined, check the logic or mapping that assigns the partner number.
  
  
  
  Activate Partner Profile:
  
  In WE20, select the partner profile and ensure the "Active" checkbox is selected.
  
  
  
  Check Distribution Model:
  
  For ALE, verify the distribution model (transaction BD64) includes the partner and logical system.
  
  
  
  Reprocess the IDoc:
  
  After correcting the partner profile, reprocess the IDoc or resend the message.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  
  Transaction Codes:
  
  WE20: Maintain Partner Profiles
  WE02 / WE05: IDoc Display and Monitoring
  BD64: Distribution Model
  SALE: Logical System Assignment
  SM58: Check for any related RFC errors
  
  
  
  Notes:
  
  Always ensure that the partner profile matches the business scenario (e.g., customer, vendor, logical system).
  If the partner profile is maintained but still inactive, check for authorization or system status issues.
  In some cases, the error may also occur if the partner profile is maintained but the message type or process code is missing.
