    SAP Error Message:
    VP110 - Select a partner


    Cause:

    The error message VP110 - Select a partner typically occurs in SAP Sales and Distribution (SD) module when the system expects a partner function to be assigned to a sales document (such as a sales order, quotation, or contract), but no partner has been selected or entered.

    In SAP SD, partner functions represent the roles of business partners involved in a sales document, such as Sold-to party, Ship-to party, Bill-to party, Payer, etc. Some partner functions are mandatory depending on the document type and configuration. If a mandatory partner function is missing, the system throws this error.


    When does it occur?

    • During creation or processing of sales documents (e.g., sales order, quotation).
    • When a mandatory partner function is not assigned.
    • When partner determination procedure is not properly maintained or partner data is incomplete.
    • When user tries to save or proceed without selecting a required partner.

    Solution:

    1. Check Partner Functions in the Document:

      • Go to the sales document screen.
      • Navigate to the Partners tab.
      • Ensure that all mandatory partner functions (e.g., Sold-to party, Ship-to party, Payer) are assigned with valid partner numbers.
    2. Verify Partner Determination Procedure:

      • Use transaction VOPA or SPRO to check the partner determination procedure assigned to the sales document type.
      • Ensure that the partner functions are correctly configured and mandatory partners are set as required.
    3. Maintain Partner Master Data:

      • Verify that the partner numbers entered are valid and active.
      • Check if the partner master data (customer master) is properly maintained.
    4. Check Copy Control (if applicable):

      • If the document is created by copying from another document, ensure that partner data is copied correctly.
      • Use transaction VTAA or VTFA to check copy control settings.
    5. User Training / Data Entry:

      • Train users to always enter mandatory partners before saving the document.
      • Use input help (F4) to select valid partners.
