  Cause:
  The error message VR753 typically occurs in the Sales and Distribution (SD) module during sales order processing or billing when the system expects the user to enter or confirm the Sold-to Party information but it is missing or incorrectly entered.

  The system requires the cursor to be positioned on the Sold-to Party field to either enter or verify the customer number.

  When does it occur?
  
  During creation or change of sales documents (e.g., sales orders, quotations).
  When partner determination is incomplete or missing.
  When the system cannot find a valid Sold-to Party for the transaction.
  Sometimes during billing or delivery processing if the Sold-to Party is not properly maintained.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Enter or Correct the Sold-to Party:
  
  Place the cursor on the Sold-to Party field.
  Enter a valid customer number (Sold-to Party).

  Verify that the partner determination procedure is correctly assigned to the sales document type.

  Confirm that the Sold-to Party customer master record is active and valid.
  Check if the customer is assigned to the correct sales area.
