  SAP Error Message:
  W_CB090 Industry key &1 does not exist
  
  Cause:
  This warning message occurs when the system tries to reference an Industry Key (also called Industry Sector) that is not defined or does not exist in the system. The Industry Key is a classification used in SAP to categorize business partners, customers, or vendors according to their industry sector.
  The placeholder &1 in the message will be replaced by the actual Industry Key value that the system could not find.
  Common scenarios causing this error include:
  
  The Industry Key entered in master data (e.g., customer master, vendor master, or business partner) is invalid or mistyped.
  The Industry Key has not been maintained in the customizing tables.
  Data migration or interface errors where invalid Industry Keys are passed to SAP.
  Custom programs or enhancements referencing non-existent Industry Keys.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Industry Key entered:
  
  Go to the master data record (customer/vendor/business partner) and verify the Industry Key field.
  Correct any typos or invalid entries.
  
  
  
  Maintain the Industry Key in Customizing:
  
  Use transaction code SPRO to navigate to the customizing path:
  SAP Reference IMG ? Logistics General ? Business Partner ? Basic Settings ? Industry Key
  
  Alternatively, the path might be:
  SAP Reference IMG ? Cross-Application Components ? Industry Sector
  
  Here, check if the Industry Key in question exists.
  If it does not exist, create a new Industry Key with the appropriate description.
  
  
  
  Check Data Migration or Interfaces:
  
  If the error occurs during data upload or interface processing, verify the source data for valid Industry Keys.
  Correct the source data or map invalid keys to valid ones.
  
  
  
  Check Custom Code:
  
  If custom programs or user exits are involved, review the code to ensure it references valid Industry Keys.
