  Cause
  
  Missing or incorrect master data: The VAT registration number used in the document (sales or purchase document) is not linked to any business partner or vendor/customer master record in the Intrastat reporting setup.

  Solution
  
  
  Check VAT Registration Number:
  
  Verify that the VAT registration number in the document is correct.
  Check the master data of the business partner/vendor/customer to ensure the VAT number is maintained properly.
  
  
  
  Maintain Information Provider:
  
  Go to transaction WE20 (Partner Profiles) or SNRO (Number Range Objects) if relevant, but more specifically:
  Use transaction WE20 or SNRO only if related to IDocs or number ranges.
  For Intrastat, maintain the information provider in the customizing:
  
  SPRO ? Logistics Execution ? Foreign Trade/Customs ? Intrastat ? Basic Settings ? Define Information Providers.

  Update Master Data:
  
  If the VAT number is missing in the business partner/vendor/customer master, update it in transaction BP (Business Partner) or XK03/VD03/FD03 (Vendor/Customer display).
  Ensure the VAT registration number is maintained in the correct field (usually in the tax data or company code data).
  
  
  
  Run Intrastat Reporting:
  
  After correcting the master data and configuration, re-run the Intrastat report.
