    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    WTY191 - Partner role & is not in partnermaster record for partner &


    Meaning / Cause:

    This error occurs when you try to assign or use a partner role in a business transaction (such as a sales order, delivery, billing document, etc.) for a partner number that does not have this partner role maintained in the partner master record.

    • The system checks the partner master data to verify if the partner number has the specified partner role assigned.
    • If the partner role is missing in the partner master record for that partner, the system throws this error.
    • This is a consistency check to ensure that only valid partner roles are used for partners in transactions.

    Typical Scenario:

    • You enter a partner (e.g., customer, vendor, contact person) in a document and assign a partner role (e.g., Sold-to party, Ship-to party, Payer).
    • The partner master data for that partner does not have this partner role maintained.
    • The system cannot proceed because the partner role is invalid for that partner.

    Solution / How to Fix:

    1. Check the Partner Master Data:

      • Go to the partner master record (e.g., Customer master in transaction XD03 or VD03).
      • Verify the partner roles assigned to the partner.
      • Confirm if the partner role you are trying to use in the transaction is maintained.
    2. Maintain the Missing Partner Role:

      • If the partner role is missing, add the required partner role to the partner master record.
      • For customers, use transaction VD02 (Change Customer) or XD02 (Change Customer centrally).
      • Navigate to the Partner Functions tab and add the missing partner role.
      • Save the changes.
    3. Use a Different Partner or Partner Role:

      • If adding the partner role is not appropriate, use a partner number that already has the required partner role.
      • Or use a different partner role that is valid for the partner.
    4. Check Customizing (if applicable):

      • Sometimes, partner roles are controlled via configuration.
      • Check the partner determination procedure in customizing (SPRO ? Sales and Distribution ? Partner Determination).
      • Ensure the partner role is correctly assigned and allowed for the transaction type.

    Additional Information:

    • Partner Roles are predefined roles like Sold-to party (AG), Ship-to party (WE), Bill-to party (RE), Payer (RG), etc.
    • Partner roles are essential for business processes to identify responsibilities and communication.
    • This error helps maintain data integrity and prevents incorrect partner assignments.
    • The placeholders & in the message are replaced by actual partner role and partner number during runtime.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error WTY191 - Partner role & is not in partnermaster record for partner &
