  SAP Error Message:
  WY087 - Supplier has account group & : No partner maintenance defined
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to maintain or create a supplier master record (vendor) in SAP, and the system finds that the vendor account group assigned to the supplier does not have partner functions defined for partner maintenance. In other words, the vendor account group is missing partner determination settings, which are necessary for maintaining partner data (such as contact persons, sales representatives, etc.) linked to the vendor.
  
  Explanation:
  
  In SAP, partner functions define roles of business partners related to a vendor or customer (e.g., ordering address, invoicing party).
  Each vendor account group must have partner functions assigned in the partner determination procedure.
  If no partner functions are assigned to the vendor account group, the system cannot maintain partner data for that vendor, leading to this error.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Vendor Account Group:
