  SAP Error Message: WZ170 - Blocked by a receiver type with errors
  
  
  Cause:
  The error message WZ170 typically occurs in the context of IDoc processing or EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) scenarios in SAP. It indicates that the processing of an IDoc or a message is blocked because one or more receiver types (partner functions or partner profiles) associated with the message have errors.
  More specifically:
  
  When an IDoc is being processed and sent to multiple receivers (partners), if one or more receiver types have errors (e.g., incorrect partner profiles, missing configuration, or data inconsistencies), the system blocks the entire message or processing step.
  This blocking prevents the message from being processed further or sent out until the errors related to the receiver types are resolved.
  It can also occur if the receiver partner profile is not properly maintained
