Symptom
Uploading customer master data with sales partners information using the SAP Migration Cockpit the following error occurs:
Mandatory partner function XX is missing for sales area XXX XXX
Environment
S/4HANA Cloud
SAP Migration Cockpit
Reproducing the Issue
Try to upload customer master data with sales partners information using the SAP Migration Cockpit.
Cause
There are two typical root causes for this issue:
1, Language dependent partner function name (SP, SH, PY, BP or ER) is used instead of language independent name (AG, WE, RG, RE or ZM).
2, "Sales Partner" sheet of template is filled, but with only one mandatory partner function.
Resolution
1, Read the actual tooltip of the column header "Partner Function" in the migration template:
2, Need to provide all mandatory partner functions or none.
2a, Leave the "Partner Function" sheet empty. In this case as described in the Mapping Instructions:
"The mandatory partner functions will be created automatically with the same customer number."
2b, Provide all mandatory partner functions (RE, RG, WE and AG) with the same customer number.
