Symptom

When creating a new Credit Memo Request in app "Manage Credit Memo Request",
below error message occurs after choosing a BP in field "Ship-to Party" which is different with "Sold-to Party".
There is an order block for customer XXX (XXX block).

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud

Reproducing the Issue

  1. In BP master data, Sold-to BP isn't set any Sales Order Block, Ship-to BP is set as Sales Order Block.
  2. Create a new Credit Memo Request without reference, fill in Sold-to Party and Ship-to Party, error message occurs.

Cause

If you block sales order processing, the block counts for the following partner functions of the customer:

  • Sold-to party
  • Ship-to party
  • Payer


Resolution

This is standard system behavior although it is the correct Sold-to Party without any Sales Order Block setting in BP.
