Symptom
The below two warning messages appear when previewing the output of the sales document:
• Form Language can't be initial
• Form country/region can't be initial
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Cause
The role "ZM" may have (or haven't) been assigned to the output type, e.g., ORDER_CONFIRMATION in the "Output Parameter Determinations" app. However, the partner function "ER - Employee Responsible" (whose corresponding role in output is "ZM") is not maintained in the "Maintain Business Partner" app for the sold-to party (&1) of the sales document. As a result, this partner function cannot be auto-determined in the sales document and no form language or form country/region can be found for the role "ZM" in the output overview page.
Resolution
Follow the below detailed steps:
- Open the "Maintain Business Partner" app and search for the sold-to party (&1) of the sales document.
- Display it in the BP role "Customer" and switch to the "Change" mode.
- Click the "Sales and Distribution" button.
- Switch to the "Partner Functions" tab in the "Change Organization: &1, role Customer" page.
- Add a new line for the partner function "ER" (Employee Responsible).
- Retrigger the output.
