Cause

The Business Partner does not exist, but Request Payload is trying to perform an update for the Business Partner in the S/4HANA Cloud system. In such a scenario, the field ReceiverInternalID in the Request Payload is filled. 

Resolution

  • When performing an update for a Business Partner in SAP S/4HANA Cloud, ensure that the Business Partner already exists in the system. Before triggering the update, verify the Business Partner using the Maintain Business Partner or related Fiori apps such as Manage Business Partner Master Data, Manage Customer Master Data, and Manage Supplier Master Data.
  • If the Business Partner does not exist in the SAP S/4HANA Cloud, it is treated as a new Business Partner. In this case, during replication from the external system to SAP S/4HANA Cloud, the incoming request payload must not contain a value in the ReceiverInternalID field; it should be left blank. Clear the ReceiverInternalID in the request payload and then trigger the replication again from the external system to the SAP S/4HANA Cloud system.
