Symptom
- Partner Bank Type is not shown in the Create Supplier Invoice / Create Incoming Invoices app even though it is maintained in supplier master data.
- Error FH402: Partner bank type not registered.
- Issue observed intermittently since June 2024.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Maintain a supplier with bank account information and a partner bank type in business partner/supplier master data.
- Open the app Create Incoming Invoices (Create Supplier Invoice).
- Enter the supplier, go to the Payment tab, and attempt to display/select the Partner Bank Type (for example, using the value help).
- Observe that the Partner Bank Type is missing and/or the system raises error FH402: Partner bank type not registered.
Cause
A data synchronization inconsistency between business partner bank data (table BUT0BK) and supplier bank data (table LFBK) can cause the Partner Bank Type value help to be unavailable and lead to FH402.
Resolution
The solution of this issue is currently under investigation.
Temporary workaround to restore consistency:
- Open the business partner/supplier master data.
- Perform a non-substantive (dummy) change and save to initiate a resynchronization from BUT0BK to LFBK.
- Reopen Create Incoming Invoices and retry selecting the Partner Bank Type.
