• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /NFM/CA610 - Vendor & has not been created ?

  The SAP error message /NFM/CA610 Vendor & has not been created typically indicates that the system is trying to access or process a vendor that has not been set up in the system. This error is often encountered in the context of the SAP Materials Management (MM) module or when dealing with vendor-related transactions.
  Cause:
  
  Vendor Not Created: The most straightforward cause is that the vendor in question has not been created in the system.
  Incorrect Vendor Number: The vendor number being referenced may be incorrect or mistyped.
