I am trying to post sales order through API. I am already creating a customer through API and when I am associating that created customer in the sales order post body
I am getting this error code: 'Application_FieldValidationException', message: 'D394 Partner type. must not be in Customer: No.=CI00088 CorrelationId: 26f438d2-a6ab-4a77-9af0-a068d2437dba.'.

While Creating customer I am not passing any partner type, Hence how may I getting this error ? Also what is this error ?

Agree with the previous response, The error indicates that the Partner Type field on the customer record must be set to a valid value ("Person" or "Company"). Try to create manually sales order and check.

Well the error states tat the Partner Type cannot be empty. In customer card this field can have 3 options - empty, person or Company.

I assume there is another modification on your system, that is blocking this.
Have You tried to create manually a sales order for such customer, where Partner Type = Empty ? I would guess that You would receive the same error, that Partner Type cannot be empty.

But when I am trying to associate this customer in the sales post body

}
]
}

I am getting this error

}

We are simply creating a customer without adding any partner type and then using that customer in our sales order
What is this error D394 Partner Type ? and how it is connected to customer ?

Can you create a SO and post manually using the customer created via API?

Looks like there is a customization which is expecting some value except blank in partner type field.
