• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 06775 - Document type & allows supplying plants with supplier assignment only ?

  The SAP error message 06775, which states "Document type & allows supplying plants with supplier assignment only," typically occurs in the context of procurement and material management processes. This error indicates that the document type you are trying to use is configured to allow only specific supplier assignments for the plants involved in the transaction.
  Cause:
  
  Document Type Configuration: The document type you are using (e.g., purchase order, purchase requisition) is set up in such a way that it restricts the assignment of suppliers to certain plants. This is often a result of configuration settings in the SAP system.
  Plant-Specific Supplier Assignment: The system is enforcing a rule that requires suppliers to be assigned to specific plants, and the current transaction does not meet this requirement.
  Missing Supplier Assignment: The supplier you are trying to use may not be assigned to the plant in question, leading to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Document Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the document type in transaction code SPRO.
  Navigate to Materials Management > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Define Document Types.
  Review the settings for the document type in question and ensure that it allows for the desired supplier assignments.
  
  
  
  Assign Supplier to Plant:
  
  Ensure that the supplier is correctly assigned to the plant you are trying to use.
  You can check this in the vendor master data using transaction code XK03 (Display Vendor) or MK03 (Display Vendor (Purchasing)).
  If the supplier is not assigned to the plant, you can assign it using transaction code XK01 (Create Vendor) or MK01 (Create Vendor (Purchasing)).
  
  
  
  Use a Different Document Type:
  
  If the current document type does not meet your needs, consider using a different document type that allows for broader supplier assignments.
