  Correct Organizational Units: If you find discrepancies, correct the organizational units in the document. This may involve changing the company code or plant for specific line items to ensure they match.
  
  
  Split the Document: If the document legitimately contains items from different organizational units, consider splitting the document into separate transactions, each containing items from a single organizational unit.
