  The SAP error message ME002 ("Company code & is not defined") typically occurs when you are trying to perform a transaction related to purchasing or materials management, and the system cannot find the specified company code in its configuration. This can happen for several reasons, and here are the common causes, solutions, and related information:
  Causes:

  Check Company Code Definition:
  
  Go to the transaction code OBY6 (or SPRO -> Financial Accounting -> General Ledger Accounting -> Master Data -> G/L Accounts -> Edit, Copy, Delete, Check G/L Account) to verify if the company code is defined.
  If it is not defined, you will need to create it.

  Correct Data Entry:
  
  Double-check the company code entered in the transaction for any typographical errors.
