SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: MEPO - New Purchase Order Dialog

• Message number: 866

• Message text: Cross-company-code purchasing with different local currency not possible

What causes this issue?

You are creating a purchase order item with multiple account assignments
and want to use an account assignment object that is assigned to company
code &V1& with local currency &V2&. However, you are creating the
purchase order for company code &V3& with local currency &V4&.
In the purchase order items on the <ZK>Delivery</> tab, you have
deselected the <ZK>Goods Receipt</> checkbox. That is why you can also
create account assignment objects for the purchase order item that
belong to a different company code than the purchase order. However,
this company code must have the same local currency as the company code
for which you have created the purchase order. If you are expecting a
valuated goods receipt, you can only use account assignment objects that
have the same company code as the purchase order.

System Response

For purchase order items with multiple account assignments,
cross-company-code purchase order handling is not possible, even if you
have excluded goods receipts for these purchase order items.
This is an error message. You cannot use this account assignment object
in the purchase order item with multiple account assignments.

How to fix this error?

Use a different account assignment object that is assigned to company
code &V3&, or that belongs to a company code with local currency &V4&.
