• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message OB135 - Plants & and & have different company codes ?

  The SAP error message OB135 indicates that there is a mismatch in the company codes associated with the plants you are trying to work with. This error typically occurs when you are attempting to perform a transaction that involves multiple plants, but those plants are assigned to different company codes in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Different Company Codes: The primary cause of this error is that the plants you are trying to use in a transaction are assigned to different company codes. In SAP, each plant is linked to a specific company code, and operations involving multiple plants must be within the same company code.
  Configuration Issues: There may be a configuration issue in the system where the plants are not correctly assigned to the intended company codes.
  Data Entry Errors: Sometimes, the error can arise from incorrect data entry or selection of plants in the transaction.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Plant Assignments:
  
  Go to the transaction code OX10 (or SPRO -> Enterprise Structure -> Definition -> Logistics - General -> Define, copy, delete, check plant).
  Verify the company code assignments for the plants involved in the transaction. Ensure that they are assigned to the same company code.
  
  
  
  Adjust Transaction:

  Reconfigure if Necessary:
  
  If the plant assignments are incorrect and need to be changed, you may need to reconfigure the plant assignments in the system. This typically requires appropriate authorization and should be done with caution to avoid disrupting other processes.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific guidance on how to handle plant and company code assignments.
  
  
  
  User Training:
