organization for the purchase order and service entry sheet. The system
needs this information to map to the correct information in MM. The
system cannot create a purchase order and SES.

purchasing organization in transaction <LS>PPOME</> -> <LS>Org. Data</>
-> <LS>BSD Org. Unit</>.
When SAP TM sends the XML message for the freight settlement document,
the MM purchasing organization if maintained for the TM purchase
organization in the field BSD Org Unit is sent. On receiving such XML
on S/4 Hana system, the system uses this MM purchase organization in the
XML message to create PO and SES.
