  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W+670 - Sales office & was not found ?

    SAP Error Message:
    W+670 Sales office & was not found


    Cause:

    This warning message occurs when the system cannot find the specified Sales Office in the master data during a sales document processing or related transaction. The placeholder "&" in the message is replaced by the sales office code that was not found.

    Common reasons include:

    • The sales office code entered does not exist in the system.
    • The sales office master data has not been maintained or is inactive.
    • Typographical error or incorrect sales office code entered in the transaction.
    • The sales office is not assigned to the relevant organizational units (e.g., sales area).

    Solution:

    1. Check Sales Office Master Data:

      • Go to transaction OVX5 (or SPRO path: Logistics Execution ? Shipping ? Basic Shipping Functions ? Sales Offices ? Define Sales Offices) to verify if the sales office exists.
      • If it does not exist, create the sales office with the correct code and description.
    2. Verify Sales Office Assignment:

      • Ensure the sales office is assigned to the correct sales organization, distribution channel, and division if applicable.
      • Check the assignment in the customizing path or via transaction OVX5.
    3. Correct the Sales Office Code in the Transaction:

      • If the sales office code was entered manually, verify and correct it.
      • Use the search help (F4) to select a valid sales office.
    4. Check Authorizations:

      • Sometimes, the sales office might exist but the user does not have authorization to view or use it. Verify user roles and authorizations.
    5. Data Consistency:

      • If the sales office was recently created or changed, ensure that the relevant master data and customizing tables are consistent and activated.

    Related Information:

    • Sales Office is an organizational unit in SAP SD (Sales and Distribution) used to group sales activities geographically or functionally.
    • Sales office is often used in reporting, pricing, and sales document processing.
