• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W0CSRS005 - Select one sales document type as the default ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  W0CSRS005 – Select one sales document type as the default
  
  Cause:
  This warning message appears when you are configuring sales document types in SAP (typically in the Sales and Distribution module) and have not assigned a default sales document type in the relevant customizing activity. The system requires exactly one sales document type to be marked as the default to ensure proper processing and determination of sales documents during transactions.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During configuration of sales document types (e.g., order types, delivery types, billing types).
  When setting up or maintaining sales document type determination procedures.
  When the system tries to determine a sales document type but no default is set.
  Often encountered in customizing under SPRO ? Sales and Distribution ? Sales ? Sales Documents ? Sales Document Header ? Define Sales Document Types or related areas.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Assign a Default Sales Document Type:
  
  Go to the customizing path for sales document types:
  SPRO ? Sales and Distribution ? Sales ? Sales Documents ? Sales Document Header ? Define Sales Document Types
  
  Select the relevant sales document type group or procedure.
  Identify the sales document types listed.
  Mark exactly one sales document type as the default by selecting the checkbox or flag for default.
  
  
  
  Save the Configuration:
  
  After marking the default, save your changes.
  
  
  
  Verify:
  
  Ensure that only one sales document type is set as default.
  Test the sales document creation process to confirm the system picks the default document type correctly.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  The default sales document type acts as a fallback when the system cannot determine the document type based on other criteria.
  Not setting a default can cause issues in sales order processing, delivery creation, or billing.
  This message is a warning (W), so it may not stop configuration but should be resolved to avoid runtime issues.
  If multiple sales document types are used in a process, the default helps the system to pick one when no other determination logic applies.
