    2. Adjust Document Division: If the division of the document you are creating is incorrect, you may need to change it to match the reference document's division.

    4. Consult with SAP Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting SAP documentation for further guidance.

    Related Information:
