• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WOD1201 - The purchase order contains more than one plant ?

  The SAP error message WOD1201 ("The purchase order contains more than one plant") typically occurs when you are trying to process a purchase order (PO) that includes line items from multiple plants. In SAP, each line item in a purchase order is usually associated with a specific plant, and the system expects all line items in a single PO to belong to the same plant.
  
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Plants in PO: The primary cause of this error is that the purchase order has line items that are assigned to different plants. SAP does not allow a single purchase order to contain items from more than one plant.
