• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WP423 - Aggregated sales control not maintained ?

  The SAP error message WP423 - Aggregated sales control not maintained typically occurs in the context of sales and distribution (SD) or sales planning processes, especially when working with sales planning, sales forecasting, or sales order processing.
  
  Cause:
  The error WP423 indicates that the aggregated sales control data has not been maintained for the relevant combination of sales organization, distribution channel, division, or other controlling parameters in the system. This aggregated sales control is necessary for certain sales planning or sales order processing functions to work correctly.
  In other words, the system expects that aggregated sales control data (which controls how sales data is aggregated and processed) should be maintained for the organizational units involved, but it is missing.
  
  Where does this occur?
  
  Sales planning (transaction like MC+E or MC+S)
  Sales forecasting
  Sales order processing with certain planning or control settings
  Possibly in integration with demand management or production planning
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Maintain Aggregated Sales Control Data:
  You need to maintain the aggregated sales control for the relevant organizational units. This is done in the IMG under:
  SPRO -> Sales and Distribution -> Sales -> Sales Planning -> Aggregated Sales Control -> Maintain Aggregated Sales Control
  Or via transaction code OVZ9 (depending on SAP version).
  
  
  Steps:
  
  Go to transaction OVZ9 or the corresponding IMG path.
  Enter the relevant sales organization, distribution channel, division, and other controlling parameters.
  Maintain the aggregated sales control data as required.
  Save the entries.
  
  
  
  Check Master Data Consistency:
  
  Ensure that the sales organization, distribution channel, and division combinations are correctly maintained.
  Verify that the sales area is properly configured.
  
  
  
  Re-run the process:
  
  After maintaining the aggregated sales control, re-execute the sales planning or sales order process that triggered the error.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Aggregated sales control is used to define how sales data is aggregated for planning and reporting.
  Missing aggregated sales control data can cause issues in sales planning reports, forecasting, and integration with production planning.
  This setting is especially important in environments where sales data is planned or forecasted at aggregated levels rather than individual sales orders.
