  SAP Error Message:
  
  WPSOR002 – Main work center &1 plant &2 does not exist
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when the system cannot find the specified main work center in the given plant during operations such as production order processing, routing, or work center assignment. Essentially, the work center you are trying to reference or assign does not exist or is not maintained for the specified plant.
  
  Explanation:
  
  The placeholder &1 represents the work center ID.
  The placeholder &2 represents the plant code.
  The system checks the master data for the work center in the specified plant and fails to find it.
  
  
  Common Scenarios:
  
  Creating or changing a routing or production order where the main work center is assigned.
  Using a work center that is not created or assigned to the plant in the system.
  Data inconsistencies or missing master data in the work center or plant assignment.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Work Center Master Data:
  
  Go to transaction CR03 (Display Work Center) or CR01 (Create Work Center).
  Enter the work center ID (&1) and plant (&2).
  Verify if the work center exists in the specified plant.
  
  
  
  Create or Maintain Work Center:
  
  If the work center does not exist for the plant, create it using CR01.
  Ensure all mandatory fields are filled, including plant assignment.
  
  
  
  Check Routing or Production Order:
  
  Verify that the routing or production order references the correct work center and plant.
  Adjust the routing or order if necessary to use an existing work center.
  
  
  
  Check Plant Assignment:
  
  Sometimes the work center exists but is not assigned to the correct plant.
  Adjust the plant assignment in the work center master data.
  
  
  
  Transport and Data Consistency:
  
  If this is a system landscape issue (e.g., development to production), ensure the work center master data is transported correctly.
  Check for inconsistencies or missing transports.
