    SAP Error Message WR144

    Message Text:
    No valid plant and/or distribution channel entered: &1 &2 &3


    Cause

    This error occurs when the system cannot find a valid combination of Plant and/or Distribution Channel for the given sales document or transaction. The placeholders &1, &2, and &3 typically represent the values entered or missing for:

    • &1 = Sales Organization
    • &2 = Distribution Channel
    • &3 = Plant

    The system checks the master data and configuration to verify if the entered combination exists and is valid. If the combination is not maintained or is incorrect, the error is triggered.


    Common Scenarios Leading to WR144

    • The Plant is not assigned to the Sales Organization and Distribution Channel in the configuration.
    • The Distribution Channel is not assigned to the Sales Organization.
    • The entered Plant is incorrect or does not exist in the system.
    • The sales document references a Plant or Distribution Channel that is not valid for the Sales Organization.
    • Master data inconsistencies or missing entries in the customizing tables.

    Solution

    1. Check Configuration:

      • Go to SPRO ? Enterprise Structure ? Assignment ? Sales and Distribution ? Assign Plant to Sales Organization and Distribution Channel
        Transaction code: OVX5
        Verify that the Plant is correctly assigned to the Sales Organization and Distribution Channel combination.
    2. Verify Master Data:

      • Check if the Plant exists and is active in the system (Transaction: OX10).
      • Check if the Distribution Channel is assigned to the Sales Organization (Transaction: OVX6).
    3. Correct the Sales Document Data:

      • Ensure that the Plant and Distribution Channel entered in the sales document are valid and consistent with the configuration.
      • If the Plant is entered manually, verify the correctness of the Plant code.
    4. Adjust or Maintain Missing Assignments:

      • If the assignment is missing, maintain the required entries in the customizing tables.
      • After maintaining, test the transaction again.
    5. Check for User Exits or Enhancements:

      • Sometimes, custom code may override or validate Plant and Distribution Channel entries. Review any user exits or BADIs that might affect this validation.
