  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRB002 - Sales org. and/or distribution channel does not exist for plant &1 ?

    The SAP error message WRB002: Sales org. and/or distribution channel does not exist for plant &1 typically occurs during sales order processing or related transactions when the system cannot find a valid combination of sales organization, distribution channel, and plant in the configuration.


    Cause:

    • The combination of Sales Organization, Distribution Channel, and Plant is not maintained or assigned in the system.
    • Specifically, the plant is not assigned to the sales organization and distribution channel in the Sales and Distribution (SD) organizational data.
    • This means the system cannot determine the correct sales area for the plant involved in the transaction.

    Explanation:

    In SAP SD, the sales area is defined by the combination of:

    • Sales Organization
    • Distribution Channel
    • Division

    Additionally, plants must be assigned to sales organizations and distribution channels to ensure that the system can process sales documents correctly.

    If the plant is not assigned to the sales organization and distribution channel, the system throws this error because it cannot find a valid sales area for the plant.


    Solution:

    1. Check Plant Assignment:

      • Go to transaction OVX5 (Assign Plant to Sales Organization and Distribution Channel).
      • Verify if the plant is assigned to the sales organization and distribution channel.
      • If not assigned, create the assignment.
    2. Maintain Sales Area Data for Plant:

      • Ensure that the plant is correctly maintained in the sales area data.
      • Use transaction SPRO ? Logistics Execution ? Shipping ? Basic Shipping Functions ? Assign Plants to Shipping Points and Sales Organizations.
    3. Verify Sales Area Configuration:

      • Check if the sales organization and distribution channel exist and are active.
      • Use transaction OVX5 or OVX3 to verify assignments.
    4. Check Master Data:

      • Verify the customer master and material master data to ensure the correct sales area is used.
      • Use transactions XD03 (Display Customer) and MM03 (Display Material).

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • OVX5 – Assign Plant to Sales Organization and Distribution Channel
      • OVX3 – Assign Sales Organization to Company Code
      • XD03 – Display Customer Master
      • MM03 – Display Material Master
    • SAP Notes:
