  SAP Error Message:
  
  WRF_APC515: Enter a sales organization
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs because the system expects a Sales Organization to be entered in a particular transaction or screen, but the field is either left blank or the entered value is not valid or recognized by the system.
  In SAP, the Sales Organization is a mandatory organizational unit in sales and distribution processes. It represents the selling unit responsible for the sale of products and services.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During sales order creation or processing (e.g., VA01, VA02).
  When running reports or transactions that require sales organization data.
  In custom programs or user exits where sales organization is a required input.
  In integration scenarios where sales org data is missing or not passed correctly.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Enter a valid Sales Organization:
  
  Make sure to input a valid sales organization code in the required field.
  You can check valid sales organizations in your system via transaction OVX5 or by consulting your organizational structure.

  Authorization:
  
  Ensure the user has authorization to access the sales organization.
  
  
  
  Debugging:
