  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WRF_PPW686 Price plan &1: organization level &2 is not contained in org. set &3
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to assign or use a Price Plan in a context where the organizational level specified is not included in the organizational set assigned to that price plan.
  
  Price Plan &1: The specific price plan you are working with.
  Organization level &2: The organizational level (e.g., Sales Organization, Distribution Channel, Division) you are trying to use or assign.
  Org. set &3: The organizational set assigned to the price plan.
  
  In SAP Pricing, a Price Plan is linked to an Organizational Set which defines the valid organizational levels (like Sales Org, Distribution Channel, Division) for which the price plan is valid. If you try to use the price plan for an organizational level outside this set, the system throws this error.
  
  Typical Scenario:
  
  You have a price plan assigned to an organizational set that includes, for example, Sales Org A and Distribution Channel 01.
  You try to use this price plan for Sales Org B or Distribution Channel 02, which is not part of the organizational set.
  The system detects this mismatch and raises the error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Organizational Set assigned to the Price Plan:
  
  Use transaction WRF_PPW or relevant IMG path to check the organizational set linked to the price plan.
  Verify which organizational levels are included in this set.
  
  
  
  Adjust the Organizational Set:
  
  If the organizational level you want to use should be valid, add it to the organizational set.
  This can be done via customizing in the IMG under Pricing or Price Planning settings.
  
  
  
  Use a Correct Price Plan:
  
  If the organizational level is not supposed to be included, use a price plan that is assigned to an organizational set containing the required organizational level.
  
  
  
  Check Master Data Consistency:
  
  Ensure that the organizational data in your sales documents or pricing conditions matches the organizational set definitions.
