  SAP Error Message:
  
  WRF_PPW855
  
  Text: Org. set category is organization; cannot add org. set site groups
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when you try to add site groups to an organizational set that is defined with the category "organization" rather than "site group". In SAP, organizational sets are categorized either as:
  
  Organization (e.g., plants, company codes, sales organizations), or  
  Site groups (groups of sites/plants).
  
  If the organizational set is created with the category organization, it is not allowed to add site groups to it. The system enforces this to maintain data consistency and organizational structure integrity.
  
  Explanation
  
  Organizational Set Category: Determines what kind of objects can be assigned to the set.
  If the category is organization, only organizational units (like plants, sales orgs) can be added.
  If the category is site group, only site groups can be added.
  Mixing these categories is not allowed.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check the Organizational Set Category:
  
  Go to transaction PPOME or the relevant organizational management transaction.
  Check the category of the organizational set you are trying to modify.
  
  
  
  Correct the Category or Use the Correct Set:
  
  If you need to add site groups, create or use an organizational set with the category site group.
  If the set is incorrectly created as category organization, you cannot change the category later. You must create a new organizational set with the correct category.
  
  
  
  Assign Objects Consistently:
  
  Add only organizational units to sets with category organization.
  Add only site groups to sets with category site group.
  
  
  
  If you mistakenly tried to add site groups to an organization category set, remove those entries and add them to the correct set.
