• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WU126 - Different purchasing organization for material & &, supplier & ?

  The SAP error message WU126 indicates that there is a mismatch between the purchasing organization assigned to a material and the purchasing organization associated with the supplier in the system. This error typically occurs during the procurement process when trying to create or process a purchase order or a purchase requisition.
  Cause:
  
  Different Purchasing Organizations: The material is assigned to a different purchasing organization than the one assigned to the supplier. This can happen if the material master data and vendor master data are not aligned.
  Vendor Master Data: The vendor may not be set up for the specific purchasing organization that is being used in the transaction.
  Material Master Data: The material may not be extended to the purchasing organization that is being used in the transaction.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to the material master record (transaction code MM03) and check the purchasing organization data. Ensure that the material is extended to the correct purchasing organization.

  Check Vendor Master Data:
  
  Go to the vendor master record (transaction code XK03 or MK03) and verify that the vendor is set up for the purchasing organization you are trying to use.

  Align Data: Ensure that both the material and vendor are aligned to the same purchasing organization. This may involve updating either the material or vendor master data.
