• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WX602 - More than one plant is found ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WX602 - More than one plant is found
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when a transaction or program expects a single plant to be determined automatically (for example, from user parameters or context), but multiple plants are found instead. The system cannot decide which plant to use because the user is associated with more than one plant, or the selection criteria are not specific enough to identify a unique plant.
  Common scenarios include:
  
  The user has multiple plants assigned in their user master or organizational data.
  The transaction requires a plant but the input or user context does not specify a unique plant.
  Custom code or standard SAP logic tries to determine a plant automatically but finds multiple possible plants.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Specify the Plant Explicitly:
  
  When executing the transaction or program, enter the plant manually if the system allows it. This removes ambiguity.
  
  
  Check User Parameters:  
  
  Verify if the user has a default plant set in their user parameters (transaction SU3, parameter WERKS).
  If multiple plants are relevant, consider setting a default plant or adjusting the process to specify the plant explicitly.
  
  
  
  Adjust Organizational Assignments:  
  
  Review the user’s assigned plants in the organizational data (e.g., in transaction SU01 or via HR master data).
  If the user should only work with one plant, restrict their assignments accordingly.
  
  
  
  Modify Selection Criteria:  
  
  If the error occurs in a report or custom program, enhance the selection screen or logic to require the user to select a plant.
  Ensure that the program logic handles multiple plants properly, either by prompting the user or processing all relevant plants.
  
  
  
  Check Custom Code or Enhancements:  
  
  If this error arises from custom developments, review the code where the plant is determined.
  Implement logic to handle multiple plants or prompt the user to select one.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction SU3: Maintain user parameters, including default plant (WERKS).
  Transaction SU01: User master maintenance, check assigned plants.
  Organizational Data: Plants assigned to users or roles can influence plant determination.
  Standard SAP Programs: Many standard reports and transactions expect a single plant context.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP OSS notes for any known issues related to WX602 in your SAP version.
  
  
  Summary:
  The WX602 error indicates ambiguity in plant determination due to multiple plants being found. The key to resolving it is to ensure the system or user input specifies a unique plant, either by setting default parameters, adjusting user assignments, or modifying program logic to handle multiple plants explicitly.
