  Cause:
  This error occurs when a plant is not defined or assigned in the system for a particular transaction or master data record. Specifically, the system expects a plant to be assigned or maintained, but it is missing or not properly configured.
  Common scenarios include:
  
  The plant is not created in the system.
  The plant is not assigned to the relevant organizational units (e.g., company code, sales area).

  The user is trying to process a transaction that requires a plant, but the plant field is empty or invalid.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Plant Master Data:
  
  Use transaction OX10 to verify if the plant exists.
  If the plant does not exist, create it using transaction OX10 or the relevant IMG path:
  
  SPRO -> Enterprise Structure -> Definition -> Logistics - General -> Define, copy, delete, check plant

  Maintain Plant in Relevant Organizational Assignments:
  
  For sales and distribution, check if the plant is assigned to the sales organization and distribution channel.
  For materials management, ensure the plant is assigned to the purchasing organization if required.
  
  
  
  Check Transaction Data:
  
  Verify that the plant field is correctly filled in the transaction.
  If the plant is derived automatically, check the configuration for plant determination.
