  The SAP error message:
  WY003: Purchasing data for VSR & and plant & already created
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This message indicates that the purchasing data for a specific Vendor Subrange (VSR) and Plant combination already exists in the system. In other words, you are trying to create or enter purchasing data for a vendor subrange and plant that has already been maintained in the system.
  
  VSR (Vendor Subrange): A subdivision of a vendor master record used to differentiate purchasing data for different product groups or purchasing conditions.
  Plant: The organizational unit within logistics where the purchasing data is maintained.
  
  The system prevents duplicate entries for the same VSR and plant combination to maintain data consistency.
  
  When does this occur?
  
  When you try to create purchasing info records or vendor master purchasing data for a vendor subrange and plant that already exists.
  When maintaining vendor master data (transaction XK01/XK02 or MK01/MK02) and entering purchasing data for a vendor subrange and plant combination that is already present.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check existing data:
  
  Use transaction XK03 (Display Vendor) or MK03 to check the existing purchasing data for the vendor.
  Navigate to the purchasing data tab and verify if the VSR and plant combination is already maintained.
  
  
  
  If you want to change data:
  
  Instead of creating new data, use XK02 or MK02 to change the existing purchasing data for that VSR and plant.
  
  
  
  If you want to create new data for a different VSR or plant:
  
  Ensure you enter a different vendor subrange or plant that does not already exist.

  Check for any inconsistencies or data corruption.
