  SAP Error Message:
  WY101 - Supplier &, pur. org. & not assigned to supplier hierarchy
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to process a transaction (such as creating or changing a purchase order, invoice, or other procurement documents) involving a supplier and purchasing organization combination that has not been assigned to a supplier hierarchy in SAP.
  In SAP, supplier hierarchies are used to group suppliers for reporting, approval workflows, or other business processes. If the supplier and purchasing organization are not linked to any node in the supplier hierarchy, the system cannot proceed with the transaction that requires this assignment.
  
  Explanation:
  
  The system expects that the supplier (vendor) and purchasing organization combination is assigned to a node in the supplier hierarchy.
  This assignment is necessary for processes that depend on supplier hierarchies, such as workflow approvals, supplier evaluation, or reporting.
  If the assignment is missing, the system throws the WY101 error.
  
  
  
  Solution:
