Hi Gurus,

I'm trying to do a sales order, but i get the error: "Division 00 in the header deviates from division A4 in the item"

how can I avoid that error?. I'm using common divisions in VOR2 i have the following entries:

1100 00 00 00

1100 A1 00 00

1100 A2 00 00

1100 A3 00 00

1100 A4 00 00

in the material master my material is created in Sales Org. 1100 and Chan Dist 10. The material's sector is A4.

the customer master is created in 1100/10/00

¿what am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!!

Hi Hugo

You are not doing anything wrong.

It is the standard settings and called "Cross-division sales".

If you want to sell material of different division in one Sale order, then in the Sales Area, you have use division as"00", which stands for cross division.

So, you can say this way also, if the Header division is "00", than only system allows materials of different division to process in one Sales order.

But , system will take the actual division of the material from the material master (Basic data 1), which is called "Item division".Here in your case it is A4.

This is controlled by the field "Check Item division" in the Sales document type (VOV8).

In the "Division specific sales", "Header division" and "Item division" are always same.

In the Sales Area, if you put any specific division, suppose "02", then system will allow material of only "02" division and this called "Division specific sales".

As you are using Header division as "00", that means you are doing "Cross division sales".

System is automatically taking the actual division (Item division A4 ) from its material master, from Basic data 1, beacuse the field "check item division" is activated in the Sales document type.

If you will deactivate this field, then the header division "00" will apply to each item.

Problem is due to the division that is entered in the sale order and the divison entered in material master are not the same. This combination is not allowed as per the configuration in the sales document type. You have to decide whether you want to allow this and if yes, then proceed as mentioned by John. Otherwise the division in material master can be removed i.e. maintained as blank.
