No Sales area could be determined

Former Member

I am new to SD

While creating sales order i am getting following error

No sales area could be determined

Message no. VP102

Diagnosis

No sales area could be determined for the order type and customer selected.

Procedure

1. Enter a customer who is defined in a sales area that is also allowed for the selected order type.

2. Select an order type in the initial screen that is allowed for the customer's permitted sales areas

I have done all the settings in OVAZ.

Then also it is giving error.

Why is RefSal and RefDiv. necessary?

Please help.

Dear Nitin,

Can you please update with Customer Sales Area(s) in XD02?

Also, the Sales Area with which you are creating Sales Order?

Best Regards,

Amit

Note: As far as, your query:

Why is RefSal and RefDiv. necessary?

Refer, my third-last post (in response to same query by Sushant's):

[Define first as a general sales area|;

The above-said Thread, will also help you about maintaining config-settings, in sequence and relevant transaction (refer 1st post).

Also, have you checked with T. Code: OVH3

Hi Nitin

please check whether the material and the customer you are entering in the Order are created for same sales area or not?

Ex. if u created Material for AI01 A1 you also need to create the Customer in the same sales area. and vice versa

Dear Nitin,

As you have already confirmed about Config-setting in T. Code: OVX6

Also, check with T. Code: OX18

Once done, check with

CMR (in XD02) - check whether the right plant is being maintained in Tab: Sales Area Data

Also, MMR (in MM02) - check whether the right plant is being maintained in View: Sales: General/Plant

Please update.

Best Regards,

Amit

Important: Please make sure, at every Config-settings, following data are same:

Company Code

Sales Org

Dist. Chnl

Division

Customer

Material

Dear Nitin

Please check your assignments in

OVAO Combine sales org

OVAM Combine Distribution channels

OVAN Combine divisions

OVAZ Assign sales ares to permitted order types

Reference sales org means for sales org 1000 if you have assigned the reference sales org as 1001 in OVAO then whenever you create an order type say OR for sales org 1000 in VA01 then system will check whether the entry in 1001

On the front end you put 1000 sales org in VA01 then background system veries the entry in the reference sales org that is assigned to 1000 and in our case it is 1001

Similarly for distribution channels and divisions

Also in VOR1 common Distribution channels and VOR2 Common divisions

Please check have you created the customer to whom you are placing order is created with sales area data

Dear Nitin,

please follow all the instructions provided by Mr. Raja but before doing all the setting check customer sales area in XD02.

It will surely work.

Dear Nitin,

Hi Nitin

You need to assign Pricing procedure to your sales area before u create an order if you created your new enterprise structure.

you can do this in Tcode -> VOK0
