project stock exist in a plant and WBS but with different company code

[Former Member]

Hello,

As I know I can not create a PO in company A, but was assigned to a WBS maintained in company code B. The system will check if the WBS getting the same company code with the PO, and pop up the error message if the company code was differect.

But seems the project stock could exists in a plant but assign to WBS was maintained with different company code. For example, A material stock was in plant A assigned to company code A, and it is also assigned to WBS belong to company code B.

Any one know it is correct?

Thanks!

I knew crossing company code to assign WBS element to PO is not allowed since i got the error message, and I think it's reasonable, cause the expense from the project PO should post to the same company code through the WBS element.

But why for the inventory crossing company code is allowed? The stock in plant A belong to company code A, was assigned to WBS element B belong to company code B. That means the inventory is in the GL balance of company A but under the profit center belong to company B. How to understand it? I think it's wrong

Hi,

You are wrongly assigned WBS element belong to Company code B during PO creation of company code A because cross company code WBS is not accepted in SAP during PO check and also error message (red color)displayed.

So, you have to assign correct WBS element during PO belongs to respective company code and plant only for without error message and SAVE the PO.

Hope, it is clear for you.
