Wrong sales area on return PO (to external vendor)

[former_member283293]

Hello experts,

Our organization have two sets of company codes/sales orgs and plants where Company Code A and Sales Org A is assigned to Plant A and Company Code B and Sales Org B is assigned to plant B

But our business also uses intercompany process and due to that we have assigned plant B to sales org A in this IMG step:

Sales and Distribution u2013 Billing u2013 Intercompany Billing u2013 Assign Organizational Units pr Plant.

This is according to standard intercompany setup and works fine.

The problem is that when we create vendor return PO from plant B, we do not get any shipping data as SAP looks to Sales Area data for sales org A and not B as before we set up intercompany.

Any ideas why this happens any how we can avoid it?

does your material master have sales data views for the sales org A?

Because SAP determines the sales org from the customizing table of the plant T001W and searches for master data maintained in that sales org.

Hello and thank you for your reply,

The customizing that I did to set up intercompany billing connected plant B to sales org A, and that is visible in table T001W. (plant B has sales org A in this table and when I change the customizing back, it is plant B and sales org B).

By extending the material to sales org A, I managed to get shipping data in my return purchase order from plant B, but the shipping data in this PO contanins sales org A even if I return from plant B.

Is it not possible to return goods from sales org B/plant B after setting up intercompany billing?
