Hi

It is not possible to the change the sales area once a sales order is created?

Delete the sales order if any subsequent documents are not created.

Hope you had not created further documents like delivery and invoice

If you had created u need to cancel all of them

like cancel the invoice in vf11 then reverse the delivery

If u have created delivery then do PGR in vl09 and delete the delivery

after deleting or entering reason for rejection create a new sales order for the required sales area

Dear Friend,

Documents in SD like - Sales Order belong to only one particular Sales area.

So once the documents are created Sales Area cannot be changed.

All you can do is delete the Sales Order if futher process are not done. Alternatively you will have to reverse all the subsequent process like delivery & Invoice, close (reject) the order & create a new onee...

Hope this helps...

Thanks,

Hi

No Not possible

As per standards every sales documents(sales orders),delivery documents,and billing documents are always assigned to a sales area and this assignment is unique

(we dont do any assignment manually system automatically assigns the order to the created sales area)

Every sales process always takes place in a specific sales area

Once a sales order created means the sales area cannot be changed

Order created for sales area 1000,10,00 and you want to change to 1000,14,00 means cancel in VF11 the billing document if at all you billed, reverse PGI in VL09 and delete delivery and close the order by assigning reason of rejection and create a new order in1000,14,00 (as suggested by others too)

Dear Ansumesh,

As, rightly suggested by Ritvika, once created, Sales Area couldn't be changed, for the Sales Order.

If, there is no subsequent document, i.e. Delivery, Invoice etc.. for this Sales Order, You may delete the Sales Order:

VA02 --> Sales Document (Menu) --> Delete

If, you have some Subsequent Document, either Reverse (Delivery) and Cancel (Invoice) the Subsequent Documents; Also, settle Accounting Documents from FI-side,

And, Mark Sales Order Items "Reason for Rejection" (as, sometimes, System doesn't allow to Delete the Sales Order line-items, even though you reverse/ cancel all the documents).

You may also put "Reason for Rejection" at Sales Order Header-level.

Now, Create new Sales Order with Desired Sales Area.

Best Regards,

Amit
