Hi,

The only thing that I can think off is the number range that you might have given is Extenal number range.

Or if you are creating it thro' XD01 (VD01), then check the partner determination. Also check for the number ranges...

Thanks

Karthick V ,

When you create a Customer either in XD01 or VD01 Care should be taken while entering the "sales area" and the "customer" (Domestic customer or Export Customer or one time customer) again within this there is no. ranges which will be classified either Internal or External.

So care should be taken when you create a customer.

1. Check In IMG --> Enterprise structure -->Assignement --> SD --> Set up sales Area, whether you have created sales area (Check other assignements too. within Sales and Distribution). Generally check your Assignment sequence with reference to SD Process.

2. Check in OBD2 What Account groups have been used (you maintain different account groups this where you classify customer)

3. Check Assign no ranges to customer Account Groups

4. Check whether you have maintained common Distribution Channels and Common Divisions.

Dear Karthick,

This is due to not maintaining the common distribution channels and common division settings so please maintain these settings for the respective Sales organisation,Distribution channel and Division through VOR1 and VOR2 transaction.

I hope this will help you,
