Hi Saratvamsi,

You explanation is clear!

Go to MM02, type in your plant - 001, SOrg, Dchan. Go to Tab Sales:Sales org 1, check delivering plant = 001, Save it.

Go to MM02, type in your plant - 002, SOrg, Dchan. Go to Tab Sales:Sales org 1, check delivering plant = 001, Save it.

Then create your Sales order and check the plant which is defaulted.

If it is still 002 (which you don't want). Then check XD02, your customer, Tab Shipping, Delivery plant = ?? (if this is 002, then system shall take from CMR over MMR)

Thanks Mr. Typewriter,

In the example you have given, the basic presumption is that the sales organisations have been created on geographical basis.

However, in our case, it is a bit different. I will try my best to illustrate with an closely related scenario.

We have created material abc for plant 001 and then extended to plant 002, for the same sales organisation and distribution channel as we have only one sales organisation for the entire country. So, material can be supplied by either of the plants. When we are creating the sales order, the default plant should be 001 and not 002 (as per SAP logic). But it is not happening so. It is taking 002 in the sales order. As you said it can be changed, that is how I'm managing the situation know. But, I want to know why it is behaving the correct way.

I'm investigating that, along side the suggestions you have given.

Thank you all for your responses, Please do input any further suggestions.

I will let you know as well if I'm able to find what it is.

Warm regards,
Saratvamsi
