6. Question:
Why SRM Central contract distribution to ECC fails with error "ME029:
Purchasing Organization not assigned to company code", even when passing
plant code?

Answer:
The application on ERP side does indeed need a company code to work when
creating/replicating contracts.

To solve this, you have 2 options:

a) Make use of Business Add-In MEOUT_PROCESS_CUST with method


PROCESS_HEADER. You will also need to apply note 1401871.

b) Make use of Enhancement spot PUR_SPOT_SE_PURCHASINGCONTRACT with


methdot INBOUND_PROCESSING.

With these options you can include a code that will derive the company code
based on your own logic and fill out the data wich will then be used to
create the contract with the right company code.
