However, your expectation is to make the Org Unit XYZ made available for the selection.

Cause

Reason for this behaviour could be as follows:

  • Correct Definitions & Functions are not assigned to the Org Unit: XYZ 
  • Inconsistencies in the Org Structure or Unit

Resolution

To get the Org Unit XYZ available for selection under Account Assignment type for the cost center, please assign the respective Definitions & Functions.

In this case request you to assign the

Definitions as Cost Center

 Under Functions assign Customer Invoice & Supplier Invoicing.
