Symptom
You are trying to assign org unit to employee when creating new employee in system, but facing error "Organizational unit must be or must be assigned to a reporting line unit".
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to Business Partner work center.
- Create new employee via clicking the New button.
- Enter the First Name and Last Name.
- Enter the org unit ID.
- When saving, the error is shown: "Organizational unit must be or must be assigned to a reporting line unit".
Cause
The Self-Service Procurement check under the Purchase Order is scoped in Business Configuration. As the reporting line unit is mandatory for self-service procurement, hence for every employee reporting line unit is mandatory in order to procure the self-service requirement.
Resolution
You can remove the scoping of Self-Service Procurement check under the Purchase Order or assign reporting line unit to the required org units.
