Symptom
Unable to assign the purchasing organization to plant
Unable to assign the purchasing organization to company code
Environment
- SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
- SAP Central Business Configuration
Reproducing the Issue
- Log on to the project experience in SAP Central Business Configuration.
- Open Organizational Structure
- Open Plant to Purchasing Organization dialog
- The assignment in "Purchasing Organization assigned to Plant" cannot be removed.
Cause
For generic rule, SAP does not have provision to delete any Organizational Structure Entity for an activated SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition system deployed by CBC. Once an organizational unit or assignment is confirmed, it cannot be deleted or unassigned.
Resolution
For SAP Central Business Configuration customers:
- Click on initiate change and select “Organization structure”.
- Navigate to the “Set Up Organizational Structure” app.
- Check carefully for all the Org Unit and the assignment.
- Click on confirm and complete activity.
- Complete the remaining activities in “scope and org phase”.
After confirmed by the above step, you also can use SSCUI to manage Purchase Organization.
SSCUI 103554 - Assign Purchasing Organization to company code

This organization relevant SSCUI is a special case to open for customers. Changes made via this SSCUI will not be synced to setting up Organizational Structure in CBC. You will find the data in table is inconsistent with setting up Organizational Structure in CBC.
