3604231 - Cannot add Plant in Organizational structure as child org unit

• You are trying to define some Plants in your organizational structure as child Organizational Unit of other Organizational Unit.
• However, when you try to create a Plant as child of another Organizational Unit, you are getting an error message "Plant cannot be parent or child org unit". 

SAP Cloud for Customer

1. Go to Work Center "Organizational Management" > Work Center View "Org Structures"
2. Select the query "Organizational Hierarchy"
3. Open a plant and edit the plant 
4. Try to associate an Org unit to a Plant
5. Observe Error message ""Plant cannot be parent or child org unit".

It is not allowed to build hierarchies of plants. Therefore you will get an error message when you try to assign a parent unit. 

You can see the same when creating a new Organizational Unit, and you enter a "Plant" as the parent unit, you will also see the error message "Plant XXX cannot be parent or child org unit". 

This is the expected system behaviour.
