The SAP error message
/ACCGO/DGR138 Plant required in source and destination materials goods movement
typically occurs during a goods movement transaction when the system requires a plant to be specified for both the source and destination materials, but it is missing.Cause:
- Missing Plant Information: The error indicates that either the source material or the destination material (or both) does not have an associated plant defined in the system.
- Configuration Issues: The configuration for the materials may not be set up correctly, or the materials may not be assigned to a plant.
- Transaction Type: The type of goods movement being performed may require plant information that is not being provided.

- If the plant is missing, you can assign it using transaction code
MM01
(to create a new material) orMM02
(to change an existing material). Make sure to include the plant data.Review Goods Movement Transaction:
- Ensure that the goods movement transaction you are trying to perform is correctly set up to include plant information. This may involve checking the transaction type and ensuring that all required fields are filled out.
Check Configuration:
- If you have access to configuration settings, check the settings in the relevant modules (like MM or WM) to ensure that the system is configured to require plant information for the type of goods movement you are performing.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
