Most popular question on SAP Listing - "I configured the Listing functionality, but I can still create sales order for any customer. What is the problem?"

This is a very common problem most consultants face after configuring the listing functionality in SAP, where you have successfully configured, but sales order creation is possible for any material/customer combination.

Reason:

If you don’t create a listing condition record (VB01) for a customer; system assumes all materials are listed for all customers; therefore sales order creation is possible for any customer/material.

But as soon as you listed one material, system assumes, only listed materials are allowed to sell. Therefore from that point onwards you will not be able to create a sales order without having a listing condition record (VB01).

Solution:

Create a listing condition record (VB01) for at least one material using VB01.
