2.1 Creating a sales order

We will now create a sales order in the SD module of the SAP system using transaction VA01. To do this, enter a sales document type and a sales area and confirm your entries. In SD, a sales area always consists of three organizational characteristics: the sales organization, distribution channel, and division. In our example system, we use sales document type (Order Type field) TA and sales organization ET15, distribution channel 01, and division 00 (see Figure 2.1).
