UNABLE TO TAKE THE REFERENCE DOC. OF DIFFERENT SALES AREA AT QUOTATION STA

Question

Hi,
When i am copying from one sales area to another sales area at Quotation Stage . Iam getting the following Error as below :
"Distribution channels deviate from each other. 13 and/or 11 (reference)"
Message no. V2011
Process : First i have created a Quotation of which Document Type is : ZFQT and Sales Area : 1000/11/11
when i save 200120 is the document no which is Domestic Sale Document.
But my client requirement is when i take the reference of above Quotation No : 200120 to Create a new Quotation which consists of Document Type ZDFQ which is a Deemed Sale Document and with Sales Area 1000/13/11 .
Unable to take the reference , i have already made the Copy Controls from ZFQT (SOURCE DOC) TO ZDFQ(TARGET DOC) AND  i have also maintained the SALES AREA OF  :
1000/11/11/ZDFQ (DEEMED ORDER TYPE) AND
1000/13/11/ZFQT(DOMESTIC ORDER TYPE)
1000 : SALES ORGANIZATION
11  : DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL FOR DOMESTIC
13  : DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL FOR DEEMED.
11 : DIVISION.
DO THE NEEDFUL.
REGARDS,
TILAK.

Hi Lakshmipathi,
A very helpful answer, given by you.But in our case if at all i am trying to change it into warning message it is effecting another sales organization. In one server Client is maintaining two company codes data. So it might effect the other.
We have developed a new routine named 901 by copying the standard 002 and maintained in the copy controls(VTAA) for that relevant Document types. We are able to take the reference by doing this. But the problem is when i am taking the reference of other sales area and document type , Document is changing but sales area is coming of the reference document.
Example :
1000 : SO
11  & 13 : Dist Ch(Domestic) and 12 for Deemed
11 : Division common
ZFQT  : DOMESTIC QUOTATION TYPE
ZDQT : DEEMED QUOTATION TYPE.
I have created a Quotation by taking ZDQT Doc type and Sales Area : 1000/13/11 and Customer : 11000000(Same Customer for Dom and Deemed sales extended). 20000010(Documnet no)
When i am taking the reference of 200000010 and creating a New Quotation  of  Doc type (ZFQT) and Sales Area : 1000/11/11 and Copy.
Then Item and customer details able to copy and when i look into Header Sales Area is not changing , it is showing the reference sales area 1000/13/11. Butn't Sales area : 1000/11/11.
*Why the Client is asking such type of reference is ?We have implemented for Cable Manufacturing company and in order to create a Item in Order it requires lot of Configuration/Charateristics as VC (Variant Configuration)is involved and it takes minimum 3-4 mins to create an item.
So is there any alternative solution for this.
