• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 06203 - Order value & & below minimum order value ?

  The SAP error message "06203 Order value & & below minimum order value" typically occurs when a sales order or purchase order is created with a total value that is below the minimum order value defined in the system. This is a validation check to ensure that orders meet certain financial thresholds before they can be processed.
  Cause:
  
  Minimum Order Value Setting: The system has a minimum order value set for specific materials, customers, or vendors. If the total value of the order (including all line items) is less than this threshold, the error will be triggered.
  Configuration Issues: The minimum order value may be incorrectly configured or not aligned with business requirements.
  Currency Issues: The order value may be calculated in a different currency than what the minimum order value is set in, leading to discrepancies.
  Discounts or Promotions: If discounts are applied to the order, they may reduce the order value below the minimum threshold.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Minimum Order Value Settings:
  
  Check the configuration for minimum order values in the relevant customizing settings (transaction code SPRO).
  Navigate to: Sales and Distribution > Sales > Sales Documents > Define Minimum Order Value or similar paths depending on your module (SD, MM, etc.).
  
  
  
  Adjust the Order Value:
  
  Increase the quantity or price of the items in the order to meet or exceed the minimum order value.
  If applicable, remove any discounts that may be affecting the total order value.
  
  
  
  Check Currency Settings:
  
  Ensure that the currency used in the order matches the currency in which the minimum order value is defined.
  If necessary, convert the order value to the correct currency to verify compliance with the minimum order value.
  
  
  
  Consult with Business Users:
  
  Discuss with relevant stakeholders (sales, procurement) to determine if the minimum order value needs to be adjusted based on current business practices.
  
  
  
  Error Handling:
  
  If the minimum order value is deemed too restrictive, consider adjusting it in the system to better align with business needs.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as VA01 (Create Sales Order), ME21N (Create Purchase Order), and SPRO (Customizing).
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation or help files for more details on configuring minimum order values.
  User Exits or BAdIs: If custom logic is required, consider implementing user exits or Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) to handle specific business scenarios.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and ensure that orders comply with the defined minimum order value requirements.
