• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 63558 - Max.amount only possible for % amounts ?

  The SAP error message 63558, which states "Max.amount only possible for % amounts," typically occurs in the context of financial transactions, particularly when dealing with payment terms, discounts, or pricing conditions in SAP.
  Cause:
  This error usually arises when there is an attempt to set a maximum amount for a condition type that is not defined as a percentage. In SAP, certain condition types (like discounts) can be defined with a maximum limit, but this limit is only applicable when the condition is expressed as a percentage. If you try to apply a maximum amount to a condition that is defined as a fixed amount, SAP will throw this error.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Condition Type: Verify the condition type you are using. Ensure that it is set up to allow a maximum amount only if it is a percentage-based condition.
  
  
  Adjust Configuration: If you need to apply a maximum amount to a fixed amount condition, you may need to adjust the configuration of the condition type in the SAP system. This may involve:
  
  Changing the condition type to a percentage-based type if applicable.
  Modifying the pricing procedure to accommodate the desired behavior.
  
  
  
  Review Pricing Procedure: Check the pricing procedure assigned to the relevant sales document or purchasing document. Ensure that the condition types are correctly configured and that the maximum amount settings align with the intended use.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for detailed information on condition types and their configurations.
  
  
  Testing: After making changes, perform tests to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the pricing behaves as expected.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like VK11 (Create Condition), VK12 (Change Condition), or V/06 (Maintain Pricing Procedure) to review and modify condition types and pricing procedures.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address specific issues related to this error message.
  User Exits and BAdIs: In some cases, custom logic implemented through user exits or BAdIs may affect how conditions are processed. Review any custom code that might be influencing the behavior.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with an SAP functional consultant or your organization's SAP support team for further assistance.
