• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AJ585 - Step &1 has no gross group, but the gross line field is selected ?

  The SAP error message AJ585 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of a step in a process (often related to pricing or cost calculation) where a gross group is expected but not defined. This typically occurs in the context of pricing procedures or cost planning in SAP.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Gross Group: The specific step in the pricing procedure or cost calculation does not have a gross group assigned to it. This means that the system is trying to process a line item that requires a gross group, but none is defined.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check Pricing Procedure:
  
  Go to the transaction code V/08 (for pricing procedures) or OKTZ (for cost planning).

  Review Field Selection:
  
  Check the field selection for the pricing procedure or cost calculation. If the gross line field is selected, ensure that there is a corresponding gross group defined.
