• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CMMFDOR_DRVTV_ORDER224 - Price update only permitted for status 'Pending Transmission' ?

  The SAP error message CMMFDOR_DRVTV_ORDER224 indicates that a price update is being attempted on an order that is not in the correct status. Specifically, the error states that price updates are only permitted for orders that have the status "Pending Transmission." This typically occurs in the context of managing orders in SAP, particularly in modules related to sales and distribution or materials management.
  Cause:
  
  Order Status: The order you are trying to update has a status that does not allow for price changes. This could be due to the order being in a status such as "Completed," "Cancelled," or "In Process."
  Business Logic: The system is designed to prevent price changes once an order has moved beyond the "Pending Transmission" status to ensure data integrity and avoid inconsistencies in pricing.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Order Status: Verify the current status of the order. You can do this by navigating to the order in the SAP system and checking its status in the order details.
  Change Order Status: If the order is in a status that does not allow price updates, you may need to revert the order to a "Pending Transmission" status if business processes allow for it. This may involve cancelling the current order and creating a new one or using specific transaction codes to change the status, depending on your organization's policies.
  Consult with Business Process Owners: If you are unsure about the implications of changing the order status or if it is necessary to update the price, consult with your business process owners or SAP functional team for guidance.
  Use Correct Transaction: Ensure that you are using the correct transaction code for updating prices. Sometimes, specific transactions are designed to handle price updates under certain conditions.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Documentation: Refer to SAP's official documentation for detailed information on order management and status handling.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as VA02 (Change Sales Order) or ME22N (Change Purchase Order) that may be applicable to your situation.
  User Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to change order statuses and update prices in the system.
  Error Logs: Check the system logs for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context about the issue.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to engage your SAP support team or consult with an SAP expert for further troubleshooting.
