• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CRM_TAX_TTE221 - Condition type &1 for formula &2 must not be group condition type ?

  The SAP error message CRM_TAX_TTE221 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of a condition type in the context of tax calculations within the SAP CRM system. Specifically, the error states that the condition type specified (represented by &1) for the formula (represented by &2) must not be a group condition type.
  Cause:
  
  Group Condition Type: The condition type you are trying to use is defined as a group condition type. Group condition types are used to aggregate values across multiple items in a document, which is not compatible with the formula you are trying to apply.
  Formula Configuration: The formula you are using may require a specific type of condition that does not support group conditions. This can happen if the formula is designed to work with item-level conditions only.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a misconfiguration in the pricing procedure or the condition records that leads to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Condition Type: Review the condition type configuration in the SAP system. Ensure that the condition type you are using is not set as a group condition type if it is intended to be used in a formula that requires item-level conditions.
  
  You can check this in the SAP customizing transaction (SPRO) under:
  
  Sales and Distribution > Basic Functions > Pricing > Condition Types.
  
  
  
  
  Modify Formula: If the formula requires a non-group condition type, consider modifying the formula to use a different condition type that is not defined as a group condition.
  Adjust Pricing Procedure: If necessary, adjust the pricing procedure to ensure that the correct condition types are being used in the appropriate contexts.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP functional consultant to understand the implications of using group condition types and how they interact with formulas.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Condition Types: In SAP, condition types are used to define how prices, discounts, and taxes are calculated. They can be configured to be either item-level or group-level.
  Formulas: Formulas in SAP pricing can be used to calculate values based on various conditions. They can reference multiple condition types and may have specific requirements regarding the types of conditions they can work with.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance on configuring condition types and formulas.
  
  If the issue persists after checking the above points, it may be beneficial to engage with SAP support or a consultant who specializes in SAP CRM and pricing configuration.
