  The SAP error message FDT_CHANGE_INFO422 indicates that there has been a change in the condition at a specific position in a document or transaction. This error typically arises in the context of financial documents, such as invoices or purchase orders, where conditions (like pricing, discounts, or taxes) are evaluated.
  Cause:
  
  
  Changes in Conditions: The error usually occurs when there is a modification in the pricing conditions after the document has been created or processed. This could be due to:
  
  Manual changes made to the pricing conditions.
  Changes in master data (like customer or vendor pricing).
  Updates in condition records that affect the current transaction.
  
  
  
  Document Status: The document may be in a status that does not allow for certain changes, or the system may have detected inconsistencies due to the changes made.
  
  
  Custom Logic: If there are custom enhancements or user exits that modify the behavior of condition handling, they might lead to this error if not properly managed.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Changes: Check the changes made to the conditions. You can do this by:
  
  Reviewing the change logs for the document.
  Checking the condition records in the relevant transaction (e.g., VK13 for pricing conditions).

  Using the "Recalculate" function in the transaction.
  Saving the document again to trigger a recalculation.
  
  
  
  Check Document Status: Ensure that the document is in a status that allows for changes. If it is locked or in a completed status, you may need to reverse or adjust the document.
