• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FICO1352 - Condition type &1: Delete reference condition type. ?

  The SAP error message FICO1352, which states "Condition type &1: Delete reference condition type," typically occurs in the context of pricing or condition records in the SAP FICO (Financial Accounting and Controlling) module. This error indicates that there is an issue with a condition type that is set as a reference for another condition type, and it cannot be deleted because it is still being referenced.
  Cause:
  
  Reference Condition Type: The condition type you are trying to delete is being used as a reference for other condition types. In SAP, condition types can be linked, and if one is referenced by another, it cannot be deleted until the reference is removed.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the pricing procedure or condition records that are preventing the deletion.
  Data Integrity: The system is designed to maintain data integrity, and deleting a condition type that is still in use could lead to inconsistencies.
  
  Solution:
  
  Identify References: Check which condition types are referencing the condition type you want to delete. You can do this by navigating to the condition type configuration in the SAP system (Transaction code: SPRO) and reviewing the settings.
  Remove References: If you find that the condition type is being referenced, you will need to remove those references before you can delete the condition type. This may involve changing the pricing procedure or adjusting condition records.
  Check Condition Records: Ensure that there are no active condition records that are using the condition type. You can check this using transaction codes like VK13 (Display Condition) to see if any records exist.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP Basis or FICO consultant for specific guidance on your system's configuration.
  Testing: After making the necessary changes, test the deletion process in a development or test environment before applying it to production.
