• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FTVV_MESSAGES751 - Position the cursor on a valid condition header ?

  The SAP error message FTVV_MESSAGES751 ("Position the cursor on a valid condition header") typically occurs in the context of pricing conditions in SAP, particularly when working with condition records in transaction codes like VK11, VK12, or VK13. This error indicates that the system expects the user to select a valid condition record or header before proceeding with an action.
  Cause:
  
  Invalid Selection: The cursor is not positioned on a valid condition record or header. This can happen if you try to perform an action (like changing or displaying a condition) without selecting a specific condition.
  No Condition Records: There may be no condition records available for the selected criteria, leading to the inability to select a valid header.
  User Interface Issue: Sometimes, the user interface may not refresh correctly, leading to confusion about which record is selected.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Select a Valid Condition Header:
  
  Ensure that you have selected a valid condition record in the list. Click on the appropriate row in the condition records table to position the cursor correctly.
  
  
  
  Check for Existing Records:
  
  Verify that there are existing condition records for the criteria you are working with. If there are none, you may need to create a new condition record using VK11.
  
  
  
  Refresh the Screen:
  
  If you suspect a UI issue, try refreshing the screen or navigating away and back to the transaction to reset the view.
  
  
  
  Use the Correct Transaction:
  
  Make sure you are using the correct transaction code for the action you want to perform (e.g., VK11 for creating, VK12 for changing, VK13 for displaying).
  
  
  
  Check Authorization:
  
  Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to view or edit condition records. Lack of proper authorization can sometimes lead to unexpected behavior.
