• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GTR_MF050 - Field &1 not a valid condition field because not active ?

  The SAP error message GTR_MF050 indicates that a specific field (denoted as &1) is not a valid condition field because it is not active. This error typically arises in the context of condition records, pricing, or tax calculations within the SAP system, particularly in modules like SAP SD (Sales and Distribution) or SAP MM (Materials Management).
  Cause:
  
  Inactive Condition Field: The field specified in the error message is not active in the condition type configuration. This can happen if the field has been deactivated or if it has not been properly configured in the condition type settings.
  Missing Configuration: The condition type may not have been set up correctly, or the necessary fields may not have been included in the configuration.
  Transport Issues: If the configuration was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), there may have been issues during the transport that caused the field to become inactive.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Condition Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code V/06 (for pricing) or V/07 (for tax) to check the configuration of the relevant condition type.
  Ensure that the field in question is marked as active in the condition type settings.
  
  
  
  Activate the Field:
  
  If the field is inactive, you may need to activate it. This can usually be done in the configuration settings for the condition type.
  Make sure to save and transport the changes if necessary.
  
  
  
  Review Field Status:
  
  Check the field status group assigned to the condition type. Ensure that the field is included in the field status group and is set to be active.
  
  
  
  Check for Transport Issues:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, verify that all necessary objects were included in the transport request and that they were successfully imported into the target system.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific condition type and field to ensure that there are no additional requirements or dependencies.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, perform tests to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the condition records function as expected.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as V/06, V/07, V/08 (for condition records), and SPRO (for configuration).
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to the specific condition type or field.
  User Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to condition types and fields in the SAP system.
