• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message J3484 - More than one condition item with the same key fields exists ?

  The SAP error message J3484, which states "More than one condition item with the same key fields exists," typically occurs in the context of pricing conditions in sales documents, purchase orders, or other transactions where condition records are maintained. This error indicates that the system has found multiple condition records that match the same key fields, which can lead to ambiguity in determining which condition should be applied.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Condition Records: The most common cause of this error is the existence of duplicate condition records in the pricing procedure. This can happen if multiple records have been created for the same combination of key fields (e.g., material, customer, pricing type).
  Incorrect Configuration: The pricing procedure may not be configured correctly, leading to multiple conditions being applicable for the same transaction.
  Data Entry Errors: Manual entry errors during the creation of condition records can lead to duplicates.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Condition Records:
  
  Use transaction code VK13 (Display Condition) to check the condition records for the relevant condition type.
  Look for duplicates based on the key fields (e.g., material, customer, etc.) and identify the records that are causing the conflict.
  
  
  
  Delete or Adjust Duplicates:
  
  If duplicates are found, you can either delete the unnecessary records or adjust them to ensure that only one valid record exists for the combination of key fields.
  Use transaction code VK12 (Change Condition) to modify or delete the condition records.
  
  
  
  Review Pricing Procedure:
  
  Ensure that the pricing procedure is set up correctly and that it allows for the intended conditions without conflicts.
  Check the condition types and their access sequences to ensure they are configured to avoid overlaps.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific guidance on handling condition records and pricing procedures.
  
  
  
  Testing:
