• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KN325 - Do not enter percentage threshold values with this rule basis ?

  The SAP error message KN325 ("Do not enter percentage threshold values with this rule basis") typically occurs in the context of pricing conditions in SAP, particularly when working with condition records for pricing, discounts, or surcharges. This error indicates that there is a mismatch between the type of rule basis you are using and the type of value you are trying to enter.
  Cause:
  The error arises when you attempt to enter a percentage value for a condition record that is not configured to accept percentage thresholds. This can happen if:
  
  The condition type is set up to use absolute values (e.g., fixed amounts) rather than percentages.
  The configuration of the pricing procedure does not allow for percentage-based calculations with the selected rule basis.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Condition Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration of the condition type in transaction code SPRO.
  Navigate to Sales and Distribution > Basic Functions > Pricing > Pricing Control > Define Condition Types.
  Ensure that the condition type you are using is set up to accept percentage values if that is your intention.
  
  
  
  Review Pricing Procedure:
  
  Check the pricing procedure assigned to your sales document type.
  Ensure that the condition type is correctly included in the pricing procedure and that it is configured to handle percentage values if needed.
  
  
  
  Adjust the Value Entered:
  
  If the condition type is indeed set to accept only absolute values, you will need to enter a fixed amount instead of a percentage.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources related to pricing conditions to understand the specific requirements and configurations for the condition types you are working with.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making any changes, test the pricing condition again to ensure that the error is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
