• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message LOG_CMM_PRC004 - Base Parameter/Subparameter not found for Scale record of key &1 &2 ?

  The SAP error message LOG_CMM_PRC004 indicates that there is an issue with a base parameter or subparameter not being found for a scale record associated with a specific key. This error typically arises in the context of condition records or pricing procedures in SAP, particularly in the areas of materials management (MM) or sales and distribution (SD).
  Cause:
  
  Missing Configuration: The base parameter or subparameter that is referenced in the scale record is not defined in the system. This could be due to incorrect or incomplete configuration in the pricing procedure or condition records.
  Incorrect Key: The key specified in the error message (e.g., material number, customer number) may not correspond to any existing records in the database.
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the data, such as missing entries in the condition tables or incorrect settings in the pricing procedure.
  Transport Issues: If the configuration was recently transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), there may have been issues during the transport process that led to missing or incomplete data.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Configuration: Verify that the base parameter and subparameter are correctly defined in the pricing procedure. You can do this by navigating to the relevant configuration settings in SPRO (SAP Project Reference Object).
  
  Path: SPRO > SAP Reference IMG > Sales and Distribution > Basic Functions > Pricing > Pricing Control > Define Pricing Procedures

  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.
  
  
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the pricing procedure to identify where the error is occurring. This may require assistance from a technical consultant.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific error message for additional insights or known issues.
