• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message LOG_CMM_PURCHASING001 - Contracts with document conditions do not support header conditions ?

  The SAP error message LOG_CMM_PURCHASING001 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of purchasing contracts in the system. Specifically, it occurs when you attempt to create or modify a purchasing contract that has document conditions (like pricing conditions) at the item level, while also trying to apply header conditions (like overall discounts or surcharges) at the header level. This is not supported in SAP for contracts that have item-level conditions.
  Cause:
  
  Document Conditions: The contract has item-level conditions defined, which means that pricing or other conditions are specified for individual items.
  Header Conditions: You are trying to apply header-level conditions to the contract, which is not allowed when item-level conditions are present.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Remove Header Conditions: If you need to keep the item-level conditions, you should remove any header conditions that you have defined in the contract. This can be done in the contract creation or modification screen by navigating to the conditions tab and deleting the header conditions.
  
  
  Use Only Header Conditions: If you want to apply header conditions, you should ensure that there are no item-level conditions defined in the contract. You can do this by either removing the item-level conditions or creating a new contract without item-level conditions.
  
  
  Review Contract Configuration: Check the configuration of your purchasing contracts in the system to ensure that they align with your business requirements. If you frequently need both header and item-level conditions, consider discussing with your SAP functional consultant to explore alternative configurations or processes.

  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and proceed with your purchasing contract activities in SAP.
