• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message M7855 - Access sequence & does not exist (processing not possible) ?

  The SAP error message M7855, which states "Access sequence & does not exist (processing not possible)," typically occurs in the context of material master data, pricing, or other configuration settings where an access sequence is expected but not found. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Missing Access Sequence: The access sequence specified in the configuration does not exist in the system. This could be due to a typo or because the access sequence was never created.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for the pricing procedure, condition types, or other related areas may reference an access sequence that is not defined.
  Transport Issues: If the access sequence was created in a development environment but not transported to the production environment, it may lead to this error.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the defined access sequence.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Access Sequence:
  
  Go to the transaction code V/07 (for pricing) or V/08 (for condition types) to check if the access sequence exists.
  If it does not exist, you may need to create it using the transaction code V/07 or V/08.
  
  
  
  Create or Modify Access Sequence:
  
  If the access sequence is missing, create a new one or modify an existing one to include the necessary conditions.
  Ensure that the access sequence is properly assigned to the relevant condition types.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration settings in the relevant areas (like pricing procedures) to ensure that they reference the correct access sequence.
  Use transaction code SPRO to navigate to the relevant configuration settings.
  
  
  
  Transport Requests:
  
  If the access sequence was created in a different environment, ensure that the transport request containing the access sequence is moved to the target environment.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the access sequence. This can be checked with the help of your SAP security team.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
