  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MN315 - Condition(s) set to inactive for price determination ?

    The SAP error message MN315 ("Condition(s) set to inactive for price determination") typically occurs in the context of pricing in sales and distribution (SD) or materials management (MM) modules. This error indicates that one or more pricing conditions that are necessary for determining the price of a material or service have been set to inactive, which prevents the system from calculating the price correctly.

    Causes:

    1. Inactive Condition Records: The most common cause is that the condition records for pricing (like discounts, surcharges, or base prices) have been marked as inactive in the condition maintenance (transaction code: VK11/VK12 for SD or MEK1/MEK2 for MM).
    2. Condition Exclusion: Certain conditions may be excluded from the pricing procedure due to configuration settings.
    3. Pricing Procedure Configuration: The pricing procedure may not be correctly configured to include the necessary conditions.
    4. Master Data Issues: The material master or customer master data may not have the required pricing information or may be incorrectly set up.
