This error typically arises in the context of pricing procedures in SAP, particularly in the Oil and Gas industry or similar sectors where pricing conditions are critical.

  Review Configuration: Go to the configuration settings in SAP (Transaction SPRO) and review the settings for pricing conditions. Ensure that the conditions are set up correctly and that the price limit is only applied to the correct types.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for detailed information on pricing conditions and their configurations. This can provide insights into how to properly set up your pricing procedures.
  
  
  Testing: After making changes, conduct tests to ensure that the pricing calculations work as expected without triggering the error.
