  The SAP error message PRC_MESSAGES303 indicates that there is an issue with a header condition in a pricing document that cannot be fixed due to the fixation group specified. This error typically arises in the context of pricing procedures in SAP, particularly when dealing with conditions that are not allowed to be changed or adjusted.
  Cause:
  
  Fixation Group Issue: The fixation group associated with the header condition is set in such a way that it does not allow for changes to be made. This could be due to configuration settings in the pricing procedure or the specific condition type.
  Condition Type Configuration: The condition type may be configured to be fixed, meaning it cannot be altered once set. This is often the case for certain conditions that are critical to pricing integrity.
  Document Status: The document may be in a status that does not allow for changes to be made to the header conditions.
  Missing Authorizations: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to make changes to the pricing conditions.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Fixation Group Settings: Check the configuration of the fixation group in the pricing procedure. Ensure that it is set up correctly and that the conditions you are trying to change are allowed to be modified.
  Adjust Condition Type Settings: If the condition type is set to be fixed, consider whether it needs to be changed to allow for adjustments. This may involve working with your SAP configuration team.
  Check Document Status: Ensure that the document is in a status that allows for changes. If it is locked or in a completed state, you may need to unlock it or create a new document.
  User Authorizations: Verify that the user has the necessary permissions to modify pricing conditions. If not, consult with your SAP security team to adjust the authorizations.
  Consult SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error message or provide additional guidance on how to resolve it.
