• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PRC_PRI209 - Pricing procedure &1 is empty (does not contain any lines) ?

  The SAP error message PRC_PRI209 indicates that the pricing procedure specified in the system is empty, meaning it does not contain any pricing conditions or lines. This can occur in various scenarios, particularly in the context of sales and distribution (SD) or purchasing processes.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Configuration: The pricing procedure may not have been properly configured in the system. This could be due to missing condition types or incorrect assignment of the pricing procedure to the relevant document type or sales area.
  Missing Condition Records: The pricing procedure might be assigned, but there are no condition records defined for the relevant pricing conditions.
  Transport Issues: If the pricing procedure was recently transported from another system (e.g., from development to production), it may not have been transported correctly, leading to an empty pricing procedure.
  Custom Development: If there are custom developments or modifications in the pricing logic, they might have inadvertently led to the pricing procedure being empty.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Pricing Procedure Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code V/08 (for sales) or V/06 (for purchasing) to check the configuration of the pricing procedure.
  Ensure that the pricing procedure is correctly defined and contains the necessary condition types.
  
  
  
  Assign Pricing Procedure:
  
  Ensure that the pricing procedure is assigned to the relevant sales area or purchasing organization. This can be checked in the configuration settings under SPRO -> Sales and Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Pricing -> Pricing Control.
  
  
  
  Create Condition Records:
  
  If the pricing procedure is correctly configured but lacks condition records, create the necessary condition records using transaction codes like VK11 (for sales) or VK31 (for purchasing).
  
  
  
  Transport Check:
  
  If the pricing procedure was recently transported, check the transport logs to ensure that all necessary objects were included in the transport request.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP functional team to ensure that the pricing procedure is set up according to business requirements.
