• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RECD502 - Condition does not exist for item (&1 - &2) ?

  The SAP error message RECD502 ("Condition does not exist for item (&1 - &2)") typically occurs in the context of pricing and conditions in SAP, particularly when dealing with sales documents, purchase orders, or billing documents. This error indicates that the system is unable to find a valid pricing condition for the specified item.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Condition Records: The most common cause is that there are no condition records defined for the pricing condition type that is being referenced in the document.
  Incorrect Condition Type: The condition type may not be correctly set up or may not be applicable for the specific item or document type.
  Data Inconsistencies: There may be inconsistencies in the master data (like customer or material master) that prevent the condition from being applied.
  Pricing Procedure Issues: The pricing procedure assigned to the document may not include the necessary condition types.
  Validity Period: The condition records may not be valid for the date of the transaction, either because they are not active or have expired.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Condition Records:
  
  Go to the transaction code VK13 (Display Condition) to check if the condition records exist for the relevant condition type and the specific item.
  If they do not exist, you may need to create them using VK11 (Create Condition).
  
  
  
  Review Pricing Procedure:
  
  Ensure that the pricing procedure assigned to the document type includes the necessary condition types. You can check this in the configuration settings under SPRO -> Sales and Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Pricing -> Pricing Control.
  
  
  
  Validate Master Data:
  
  Check the customer and material master data to ensure that they are correctly set up and that there are no missing or incorrect entries that could affect pricing.
  
  
  
  Check Validity Dates:
  
  Ensure that the condition records are valid for the date of the transaction. If they are not, you may need to adjust the validity dates or create new records.
  
  
  
  Debugging:
  
  If the issue persists, you may need to debug the pricing procedure to see how the conditions are being evaluated. This can help identify where the breakdown is occurring.
