• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RECETM247 - &1, &2: Shares are not allowed for reference conditions ?

  The SAP error message RECETM247 typically indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of reference conditions in the context of condition records, particularly when dealing with pricing or discounts in SAP's pricing module (often related to SD - Sales and Distribution).
  Cause:
  The error message "Shares are not allowed for reference conditions" suggests that the system is trying to process a condition record that includes a reference condition type that does not support sharing. This can occur in scenarios where:
  
  Condition Type Configuration: The condition type being used is not set up to allow for shared conditions. This can happen if the condition type is configured incorrectly in the pricing procedure.
  Reference Condition: The reference condition itself may not be compatible with the current pricing scenario or may not be allowed to be shared among different condition records.
  Master Data Issues: There may be issues with the master data (like customer or material master) that are causing the reference condition to be invalid.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Condition Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the condition type configuration in SPRO (Transaction code: SPRO).

  Review Pricing Procedure:
  
  Check the pricing procedure assigned to the sales document type.
  Ensure that the reference conditions are correctly defined and that they are allowed in the context of the pricing procedure.
