• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPCND/MAINTENANCE049 - Inconsistency between condition record and EVL scale table ?

  The SAP error message /SAPCND/MAINTENANCE049 indicates an inconsistency between a condition record and the EVL (Evaluation) scale table. This typically occurs in the context of pricing conditions in SAP, where the system expects certain data to be consistent across different tables, but finds discrepancies.
  Cause:
  
  Data Inconsistency: The condition record may have been modified or deleted, but the corresponding entries in the EVL scale table were not updated accordingly.
  Transport Issues: If changes were transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), inconsistencies may arise if the transport did not include all necessary objects.
  Manual Changes: Manual changes to condition records or scale tables without proper updates can lead to inconsistencies.
  Custom Developments: Custom programs or enhancements that manipulate condition records or scales may inadvertently create inconsistencies.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Condition Records: Use transaction VK13 (Display Condition) to check the condition records for the relevant pricing condition. Ensure that the records are complete and correctly maintained.
  Check EVL Table: Use transaction SE16 or SE11 to view the EVL scale table (usually /SAPCND/EVL) and verify that the entries correspond correctly to the condition records.
  Recreate Condition Records: If inconsistencies are found, consider deleting and recreating the condition records to ensure they are correctly linked to the EVL scale.
  Consistency Check: Use transaction SDBA (Database Utility) or SE14 (Database Utility) to perform a consistency check on the database tables involved.
  Transport Management: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs and ensure that all necessary objects were included in the transport request.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide guidance on resolving inconsistencies.
