    The SAP error message SD_EXPRESSION014 indicates that there is an issue with the data types of operands in an arithmetic expression within the Sales and Distribution (SD) module. This error typically arises when the system encounters an arithmetic operation where the data types of the operands are not defined or are incompatible.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Data Types: The operands involved in the arithmetic expression do not have defined data types, which can happen if the fields are not properly initialized or if there is a misconfiguration in the data model.
    2. Incompatible Data Types: The operands may be of different or incompatible data types (e.g., trying to perform arithmetic on a string and a number).
    3. Custom Code Issues: If there is custom code (e.g., user exits, BAdIs, or custom programs) that manipulates data in the SD module, it may not handle data types correctly.
    4. Configuration Errors: Incorrect configuration in the pricing procedure or condition types can lead to this error.

    Solution:

    1. Check Data Types: Review the data types of the operands involved in the arithmetic expression. Ensure that they are compatible and correctly defined.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may want to check transaction codes like VK11, VK31, or V/06 for condition records and pricing procedures.
    • ABAP Development: If you have access to ABAP development tools, you can analyze the code where the error occurs to identify the specific arithmetic expression causing the issue.
    • SAP Community: Consider reaching out to the SAP Community forums or consulting with SAP support for additional insights or similar cases.
