  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SOA_SD053 - Cond. type &1 is a fixed price. You can't enter ConditionQuantity. ?

    The SAP error message SOA_SD053 indicates that you are trying to enter a condition quantity for a condition type that is defined as a fixed price. In SAP, fixed price condition types do not allow for the entry of a condition quantity because the price is fixed and does not vary based on the quantity of goods or services.

    Cause:

    The error occurs when:

    • You attempt to enter a condition quantity for a condition type that is set up as a fixed price in the pricing procedure.
    • The configuration of the condition type does not allow for quantity-based pricing.

    Solution:

    To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:

    1. Check Condition Type Configuration:

      • Go to the transaction code V/06 (for condition types) and check the configuration of the condition type that is causing the error.
      • Ensure that the condition type is indeed set as a fixed price. If it is, you should not be entering a condition quantity.
    2. Remove Condition Quantity:

      • If you are entering a condition quantity in the pricing document (e.g., sales order, quotation), remove the quantity entry for the fixed price condition type. The system should automatically calculate the price based on the fixed amount.
    3. Review Pricing Procedure:

      • Check the pricing procedure assigned to the sales document. You can do this in transaction code V/08.
      • Ensure that the condition type is correctly configured in the pricing procedure and that it is intended to be a fixed price.
    4. Consult Documentation:

      • If you are unsure about the configuration or the intended use of the condition type, consult your SAP documentation or reach out to your SAP functional consultant for clarification.
    5. Testing:

      • After making the necessary adjustments, test the sales document again to ensure that the error no longer occurs.

    Related Information:

    • Condition Types: In SAP, condition types are used to define how prices and discounts are calculated in sales documents. They can be configured to be either fixed or variable.
    • Pricing Procedure: The pricing procedure determines the sequence in which condition types are processed and how they interact with each other.
    • SAP Transactions:
      • V/06: Maintain Condition Types
