• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message T1320 - Price must be unique for DCS &1, MIC &2, time to mat. &3, pr. type &4 ?

  The SAP error message T1320 indicates that there is a problem with the pricing configuration in the system. Specifically, it states that the price must be unique for the specified parameters: DCS (Distribution Channel), MIC (Material Information Category), time to maturity, and price type. This error typically occurs in the context of pricing conditions in SAP, particularly in the areas of sales and distribution or materials management.
  Cause:
  The error arises when there are multiple pricing records that conflict with each other for the same combination of the specified parameters. This can happen due to:
  
  Duplicate Entries: There are multiple entries in the pricing condition records for the same DCS, MIC, time to maturity, and price type.
  Incorrect Configuration: The pricing procedure may not be set up correctly, leading to conflicts in how prices are determined.
  Data Migration Issues: If data has been migrated from another system, it may have introduced duplicates or inconsistencies.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the T1320 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Pricing Conditions:
  
  Go to the transaction code VK11 (Create Condition) or VK12 (Change Condition) to review the pricing conditions for the relevant DCS, MIC, time to maturity, and price type.

  Review Configuration:
  
  Check the pricing procedure configuration in the transaction code V/08 (Pricing Procedure) to ensure that it is set up correctly and that there are no conflicting settings.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency:
  
  If the issue arose after a data migration, perform a data consistency check to identify and resolve any duplicates or inconsistencies in the pricing records.
