  The SAP error message TN503 "Invalid condition: &1 &2" typically occurs in the context of condition records in pricing, where the system is unable to find a valid condition record for the specified condition type. This error can arise in various scenarios, such as during sales order processing, pricing determination, or when executing certain transactions that involve pricing.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Condition Records: The most common cause is that there are no valid condition records for the specified condition type (e.g., discounts, surcharges) for the combination of key fields (like customer, material, etc.) being processed.

  Pricing Procedure Issues: The pricing procedure assigned to the sales document may not include the necessary condition types or may be incorrectly configured.
