  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message V2014 - Use rule with base line date = today's date for period ?

    The SAP error message V2014 ("Use rule with base line date = today's date for period") typically occurs in the context of sales and distribution (SD) when dealing with pricing conditions and the determination of valid pricing records. This error indicates that the system is unable to find a valid pricing condition record for the specified date or period.

    Cause:

    1. Invalid Base Line Date: The error suggests that the pricing condition records are not valid for the base line date being used. This often happens when the pricing conditions are set up with specific validity periods that do not include the current date.
    2. Missing Condition Records: There may be no condition records available for the pricing procedure being used for the transaction.
    3. Incorrect Configuration: The pricing procedure may not be configured correctly, or the condition types may not be set up properly in the pricing procedure.

    Solution:

    1. Check Condition Records:

      • Go to the transaction code VK13 (Display Condition) and check if there are valid condition records for the relevant condition type and the current date.
      • If there are no records, you may need to create them using VK11 (Create Condition).
    2. Review Validity Dates:

      • Ensure that the validity dates of the condition records cover the current date. If they do not, you may need to adjust the validity dates or create new records.
    3. Check Pricing Procedure:

      • Verify that the pricing procedure assigned to the sales document type is correct and that it includes the necessary condition types.
      • You can check the pricing procedure in the configuration settings (transaction code SPRO).
    4. Consult with Configuration Team:

      • If you are not able to resolve the issue, consult with your SAP configuration team to ensure that the pricing setup is correct and that all necessary condition records are in place.
    5. Testing:

      • After making any changes, perform a test transaction to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
