  Causes of Error V3073
  
  
  Condition Type Restrictions: The condition type you are trying to copy may have specific settings that prevent it from being copied. For example, it may be set to not allow copying from certain document types or may have specific prerequisites that are not met.
  
  
  Document Type Compatibility: The source and target documents may not be compatible for copying conditions. For instance, copying conditions from a sales order to a delivery may not be allowed if the condition types are not defined for that scenario.
  
  
  Condition Records: The condition records for the specific condition type may not exist or may not be valid for the target document.
  
  
  Custom Logic: There may be custom logic implemented in the system (user exits, BAdIs) that restricts the copying of certain conditions based on specific criteria.
