  The SAP error message VE015 ("Manual condition / No access made as field is initial") typically occurs in the context of pricing and condition records in SAP. This error indicates that the system is unable to find a valid condition record because a required field is empty or not filled in.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Data: The error usually arises when a required field in the pricing condition record is not filled. This could be due to missing master data or incomplete entries in the pricing procedure.
  Condition Records: The condition records for the pricing procedure may not be maintained properly, leading to the system not being able to access the necessary data.
  Initial Fields: If the system expects certain fields to be populated (like customer, material, or pricing type) and they are left blank, it will trigger this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Condition Records: 
  
  Go to the transaction code VK11 (Create Condition) or VK12 (Change Condition) to check if the relevant condition records exist and are correctly maintained.

  Master Data Verification:
  
  Verify that the master data (like customer master, material master, etc.) is complete and correctly maintained. Ensure that all relevant fields are populated.

  Debugging:
  
  If the issue persists, you may need to debug the pricing logic to identify which field is causing the issue. This can be done by using transaction SE80 or SE37 to analyze the pricing routines.
