VE216
- Condition value has been taken from preceding document ?The SAP error message VE216 ("Condition value has been taken from preceding document") typically occurs in the context of pricing and conditions in sales documents, such as sales orders or billing documents. This message indicates that the system is using a condition value from a previous document instead of calculating a new one based on the current document's conditions.
Cause: Document Flow: The error often arises when there is a document flow where the current document is referencing a previous document (like a quotation or another sales order) that has already established certain pricing conditions. Condition Records: The pricing conditions may not be set up correctly for the current document, leading the system to default to the values from the preceding document. Pricing Procedure: The pricing procedure defined for the current document may not allow for recalculation of certain conditions, or the conditions may be set to be copied from the preceding document.
