• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VF_PRC_QTYADJUSTMENT002 - Scale basis &1 is not supported for calculation type &2 ?

  The SAP error message:
  VF_PRC_QTYADJUSTMENT002 Scale basis &1 is not supported for calculation type &2
  Meaning / Cause:
  This error occurs during billing document processing (transaction VF01, VF02, or VF03) when the system tries to perform a quantity-based price adjustment but encounters an unsupported combination of Scale Basis and Calculation Type in the pricing procedure.
  
  Scale Basis refers to the basis on which the scale (price adjustment) is applied, such as quantity, value, or weight.
  Calculation Type refers to the method used to calculate the price adjustment (e.g., percentage, fixed amount, or quantity-based).
  
  The error indicates that the system does not support the specified scale basis for the given calculation type in the pricing procedure configuration.
  Typical Causes:
  
  
  Incorrect Pricing Procedure Configuration:
  
  The pricing procedure includes a condition type with a calculation type that does not support the scale basis defined for quantity adjustments.
  
  
  Incompatible Condition Type Settings:
  
  The condition type used for quantity adjustment is not set up correctly in the condition master data or pricing procedure.
  
  
  Custom or Standard Condition Types Misconfiguration:
  
  Custom condition types or standard ones may have been assigned incompatible scale basis or calculation types.
  
  
  Where to Check / Solution:
  
  
  Check the Pricing Procedure:
  
  Go to transaction V/08 (Maintain Pricing Procedures).
  Identify the condition type causing the issue.
  Check the Calculation Type assigned to the condition type.
  
  
  
  Check Condition Type Settings:
  
  Use transaction V/06 (Condition Types).
  Select the condition type and check the Calculation Type field.
  Verify if the calculation type supports the scale basis used.
  
  
  
  Check Scale Basis Settings:
  
  In the pricing procedure, check the scale basis assigned to the condition type.
  The scale basis is usually defined in the condition type or in the pricing procedure step.
  
  
  
  Adjust Configuration:
  
  If the scale basis is not supported for the calculation type, either:
  
  Change the scale basis to one supported by the calculation type.
  Or change the calculation type to one that supports the scale basis.
  
  
  
  
  
  Refer to SAP Notes / Documentation:
  
  SAP Note 108011 or related notes may provide guidance on supported scale basis and calculation type combinations.
  Consult SAP Help Portal for pricing procedure and condition type configuration details.
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Calculation Types examples:
  
  1 = Percentage
  2 = Fixed amount
  3 = Quantity-based
  
  
  Scale Basis examples:
  
  1 = Quantity
  2 = Value
  3 = Weight
  
  
  
  The exact values depend on your SAP system and configuration.
  Summary:
  
  The error means the system cannot apply the quantity adjustment because the scale basis and calculation type combination is invalid.
  Review and correct the pricing procedure and condition type configuration to ensure compatible scale basis and calculation type.
  Test the billing document creation after correction.
  
  
  If you provide the exact values for &1 (scale basis) and &2 (calculation type) from the error message, I can help you identify the exact mismatch.
