• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VF_PRC_QTYADJUSTMENT003 - Condition category &1 is not supported for calculation type &2 ?

  The SAP error message:
  VF_PRC_QTYADJUSTMENT003 Condition category &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 apply a condition with a certain condition category that is not compatible with the calculation type assigned to it.
  
  Condition category: Defines the type of condition (e.g., discount, surcharge, freight, tax).
  Calculation type: Defines how the condition value is calculated (e.g., percentage, fixed amount, quantity-based).
  
  The error indicates that the condition category assigned to a condition record is not supported by the calculation type configured for that condition. This mismatch prevents the system from correctly calculating the condition value.
  Common scenarios:
  
  A condition type is assigned a calculation type that does not support quantity adjustments or certain condition categories.
  Custom or standard condition types have been modified or incorrectly configured.
  The pricing procedure includes condition types with incompatible calculation types.
  
  Where it happens:
  
  During billing document creation or pricing procedure execution.
  When the system tries to calculate condition values based on pricing procedure and condition records.
  
  
  How to analyze and solve:
  
  
  Check the condition type configuration:
  
  Go to transaction V/06 (Define Condition Types).
  Find the condition type causing the error.
  Check the Calculation Type assigned to it.
  Verify if the calculation type supports the condition category.
  
  
  
  Check the calculation type configuration:
  
  Go to transaction V/08 (Define Calculation Types).
  Look up the calculation type &2 mentioned in the error.
  Check the allowed condition categories for this calculation type.
  If the calculation type does not support the condition category &1, you need to either:
  
  Change the calculation type to one that supports the condition category.
  Or change the condition category to one supported by the calculation type.
  
  
  
  
  
  Check the pricing procedure:
  
  Go to transaction V/08 or V/07 to check the pricing procedure.
  Verify the condition types and their calculation types.
  Ensure consistency between condition category and calculation type.
  
  
  
  Adjust the condition record or pricing procedure:
  
  If a custom condition type is used, correct its calculation type or condition category.
  If standard SAP condition types are used, check if any customizations or user exits have changed the behavior.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After changes, test billing document creation again.
  Ensure the error no longer appears.
