  SAP Error Message:
  VF_PRC_QTYADJUSTMENT005
  
  Text: Reference to a condition of calculation type &1 is not supported
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs during billing document processing (e.g., VF01, VF02) when the system encounters a condition type that is assigned a calculation type which is not supported for quantity adjustment in the pricing procedure.
  
  The error typically arises when a condition type used in the pricing procedure has a calculation type that the billing document processing logic does not support for quantity adjustments.
  For example, the condition type might be set to a calculation type like percentage, fixed amount, or others that are incompatible with quantity adjustment logic.
  The system expects condition types involved in quantity adjustments to have specific calculation types (e.g., amount per unit, fixed amount per quantity, etc.).
  This can happen if a custom condition type is created or modified incorrectly or if standard condition types are used in an unsupported way.
  
  
  Explanation of Key Terms:
  
  Condition Type: Defines the pricing element (e.g., discount, surcharge, freight).
  Calculation Type: Defines how the condition value is calculated (e.g., percentage, fixed amount, per unit).
  Quantity Adjustment: Adjusting the condition value based on changes in quantity during billing.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Condition Type Calculation Type:
  
  Go to transaction V/06 (Maintain Condition Types).
  Find the condition type mentioned in the error message (the placeholder &1 will be replaced by the actual condition type in the error).
  Check the Calculation Type field.
  
  
  
  Verify Compatibility:
  
  Ensure the calculation type assigned to the condition type is supported for quantity adjustment in billing.
  Common supported calculation types for quantity adjustment are:
  
  1 (Percentage)
  2 (Fixed amount)
  3 (Amount per unit)
  4 (Fixed amount per quantity)
  
  
  If the calculation type is not supported, change it to a supported one.
  
  
  
  Adjust Pricing Procedure:
  
  If the condition type is custom and not suitable for quantity adjustment, consider removing it from the pricing procedure or adjusting its usage.
  
  
  
  Check OSS Notes:
  
  Sometimes SAP releases notes related to specific calculation types and billing errors. Search for OSS notes related to this error message or condition type.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, test the billing document creation again to ensure the error is resolved.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  This error is specific to the billing process and pricing procedure configuration.
  It is important to understand the business requirement for the condition type and ensure the calculation type aligns with SAP's supported types for billing quantity adjustments.
  If unsure, consult with SAP SD (Sales and Distribution) functional consultant or SAP support.
