  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VF_PRC_QTYADJUSTMENT006 - Source condition type with calculation type other than &1 not supported ?

    The SAP error message:

    VF_PRC_QTYADJUSTMENT006: Source condition type with calculation type other than &1 not supported


    Cause:

    This error occurs during billing document pricing when a source condition type is assigned to a condition record, but the calculation type of that source condition type is not the expected one.

    Specifically, the system expects the source condition type to have a particular calculation type (usually 'B' for quantity-based calculation), but the condition type used has a different calculation type. This mismatch causes the pricing procedure to fail because the system cannot process the source condition type correctly.


    Explanation:

    • In SAP SD pricing, condition types have a calculation type that defines how the condition value is calculated (e.g., percentage, fixed amount, quantity-based).
    • Some source condition types used in quantity adjustment or similar pricing scenarios must have a specific calculation type.
    • If the source condition type's calculation type is not as expected, the system throws this error.

    Solution:

    1. Check the calculation type of the source condition type:

      • Go to transaction V/06 (Condition Types).
      • Find the source condition type mentioned in the error.
      • Check the Calculation Type field.
    2. Verify the expected calculation type:

      • The error message will show the expected calculation type (e.g., 'B').
      • Ensure the source condition type has this calculation type.
    3. Adjust the condition type if necessary:

      • If the calculation type is incorrect, you may need to:
        • Change the calculation type of the source condition type to the expected one (if business process allows).
        • Or use a different source condition type with the correct calculation type.
    4. Check the pricing procedure:

      • Ensure that the source condition type is correctly assigned in the pricing procedure.
      • Verify that the condition records and access sequences are consistent.
    5. Test the billing document creation again after making corrections.

      • VF01 - Create Billing Document (where error occurs)
    • SAP Notes:
      • Check SAP OSS notes related to pricing and condition types if the problem persists.
    • Calculation Types:
      • Common calculation types include:
        • A = Percentage on price
        • B = Quantity-based calculation
        • C = Fixed amount
        • etc.
    • This error is common when custom condition types are created or modified without aligning calculation types properly.

    Summary:

    The error VF_PRC_QTYADJUSTMENT006 indicates a mismatch between the expected calculation type of a source condition type and the actual calculation type assigned. Correcting the calculation type of the source condition type or using the correct condition type resolves the issue.
