  SAP Error Message: VH156 - Price document & is not available
  
  1. Cause
  The error message VH156 typically occurs in the SAP Vehicle Management System (VMS) or related modules when the system tries to access a price document (pricing condition record or pricing document) that does not exist or is not available for the given criteria.
  More specifically:
  
  The system is attempting to retrieve a pricing document (e.g., a price list, condition record, or pricing agreement) for a vehicle or service.
  The required price document is missing, not maintained, or not valid for the current context (e.g., date, customer, material).
  The pricing procedure or condition type expected to be used is not properly configured or linked.
  The document number or reference used to fetch the price document is incorrect or empty.
  
  
  2. Solution
  To resolve the VH156 error, follow these steps:
  a) Check Pricing Condition Records
  
  Verify that the relevant pricing condition records exist in transaction VK11/VK12/VK13.
  Ensure that the price document (condition record) is maintained for the correct combination of:
  
  Customer
  Material (vehicle or service)
  Validity dates
  Sales organization, distribution channel, division
  
  
  
  b) Validate Pricing Procedure
  
  Confirm that the pricing procedure assigned to the sales document or vehicle transaction is correct.
  Check the configuration in SPRO under Sales and Distribution ? Basic Functions ? Pricing ? Pricing Control.
  Make sure the pricing procedure includes the necessary condition types.
  
  c) Check Document References
  
  If the system references a specific price document number, verify that the document exists and is not deleted or blocked.
  Check the document number passed in the transaction or program causing the error.
  
  d) Review Customizing and Master Data
  
  Ensure that the vehicle master data or service master data is correctly maintained.
  Check if the pricing document is linked properly to the vehicle or service master.
  
  e) Debugging / Logs
  
  If the above steps do not resolve the issue, perform debugging or check application logs to identify where the system fails to find the price document.
  Look for user exits or enhancements that might affect pricing determination.
