  The error message VH528 typically occurs in the context of pricing or condition technique in SAP Sales and Distribution (SD) or Materials Management (MM) modules. It indicates that the system is trying to access or apply a condition record (pricing condition) that does not exist or cannot be found in the condition tables for the specified combination of keys.
  More specifically, the message means that the system expected to find a condition record for a particular condition type and key combination, but no such record exists in the database.
  Common causes include:
  
  Missing condition records for the specified condition type and key combination.
  Incorrect or incomplete condition master data.
  Incorrect access sequence or condition tables assigned to the condition type.
  Incorrect or missing data in the sales document or purchasing document that is used to determine the condition record.
  Customizing errors in pricing procedure or condition technique.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the VH528 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Condition Records:
  
  Use transaction VK13 (Display Condition Records) or MEK3 (Display Purchasing Conditions) to verify if the condition record exists for the condition type and key combination.
  If missing, create the required condition record using VK11 or MEK1.
  
  
  
  Verify Condition Technique Customizing:
  
  Check the access sequence assigned to the condition type in transaction V/07.
  Verify the condition tables assigned to the access sequence in V/08.
  Ensure that the condition tables contain the necessary fields and that the data in the sales/purchasing document matches the key fields.
  
  
  
  Check Pricing Procedure:
  
  Verify the pricing procedure assigned to the sales document type and customer/material combination.

  Missing or incorrect data can cause the system to fail to find the condition record.
  
  
  
  Debugging:
  
  If the above steps do not resolve the issue, debugging the pricing routine or condition determination logic may be necessary.
  Use transaction VA02 or ME22N and set breakpoints in user exits or pricing routines to trace the condition determination process.
