  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VH548 - Pricing error: Agreed conversion factors not supported (cond. type &1). ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    VH548 Pricing error: Agreed conversion factors not supported (cond. type &1).


    Cause:

    This error occurs during pricing in Sales and Distribution (SD) when the system encounters a condition type that uses agreed conversion factors, but the agreed conversion factor is not supported or not maintained properly for that condition type.

    • Agreed conversion factors are used in pricing when the condition record is maintained with a conversion factor that differs from the standard unit of measure conversion.
    • The error typically arises if the condition type is configured to use agreed conversion factors, but the system cannot find or apply the agreed conversion factor for the condition record or the sales document.
    • It may also occur if the condition type is not set up correctly in the pricing procedure or if the condition record is incomplete or inconsistent.

    Explanation:

    • In SAP SD pricing, condition records can be maintained with different units of measure.
    • When the unit of measure in the sales document differs from the unit of measure in the condition record, SAP uses conversion factors to calculate the correct price.
    • If the condition type is set to use agreed conversion factors (i.e., conversion factors maintained explicitly in the condition record), but these factors are missing or not supported, the system throws this error.
    • The placeholder &1 in the message will be replaced by the condition type causing the issue.

    Solution:

    1. Check Condition Type Configuration:

      • Go to transaction V/06 (Define Condition Types).
      • Check the settings for the condition type mentioned in the error message.
      • Verify if the condition type is set to use agreed conversion factors.
      • If agreed conversion factors are not required, adjust the settings accordingly.
    2. Verify Condition Records:

      • Use transaction VK13 to display the condition record for the condition type.
      • Check if the agreed conversion factors are maintained correctly.
      • Ensure that the units of measure and conversion factors are consistent and valid.
    3. Maintain Conversion Factors:

      • If agreed conversion factors are required, maintain them properly in the condition records.
      • Ensure that the units of measure used in the sales document and condition record have a valid conversion factor.
    4. Check Unit of Measure Settings:

      • Verify the units of measure in CUNI (Units of Measure).
      • Ensure that the conversion factors between units are maintained correctly.
    5. Review Pricing Procedure:

      • Check the pricing procedure to ensure the condition type is correctly included and configured.
    6. Testing:

      • After corrections, test the sales order or billing document again to confirm the error is resolved.

    Additional Information:

    • This error is common when dealing with condition types that involve different units of measure, such as discounts, surcharges, or freight conditions.
    • Agreed conversion factors are often used in industries where pricing depends on specific units (e.g., weight, volume) that differ from the sales unit.
    • If you do not want to use agreed conversion factors, you can configure the condition type to use standard conversion factors instead.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
