  The SAP error message VK136, "Condition rate after rounding is positive," typically occurs in the context of pricing and condition records in SAP. This message indicates that the calculated condition amount after rounding is still positive, which may not be expected in certain scenarios, such as when a discount or rebate is applied.
  Cause:
  
  Rounding Issues: The rounding rules defined in the pricing procedure may lead to a situation where the condition amount is still positive after rounding, even when it should be zero or negative.
  Condition Records: There may be condition records that are not set up correctly, leading to unexpected results in pricing calculations.
  Pricing Procedure: The pricing procedure may not be configured correctly, or the sequence of condition types may not be appropriate for the transaction.
  Currency Conversion: If there are currency conversions involved, rounding differences can occur during the conversion process.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Rounding Rules: Review the rounding rules defined in the pricing procedure. Ensure that they are set up correctly to handle the expected values.
  Review Condition Records: Check the condition records for the relevant pricing conditions. Ensure that they are set up correctly and that there are no conflicting records.
  Adjust Pricing Procedure: If necessary, adjust the pricing procedure to ensure that the sequence of condition types is appropriate and that the rounding behavior is as expected.
  Test with Different Scenarios: Run test transactions with different scenarios to see if the issue persists. This can help identify if the problem is specific to certain conditions or transactions.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on the pricing procedure and condition types being used.

  Pricing Procedure Configuration: The pricing procedure can be configured in the SPRO transaction under Sales and Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Pricing -> Pricing Control.
  Debugging: If the issue is complex, consider debugging the pricing calculation to see where the rounding is applied and how the final condition amount is derived.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with an SAP expert or support team for further assistance.
