This error indicates that the calculated amount for a condition record (like a discount or surcharge) has fallen below the minimum limit defined in the condition record's scale.

    Cause:

    1. Condition Record Configuration: The condition record for the pricing condition has a scale defined with minimum and maximum limits. If the calculated value falls below the minimum limit, this error will be triggered.

    1. Check Condition Records:

      • Go to transaction code VK11 (Create Condition) or VK12 (Change Condition) to review the condition records for the relevant pricing condition.
      • Verify the scale settings and ensure that the lower limit is appropriate for the expected transaction values.
