  The SAP error message VK447 ("Condition table does not contain a material number in the key") typically occurs in the context of pricing conditions in SAP, particularly when working with condition records in the pricing procedure. This error indicates that the condition table being referenced does not include the material number as part of its key fields, which is necessary for the pricing condition to be applied correctly.
  Cause:
  
  Condition Table Definition: The condition table being used does not have the material number as one of its key fields. This can happen if the condition table was created without including the material number or if the wrong condition table is being referenced in the pricing procedure.
  Incorrect Condition Record: The condition record being accessed may not be valid for the material in question because it is not defined in the condition table.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check Condition Table:
  
  Go to transaction V/03 (Display Condition Table) and check the definition of the condition table being used. Ensure that the material number is included in the key fields of the condition table.
