VK491
- Price agreements with same key copied. Save first ?The SAP error message VK491 ("Price agreements with same key copied. Save first.") typically occurs in the context of pricing agreements or conditions in SAP, particularly when working with condition records in the pricing procedure. This error indicates that you are trying to create or modify a pricing condition that has the same key as an existing one, and SAP requires you to save the existing record before proceeding with the new entry.
Cause:
- Duplicate Key: You are attempting to create a new pricing condition that has the same key (e.g., condition type, validity period, etc.) as an existing one.
- Uncommitted Changes: There are unsaved changes in the current session that conflict with the new entry you are trying to make.
Solution:
- Save Existing Changes: If you have made changes to an existing pricing condition, save those changes first. This will commit the current state of the data and allow you to proceed with creating or modifying the new condition.
- Check for Duplicates: Before creating a new pricing condition, check if a condition with the same key already exists. If it does, you may need to modify the existing record instead of creating a new one.
- Use Different Key: If you need to create a new condition, ensure that it has a unique key that does not conflict with existing records.
- Transaction Logs: If you are unsure about the existing records, you can use transaction codes like
VK11
(Create Condition),VK12
(Change Condition), orVK13
(Display Condition) to review existing conditions.Related Information:
