• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VK_A014 - Same priorities in access &; however access is exclusive ?

  The SAP error message VK_A014 indicates that there is a conflict in the access sequence configuration for pricing conditions. Specifically, it means that there are multiple access entries with the same priority in the access sequence, but the access is defined as exclusive. This situation leads to ambiguity in determining which condition record should be applied.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Access Entries: The access sequence has multiple entries with the same priority level, which is not allowed when the access is set to exclusive.
  Configuration Error: The configuration of the access sequence may not have been set up correctly, leading to overlapping priorities.
  Condition Records: There may be condition records that are defined in such a way that they conflict with each other.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the VK_A014 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Review Access Sequence:
  
  Go to the transaction code V/07 (for access sequences) and check the access sequence that is causing the error.
  Look for entries with the same priority level.
  
  
  
  Adjust Priorities:
  
  Change the priority of the access entries so that each entry has a unique priority. This can be done by editing the access sequence and adjusting the sequence of the accesses.
  
  
  
  Check Condition Records:
  
  Use transaction code VK11 or VK12 to check the condition records associated with the access sequence. Ensure that there are no conflicting records that could lead to the same priority issue.
  
  
  
  Test Changes:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, test the pricing procedure to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If you are unsure about how to adjust the access sequence or condition records, refer to SAP documentation or consult with a functional consultant who specializes in pricing.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Access Sequences: These are used in SAP to determine the pricing conditions based on various criteria (like customer, material, etc.).
  Condition Types: Each condition type can have its own access sequence, and understanding how these interact is crucial for proper pricing configuration.
  Exclusive Access: When an access sequence is set to exclusive, it means that only one condition record can be applied based on the defined criteria, which is why unique priorities are necessary.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the VK_A014 error and ensure that your pricing conditions are applied correctly without conflicts.
