  SAP Error Message: VN2036 - Two fixed procedures: &
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs during invoice verification or related procurement processes when the system detects that two different fixed price procedures have been assigned or determined for the same document or item. In SAP, a fixed price procedure is a pricing condition type or procedure that should be unique per document/item. Having two fixed procedures conflicts with the system's logic, causing this error.
  Typically, this happens because:
  
  There are conflicting pricing procedures assigned in the configuration.
  The document or item has been assigned two different fixed price conditions.
  Customizing or master data inconsistencies lead to multiple fixed price procedures being triggered.
  Incorrect or overlapping condition records or condition types in pricing procedure determination.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the VN2036 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Pricing Procedure Configuration:
  
  Go to SPRO ? Materials Management ? Invoice Verification ? Pricing ? Define Pricing Procedures.
  Verify that only one fixed price procedure is assigned per relevant document/item type.
  Ensure no overlapping or conflicting fixed price procedures exist.
  
  
  
  Review Condition Types and Condition Records:
  
  Check the condition types assigned to the pricing procedure.
  Make sure that only one fixed price condition type is active.
  Use transaction MEK1/MEK2 to review condition records for fixed price conditions.
  
  
  
  Analyze the Document:
  
  Look at the invoice or purchase order document triggering the error.
  Check if multiple fixed price conditions are applied to the same item.
  Use transaction MRBR or MIRO to analyze invoice verification.
  
  
  
  Check Customizing for Pricing Procedure Determination:
  
  Verify the determination of pricing procedures in SPRO ? Materials Management ? Purchasing ? Conditions ? Define Price Determination Process.
  Ensure that the system does not assign multiple fixed price procedures based on vendor, purchasing organization, or document type.
  
  
  
  Correct Master Data or Document Data:
  
  If master data (vendor, material, purchasing info record) causes conflicting pricing procedures, correct the data.
  Adjust or delete duplicate or conflicting condition records.
  
  
  
  Debugging (if necessary):
  
  If the cause is not obvious, debugging the pricing procedure determination or invoice verification process may be required.
  Check user exits or enhancements that might assign fixed price procedures incorrectly.

  Sometimes, patches or support packages address such errors.
  
  
  
  Pricing Procedure Concepts:
  
  Fixed price procedures are used to lock prices in purchasing documents.
  Only one fixed price procedure should be active per document/item to avoid conflicts.
  
  
  
  Common Scenario:
  
  When a vendor or purchasing organization has multiple pricing procedures assigned, and the system cannot decide which one to apply, this error can occur.
  
  
  
  
  Summary:
