    SAP Error Message VO224: "It is not possible to update this combination"


    1. Cause

    The error message VO224 typically occurs in the context of Sales and Distribution (SD), especially when dealing with condition records or pricing procedures. The message indicates that the system cannot update a particular combination of fields because:

    • The combination of key fields (such as condition type, sales organization, distribution channel, customer, material, etc.) is not allowed or does not exist in the system.
    • There might be inconsistencies or missing master data for the combination you are trying to update.
    • The combination is restricted by configuration or customizing settings (e.g., condition tables, access sequences).
    • The user is trying to update a condition record or pricing data that is locked, deleted, or not valid for the given combination.
    • There could be authorization issues preventing the update of this combination.

    2. Solution

    To resolve the VO224 error, follow these steps:

    1. Check the Combination of Fields:

      • Verify the exact combination of fields you are trying to update (e.g., condition type, sales org, distribution channel, customer, material).
      • Ensure that this combination is valid and exists in the system.
    2. Review Condition Tables and Access Sequences:

      • Go to transaction V/03 (Maintain Condition Tables) and check if the combination is defined.
      • Check the access sequence assigned to the condition type in V/07 and verify if the combination is supported.
    3. Check Master Data:

      • Ensure that the master data (customer master, material master, sales area data) exists and is active for the combination.
      • For example, the customer must be assigned to the sales area you are working with.
    4. Check for Locks or Deletions:

      • Verify if the condition record or pricing data is locked or marked for deletion.
      • Use transaction VK13 to display condition records and check their status.
    5. Authorization Check:

      • Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to update the condition records or pricing data.
    6. Recreate or Adjust the Combination:

      • If the combination is invalid or missing, create the necessary master data or condition tables.
      • Adjust the pricing procedure or condition records to include valid combinations.
    7. Debugging / Logs:

      • If the issue persists, check application logs (transaction SLG1) or enable debugging to trace the exact point of failure.
