• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VS013 - Tolerance limits are not required in the case of unlimited tolerance ?

  The SAP error message VS013 indicates that tolerance limits are not required when unlimited tolerance is set for a particular condition. This error typically arises in the context of pricing or conditions in sales and distribution (SD) or materials management (MM) modules.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when you attempt to set tolerance limits for a condition record that has been defined with unlimited tolerance. In SAP, unlimited tolerance means that there are no restrictions on the amount of deviation allowed for a particular condition. Therefore, specifying tolerance limits in this scenario is contradictory and leads to the error message.
  Solution:
  To resolve the VS013 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Condition Records: 
  
  Go to the relevant condition record (e.g., pricing condition) in the SAP system.
  Verify if the condition is set to unlimited tolerance. You can do this by checking the condition type settings.
  
  
  
  Adjust Tolerance Settings:
  
  If you need to maintain tolerance limits, you should change the condition type to one that does not have unlimited tolerance.
  Alternatively, if unlimited tolerance is indeed required, remove any tolerance limits that have been defined for that condition.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  If you are unsure about the settings, consult with your SAP configuration team or refer to the configuration documentation for the specific condition type.
  Ensure that the settings align with your business requirements.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, test the changes by attempting to process the transaction again to ensure that the error no longer appears.
  
  
  
  Related Information:

  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as VK11 (Create Condition), VK12 (Change Condition), and VK13 (Display Condition) for managing condition records.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the VS013 error and ensure that your pricing or condition records are set up correctly in SAP.
