• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VT650 - Different calculation type not allowed (cond. type &1 has calc.type &2) ?

  The SAP error message VT650 indicates that there is a mismatch in the calculation types for a condition type in a pricing procedure. This error typically occurs in the context of sales and distribution (SD) when trying to process a sales document, such as a sales order or a billing document.
  Cause:
  The error message "Different calculation type not allowed (cond. type &1 has calc.type &2)" arises when:
  
  A condition type (e.g., a discount, surcharge, or tax) is being used in a way that is not compatible with its defined calculation type.
  The condition type is expected to perform a certain type of calculation (e.g., percentage, fixed amount), but the current configuration or the data being processed does not align with that expectation.
  For example, if a condition type is defined as a percentage but is being used in a context where a fixed amount is expected, this error will occur.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the VT650 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Condition Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the condition type configuration in the SAP system (Transaction code: V/06).
  Verify the calculation type of the condition type that is causing the error (indicated by &1 in the error message).
  Ensure that the calculation type is appropriate for the context in which it is being used.
  
  
  
  Review Pricing Procedure:
  
  Check the pricing procedure assigned to the sales document (Transaction code: V/08).
  Ensure that the condition types used in the pricing procedure are correctly configured and that their calculation types are consistent with the expected behavior.
  
  
  
  Analyze Sales Document:
  
  Review the specific sales document that triggered the error.
  Check the condition records and ensure that the values and types are correctly set up.
  
  
  
  Adjust Condition Records:
  
  If necessary, adjust the condition records for the condition type to ensure they match the expected calculation type.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or consult with your SAP functional team for specific guidance on the condition types and pricing procedures relevant to your business processes.
  
  
  
  Testing:
