• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VYSC035 - Only use calculation type "extension" for the last scale value ?

  The SAP error message VYSC035, which states "Only use calculation type 'extension' for the last scale value," typically occurs in the context of pricing conditions in SAP, particularly when dealing with condition records for pricing in sales and distribution (SD) modules.
  Cause:
  This error arises when you are trying to define a pricing condition record that includes multiple scale values, but the last scale value is not set up correctly. In SAP, the last scale value in a pricing condition must use the calculation type "extension." This means that the last scale value should not have a specific limit and should extend indefinitely (or until the end of the pricing condition).
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should check the following:
  
  
  Condition Record Setup:
  
  Go to the condition record for the pricing condition type you are working with (e.g., using transaction code VK11 or VK12).
  Ensure that the last scale value is set to use the calculation type "extension." This is usually indicated by a specific setting in the condition record.
  
  
  
  Adjust Scale Values:
  
  If you have multiple scale values, ensure that the last one is defined correctly. The last scale value should not have a maximum limit; it should be set to extend beyond the previous scale values.
  
  
  
  Review Calculation Types:
  
  Check the calculation types assigned to the scale values. The last scale value should be set to "extension" (often represented by a specific code or option in the SAP interface).
  
  
  
  Documentation and Help:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help files for detailed instructions on setting up condition records and scale values. This can provide additional context and examples.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, test the condition record to ensure that the error no longer appears and that the pricing behaves as expected.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  
  Transaction Codes: 
  
  VK11 - Create Condition
  VK12 - Change Condition
  VK13 - Display Condition
  
  
  
  Condition Types: Familiarize yourself with the specific condition types you are working with, as different types may have different rules regarding scale values.
  
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this error or provide additional guidance on pricing conditions.
  
  
  User Roles: Ensure that you have the appropriate permissions to create or modify condition records in SAP.
