This warning message occurs when a markdown percentage value entered in a pricing or condition record is outside the allowed range. Specifically, the markdown value:
In SAP pricing or condition maintenance, markdowns represent a percentage reduction on a price or cost. The system enforces limits to prevent invalid or nonsensical markdown values.

If markdown values are calculated dynamically (e.g., in user exits, BAdIs, or pricing routines), verify the logic to ensure it does not produce invalid markdown percentages.
Check condition type configuration:
Some condition types may have specific settings or validations. Confirm that the condition type allows markdowns and that the input is consistent with business rules.
