• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W0073 - Condition record &1 is supplementary condition without access sequence ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  W0073 Condition record &1 is supplementary condition without access sequence
  
  Cause:
  This warning message occurs when a supplementary condition type is maintained in the pricing procedure, but no access sequence is assigned to it. In SAP pricing, supplementary conditions are used to add additional amounts (like surcharges or discounts) on top of the basic price. However, for the system to find the relevant condition records, the condition type must have an access sequence defined.
  If the condition type is marked as supplementary but does not have an access sequence, the system cannot determine how to find the condition records, leading to this warning.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Condition Type: Defines the kind of pricing element (e.g., price, discount, surcharge).
  Supplementary Condition: A condition that is added on top of the basic price, often used for additional charges or discounts.
  Access Sequence: A search strategy that tells the system where and how to look for condition records in condition tables.
  
  If a condition type is supplementary but lacks an access sequence, the system cannot retrieve condition records, which may cause pricing errors or incomplete pricing.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Condition Type Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction V/06 (Change Condition Types).
  Select the condition type mentioned in the message (the placeholder &1 will be replaced by the actual condition type).
  Verify if the condition type is marked as supplementary (checkbox "Supplementary condition" is selected).
  
  
  
  Assign an Access Sequence:
  
  If the condition type is supplementary, ensure that an access sequence is assigned.
  If no access sequence is assigned, assign an appropriate access sequence that fits the business requirement.
  If the condition type should not be supplementary, uncheck the supplementary flag.
  
  
  
  Check Condition Records:
  
  After assigning the access sequence, maintain condition records for this condition type using transaction VK11.
  
  
  
  Adjust Pricing Procedure:
  
  Ensure the condition type is correctly included in the pricing procedure (transaction V/08).
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Supplementary conditions are typically used for conditions like freight, taxes, or surcharges that are added after the basic price is determined.
  Access sequences define the sequence of condition tables the system searches to find valid condition records.
  Without an access sequence, the system cannot find condition records, so the condition type is effectively useless in pricing.
  
  
  Summary:
