  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W0131 - Maintain coupon share and condition type, as account key entered ?

    SAP Error Message:
    W0131 - Maintain coupon share and condition type, as account key entered


    Cause:

    This warning message appears during pricing or condition maintenance in SAP Sales and Distribution (SD) when the system detects that a condition type linked to an account key requires additional details related to coupon shares or coupon conditions, but these details have not been maintained.

    Specifically, the error occurs because:

    • The account key assigned to the condition type in the pricing procedure is configured to require coupon share and coupon condition type information.
    • However, the user has not maintained the coupon share and coupon condition type for that account key.

    This is common in scenarios where pricing involves coupons or rebates, and the system needs to know how the coupon value is shared or which condition types are involved for proper accounting and settlement.


    Explanation:

    • Account Key: In SAP SD pricing, the account key determines how the condition value is posted to accounting.
    • Coupon Share: Defines how the coupon value is distributed among different parties or accounts.
    • Coupon Condition Type: Specifies the condition types related to coupons or rebates.

    If the account key requires coupon-related data, but this data is missing, SAP issues this warning to prompt the user to maintain the necessary details.


    Solution:

    To resolve the W0131 warning, you need to maintain the coupon share and coupon condition type for the account key in question.

    Steps:

    1. Identify the Account Key:

      • Check the pricing procedure and condition type that triggered the warning.
      • Note the account key assigned to that condition type.
    2. Maintain Coupon Share and Condition Type:

      • Go to transaction V/06 (Maintain Account Keys).
      • Select the relevant account key.
      • Maintain the Coupon Share and Coupon Condition Type fields as required.
        • Coupon Share: Defines the percentage or share of the coupon.
        • Coupon Condition Type: Assign the condition type(s) related to coupons or rebates.
    3. Save the changes.

    4. Reprocess the document or pricing:

      • After maintaining the coupon share and condition type, retry the pricing or document processing.
      • The warning should no longer appear.

    Additional Information:

    • This message is a warning (W), not an error, so it may not stop processing but indicates incomplete configuration.
    • Coupon shares and condition types are mainly used in complex pricing scenarios involving rebates, coupons, or promotional pricing.
    • Proper maintenance ensures correct accounting postings and rebate settlements.
    • If coupons or rebates are not used in your scenario, verify if the account key is correctly assigned or if the coupon-related fields can be left blank.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Cause Account key requires coupon share and condition type, but these are not maintained.
    Solution Maintain coupon share and coupon condition type for the account key in transaction V/06.
    Transaction to fix V/06 (Maintain Account Keys)
