  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message W_CB202: "Due to automatic document adjustment, condition types must be different":
  
  Error Message:
  W_CB202
  
  Due to automatic document adjustment, condition types must be different
  
  Cause:
  This warning occurs during automatic document adjustment in SAP, typically in the context of automatic clearing or automatic payment program when the system tries to adjust or clear open items.
  
  The system detects that the condition types (pricing or adjustment conditions) involved in the document adjustment are the same.
  SAP requires that the condition types used in the adjustment process must be different to avoid conflicts or incorrect postings.
  This usually happens when the system tries to post or clear documents where the same condition type is applied multiple times or in conflicting ways.
  
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During automatic clearing of open items.
  During automatic payment runs or automatic document adjustments.
  When condition types are used in pricing or adjustments and the system tries to adjust documents with identical condition types.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Condition Types:
  
  Review the condition types assigned in the pricing procedure or adjustment procedure.
  Ensure that the condition types used for adjustments or discounts are distinct and not duplicated in the same document or adjustment process.
  
  
  
  Adjust Pricing Procedure:
  
  Modify the pricing procedure to avoid using the same condition type multiple times in a way that causes conflicts.
  If necessary, create new condition types for different adjustments.
  
  
  
  Review Automatic Clearing Settings:
  
  Check the configuration for automatic clearing or payment program.
  Ensure that the system is not trying to clear or adjust documents with identical condition types that conflict.
  
  
  
  Manual Intervention:
  
  If automatic adjustment fails, consider manual clearing or adjustment of the documents.
  Review the open items and postings to identify conflicting condition types.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes:
  
  Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this warning message.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  This is a warning message (W_...), so the system may allow the process to continue but it indicates a potential issue that could lead to incorrect postings.
  Condition types in SAP are used to define pricing elements such as discounts, surcharges, taxes, etc.
  Proper configuration of condition types and pricing procedures is essential to avoid such conflicts.
  This message helps maintain data integrity during automatic document processing.
