  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W_CB203 - Enter a currency for the maximum condition value ?

    SAP Error Message:
    W_CB203: Enter a currency for the maximum condition value


    Cause:

    This warning message appears in SAP when you are maintaining condition records (e.g., pricing conditions) and you have entered a maximum condition value (e.g., maximum amount or limit) without specifying the corresponding currency. The system requires that whenever a monetary value is entered, the currency must also be specified to avoid ambiguity.


    Explanation:

    • In condition records (such as pricing, discounts, surcharges), you can define limits like minimum or maximum values.
    • If you enter a maximum value (e.g., maximum price, maximum discount amount), the system needs to know in which currency this value is expressed.
    • If the currency field is left blank, SAP issues this warning to prompt you to enter the currency.

    Solution:

    • When entering the maximum condition value, always enter the currency in the currency field.
    • The currency should be consistent with the currency of the condition or the document.
    • If the currency field is not visible, check the condition type configuration or screen layout to ensure the currency field is enabled.
    • If you are using a custom condition type or a special pricing procedure, verify that the currency field is correctly maintained in the condition records.

    How to fix:

    1. Go to the transaction where you maintain condition records (e.g., VK11, VK12, or VK13).
    2. Enter the maximum condition value.
    3. Enter the corresponding currency in the currency field next to the maximum value.
    4. Save the condition record.

    Additional Information:

    • This message is a warning (W), not an error, so you can still save the record, but it is recommended to enter the currency to avoid inconsistencies.
    • The message helps maintain data integrity and ensures that pricing calculations are done correctly.
    • If you frequently encounter this message and the currency field is missing, check the condition type configuration in transaction V/06 or the pricing procedure in V/08.
    • In some cases, the currency might be derived automatically from the document or master data, but explicit entry is required if the system cannot determine it.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Message W_CB203: Enter a currency for the maximum condition value
    Cause Maximum condition value entered without currency
    Solution Enter the currency corresponding to the maximum value
    Transaction VK11, VK12, VK13 (Condition maintenance)
    Related Config Condition type (V/06), Pricing procedure (V/08)

    If you need further help, please provide the context (transaction, condition type) where the message appears.
