  Error Message
  W_CB220: Validity interval includes condition &1
  
  Cause
  This warning message occurs in SAP when you try to create or maintain a condition record in the pricing or condition technique, and the validity period (valid-from and valid-to dates) of the new condition record overlaps with an existing condition record for the same key combination (e.g., same customer/material/price list, etc.).
  In other words, there is already a condition record with a validity interval that includes or overlaps the validity interval you are trying to enter. SAP does not allow overlapping validity intervals for condition records because it would create ambiguity in pricing determination.
  
  Explanation
  
  Condition records in SAP pricing are defined with validity intervals.
  Each condition record must have a unique validity interval for the same key combination.
  Overlapping intervals cause SAP to issue this warning to prevent conflicts in pricing determination.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check Existing Condition Records:
  
  Use transaction VK13 (Display Condition Records) or VK12 (Change Condition Records) to check existing condition records for the same condition type and key combination.
  Look at the validity intervals of existing records.
  
  
  
  Adjust Validity Dates:
  
  Modify the validity interval of the new condition record so that it does not overlap with existing intervals.
  Alternatively, adjust the existing condition records' validity intervals to avoid overlap.
  
  
  
  Delete or Archive Old Records:
  
  If old condition records are no longer needed, consider deleting or archiving them to clear the validity interval.
  
  
  
  Use Different Condition Records:
  
  If overlapping intervals are necessary for different scenarios, consider using different condition types or key combinations.
