  Error Message:
  W_CB225 - The status does not allow adding of conditions
  
  Cause:
  This warning message occurs when you try to add or change pricing conditions in a document (such as a sales order, billing document, or purchase order) but the current status of the document or item does not permit modifications to conditions.
  Typical scenarios include:
  
  The document or item is in a status where pricing is locked or finalized.
  The document has been partially or fully processed (e.g., delivery created, billing completed).
  The document is in a status that restricts changes to pricing conditions to maintain data consistency.
  The system settings or user authorizations prevent condition changes in the current status.
  
  
  Where it commonly occurs:
  
  Sales Order Processing (VA01/VA02)
  Billing Documents (VF01/VF02)
  Purchase Orders (ME21N/ME22N)
  Contracts or Scheduling Agreements
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Document Status:
  
  Verify the status of the document or item.
  For sales documents, check if the item is already delivered, billed, or locked.
  For billing documents, check if the document is already posted or locked.
  
  
  
  Change Document Status (if possible):
  
  If the document is locked or finalized, you may need to reverse or cancel subsequent documents (e.g., cancel delivery or billing) to allow changes.
  Use transaction codes like VL09 (cancel goods issue), VF11 (cancel billing document), or others depending on the document type.
  
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Ensure the user has the necessary authorizations to change conditions in the current document status.
  
  
  
  Review Customizing Settings:
  
  In some cases, the system behavior is controlled by customizing settings in pricing or document control.
  Check settings in transaction codes like V/06 (Pricing Procedure), VOV8 (Sales Document Types), or related IMG nodes.
  
  
  
  Use Correct Transaction:
  
  Sometimes, conditions can only be changed in specific transactions or document change modes.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes:
  
  Search SAP Support Portal for notes related to W_CB225 for any known issues or patches.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Message Class: CB2 (Condition Management)
  Message Type: Warning (W)
  The warning means the system prevents condition changes to avoid inconsistencies.
  If you ignore the warning, the system will not save the condition changes.
  Always ensure that the business process allows condition changes at the current stage.
