  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W_CB236 - Selected condition is incorrect or incomplete ?

    SAP Error Message:
    W_CB236 Selected condition is incorrect or incomplete


    Cause:

    This warning message typically occurs in SAP Sales and Distribution (SD) or Pricing when a condition record selected during pricing is either incomplete or does not meet the required criteria. The system detects that the condition used for pricing is not fully valid or lacks necessary data, which can happen due to:

    • Missing or incomplete key fields in the condition record.
    • Condition record not maintained properly for the combination of fields used in the pricing procedure.
    • Condition record validity period expired or not valid for the current document date.
    • Incorrect or inconsistent condition type configuration.
    • Condition record exists but does not match the selection criteria (e.g., customer/material combination).

    Solution:

    To resolve the W_CB236 warning, follow these steps:

    1. Check Condition Records:

      • Use transaction VK13 (Display Condition Records) to verify the condition record for the condition type in question.
      • Ensure that the condition record is complete and valid for the sales document date, customer, material, and other relevant fields.
    2. Verify Condition Validity:

      • Check the validity period of the condition record to ensure it covers the date of the sales document.
      • Adjust the validity period if necessary using VK12 (Change Condition Records).
    3. Review Pricing Procedure:

      • Confirm that the pricing procedure assigned to the sales document type and sales area includes the correct condition types.
      • Check if the condition type is correctly configured in V/06 (Condition Types).
    4. Check Access Sequence:

      • Verify the access sequence assigned to the condition type in V/07.
      • Ensure that the access sequence fields correspond to the data maintained in the condition records.
    5. Analyze Pricing Logs:

      • Use transaction VK11 or the pricing analysis tool (e.g., pricing trace via /SAPAPO/PRC_TRACE or debugging pricing) to see why the condition record is considered incomplete or incorrect.
    6. Correct Master Data:

      • Ensure that master data (customer, material, sales area) is correctly maintained and consistent with the condition record keys.
    7. Consult SAP Notes:

      • Sometimes, specific SAP Notes address known issues related to this warning. Search the SAP Support Portal for W_CB236 or related condition pricing issues.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • VK11 – Create Condition Records
      • VK12 – Change Condition Records
      • VK13 – Display Condition Records
      • V/06 – Condition Types
      • V/07 – Access Sequences
      • V/08 – Pricing Procedures
    • SAP Modules:

      • Sales and Distribution (SD)
      • Pricing and Conditions
    • Common Scenario:

      • When pricing is executed during sales order creation (VA01/VA02), the system tries to find a valid condition record for each condition type in the pricing procedure. If it finds a record that is incomplete or does not fully match the required fields, it issues this warning.
    • Impact:

      • This warning may not stop the sales order creation but indicates that pricing might not be accurate or complete, potentially leading to incorrect pricing or discounts.

    If you provide the exact context (e.g., transaction, condition type, pricing procedure), I can help with more tailored troubleshooting steps.
