  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W_CB269 - Enter a condition group ?

    SAP Error Message:
    W_CB269 - Enter a condition group


    Cause:

    This warning message appears in SAP when you are working with condition records (typically in Pricing or Condition Technique) and the system expects you to enter a Condition Group but it is missing or not maintained.

    A Condition Group is used to group condition records for pricing or other condition types, allowing you to manage and apply conditions collectively. If the condition type or the pricing procedure requires a condition group and it is not entered, SAP issues this warning.


    When does it occur?

    • During creation or maintenance of condition records (transaction codes like VK11, VK12, or VK31).
    • When the condition type is configured to require a condition group.
    • When the pricing procedure or condition technique expects a condition group for the condition type.
    • Possibly during sales order processing if the pricing procedure expects a condition group but none is entered.

    Solution:

    1. Enter the Condition Group:

      • When maintaining condition records, ensure you enter a valid Condition Group in the relevant field.
      • The field is usually labeled as Condition Group or Cond. Group on the condition record screen.
    2. Check Configuration:

      • If you are unsure which condition group to enter, check the customizing settings:
        • SPRO ? Sales and Distribution ? Basic Functions ? Pricing ? Pricing Control ? Define Condition Types
        • Verify if the condition type requires a condition group.
      • Also check the pricing procedure to see if condition groups are used.
    3. Maintain Condition Groups:

      • If no condition groups exist, create them via:
        • SPRO ? Sales and Distribution ? Basic Functions ? Pricing ? Pricing Control ? Define Condition Groups
    4. Adjust Condition Technique:

      • If condition groups are not needed, you may adjust the condition type or pricing procedure to not require condition groups.

    Related Information:

    • Condition Group is a key part of the SAP pricing condition technique, used to group condition records for easier management.
    • Condition groups can be used to differentiate pricing conditions for different customer groups, sales areas, or other criteria.
    • This message is a warning (W_), so it may allow you to proceed but it is recommended to enter the condition group to ensure correct pricing behavior.
    • For more details, check SAP Help or OSS notes related to condition technique and condition groups.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Message W_CB269 - Enter a condition group
    Cause Condition group missing where required
    Solution Enter a valid condition group in condition record maintenance or adjust config
    Where to Check Condition type settings, pricing procedure, condition group master data
