  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W_CB366 - Condition &1 has not validity interval that starts at &2. ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    W_CB366 Condition &1 has not validity interval that starts at &2.


    Meaning / Cause:

    This warning message occurs in SAP when you are trying to process or use a condition record (e.g., pricing condition) that does not have a validity interval starting at the specified date (&2). In other words, the system expects the condition record (&1) to be valid from a certain date, but no such validity interval exists starting exactly at that date.

    This typically happens during pricing or condition maintenance when the system tries to find a condition record valid for a particular date but cannot find one that starts exactly on that date.


    Common Scenarios:

    • You are creating or changing a sales document or pricing condition, and the system looks for a condition record valid from the document date.
    • The condition record exists but its validity period does not start on the date the system expects.
    • The condition record might have a validity interval that starts before or after the date in question, but not exactly on that date.
    • This can also happen during condition copying or condition record maintenance.

    Solution / How to Fix:

    1. Check Condition Validity Intervals:

      • Go to transaction VK13 (Display Condition Records) or VK12 (Change Condition Records).
      • Enter the condition type and relevant keys.
      • Check the validity intervals of the condition records.
      • Verify if there is a condition record with a validity interval starting exactly on the date &2 (the date mentioned in the message).
    2. Adjust Validity Intervals:

      • If no condition record starts on the required date, you may need to create a new condition record with a validity interval starting on that date.
      • Alternatively, adjust the existing condition record validity intervals to cover the required date properly.
    3. Use Validity Intervals Correctly:

      • SAP pricing conditions require that the validity intervals do not overlap and cover the required periods.
      • Make sure the intervals are continuous if needed, or at least that the system can find a condition record valid for the date in question.
    4. Check Pricing Procedure and Condition Types:

      • Sometimes the issue arises due to incorrect pricing procedure or condition type configuration.
      • Verify that the pricing procedure is correctly assigned and that the condition types are maintained properly.
    5. Check Document Date:

      • Ensure that the document date or the date used for condition determination is correct and matches the validity intervals of the condition records.

    Additional Information:

    • This message is a warning (W_), so it may not stop the process but indicates a potential issue with condition validity.
    • It is important to maintain condition records with proper validity intervals to avoid pricing inconsistencies.
    • If you are unsure about the validity intervals, consult your pricing or SD (Sales and Distribution) consultant.
    • Sometimes, this message can be ignored if the pricing is still correct, but it is better to maintain clean and consistent condition records.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Message W_CB366 Condition &1 has not validity interval that starts at &2.
    Cause No condition record for condition &1 starts exactly at date &2.
