• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W_CB367 - Scale base &1 is not allowed ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  W_CB367 Scale base &1 is not allowed
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when an invalid or not permitted scale base is assigned or used in a condition record or pricing procedure. The "scale base" defines the unit or basis on which scales (e.g., quantity scales, value scales) are applied in pricing or conditions. If the scale base entered is not allowed or not defined in the system for the particular condition type or pricing procedure, SAP throws this error.
  Common scenarios causing this error:  
  
  The scale base entered in the condition record is not consistent with the allowed scale bases for that condition type.  
  The scale base is missing or incorrectly maintained in the customizing for the condition type or pricing procedure.  
  The scale base is not defined or activated in the system for the relevant application area.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Condition Type Configuration:
  
  Go to SPRO ? Sales and Distribution ? Basic Functions ? Pricing ? Pricing Control ? Define Condition Types.
  Verify the allowed scale bases for the condition type in question.
  Ensure that the scale base you are trying to use is permitted.
  
  
  
  Check Scale Base Settings:
  
  Go to SPRO ? Sales and Distribution ? Basic Functions ? Pricing ? Pricing Control ? Define Scale Bases.
  Verify that the scale base you want to use is defined and active.
  
  
  
  Adjust the Condition Record:
  
  When maintaining the condition record (transaction VK11/VK12), ensure that the scale base entered matches one of the allowed scale bases for the condition type.
  If the scale base is incorrect, correct it to a valid one.
  
  
  
  Review Pricing Procedure:
  
  Check the pricing procedure assigned to the sales document type and sales area.
  Ensure that the condition type and its scale base are consistent with the pricing procedure setup.
  
  
  
  If Custom Scale Base is Needed:
  
  If a new scale base is required, define it in customizing and assign it properly to the condition type.
