  SAP Error Message:
  
  W_CB371: Enter a condition type
  
  Cause:
  This warning message appears when you are trying to proceed in a transaction (usually in pricing or condition maintenance) without specifying a required condition type. Condition types in SAP define the pricing elements such as discounts, surcharges, taxes, or base prices. The system expects at least one condition type to be entered to calculate pricing or to maintain condition records.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During sales order creation or pricing procedure maintenance, if no condition type is entered where it is mandatory.
  While maintaining condition records in transaction codes like VK11, VK12, or VK13, if the condition type field is left blank.
  In pricing procedures where a condition type is required to determine the price or discount but is missing.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Enter a valid condition type:  
  
  Identify the appropriate condition type for your pricing or condition record scenario (e.g., PR00 for base price, K004 for customer discount).
  Enter the condition type in the required field.
  
  
  
  Check the pricing procedure:  
  
  Ensure that the pricing procedure assigned to the sales document or transaction includes the necessary condition types.
  Use transaction V/08 to review or modify the pricing procedure.
  
  
  
  Maintain condition records:  
  
  Use transaction VK11 to create condition records for the required condition type.
  Make sure the condition type is active and valid for the sales area and validity period.
  
  
  
  Verify configuration:  
  
  If the condition type is missing or not assigned, check the configuration in SPRO under Sales and Distribution ? Basic Functions ? Pricing ? Pricing Control ? Define Condition Types.
  Ensure the condition type is properly configured and assigned to the pricing procedure.
