• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W_DSD_01002 - Store-specific prices not allowed for distribution chain &1/&2 ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  W_DSD_01002: Store-specific prices not allowed for distribution chain &1/&2
  
  Cause:
  This warning message occurs in SAP when you try to maintain or use store-specific prices (e.g., condition records or pricing agreements) for a distribution chain that is not configured to allow store-specific pricing.
  In SAP Retail (especially in Direct Store Delivery - DSD scenarios), pricing can be maintained at different organizational levels:
  
  Distribution Chain Level (e.g., a wholesaler or regional distribution center)
  Store Level (individual retail stores)
  
  If the distribution chain is set up to use only distribution chain-level prices (i.e., prices valid for all stores under that chain), then the system does not allow prices to be maintained or applied specifically for individual stores under that chain.
  
  Explanation:
  
  The message indicates that the distribution chain identified by &1 (distribution chain) and &2 (sales organization) is not configured to allow store-specific prices.
  Attempting to create or use store-specific prices for this distribution chain violates the configuration.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Distribution Chain Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction OVX5 (or SPRO path:
  
  SAP Reference IMG ? Logistics - General ? Business Partner ? Customer ? Define Distribution Chain).
  Select the relevant distribution chain and sales organization.
  Check the setting for Store-specific pricing or Store-specific conditions.
  If store-specific prices are required, enable the option to allow store-specific pricing for this distribution chain.
  
  
  
  Adjust Pricing Maintenance:
  
  If store-specific pricing is not allowed or not desired, maintain prices only at the distribution chain level.
  Avoid creating condition records or price agreements at the store level for this distribution chain.
  
  
  
  Review Condition Records:
  
  Use transaction VK11/VK12 to check condition records.
  Ensure that condition records are maintained at the correct organizational level (distribution chain vs. store).
  
  
  
  Consult Retail Pricing Setup:
  
  In Retail, pricing can be complex due to multiple organizational levels.
  Confirm with your pricing/business team whether store-specific pricing is part of the business process.
  If yes, update the distribution chain configuration accordingly.
