  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  W_DSD_01003 Price list-specific prices not allowed for distribution chain &1/&2
  
  Cause:
  This warning message occurs in SAP's Direct Store Delivery (DSD) or Sales and Distribution (SD) module when you attempt to assign or use price list-specific prices for a distribution chain that is not configured to allow such prices.
  In other words, the system is indicating that the distribution chain identified by the combination of &1 (Sales Organization) and &2 (Distribution Channel) does not permit price list-specific pricing. Price list-specific prices are prices maintained specifically for a price list, which can be assigned to customers or distribution chains.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Distribution Chain: Combination of Sales Organization + Distribution Channel.
  Price List-Specific Prices: Prices maintained in condition records that are linked to a price list.
  The system checks the configuration of the distribution chain to see if price list-specific pricing is allowed.
  If the distribution chain is not set up to allow price list-specific prices, but such prices are being used or assigned, this warning is triggered.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Distribution Chain Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction OVX5 (or SPRO path:
  
  Sales and Distribution -> Master Data -> Business Partners -> Customers -> Define Distribution Chain).
  Select the relevant Sales Organization and Distribution Channel.
  Verify if the distribution chain is configured to allow price list-specific prices.
  
  
  
  Adjust Configuration if Needed:
  
  If price list-specific prices are required for this distribution chain, enable the relevant setting.
  This might involve setting a flag or adjusting the pricing procedure or condition types to allow price list-specific pricing.
  
  
  
  Review Pricing Procedure and Condition Records:
  
  Check if the pricing procedure assigned to the sales document or distribution chain supports price list-specific prices.
  Review condition records for price lists to ensure they are correctly maintained and assigned.
  
  
  
  Alternative:
  
  If price list-specific prices are not intended for this distribution chain, remove or avoid assigning such prices in the sales documents or master data.
