SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: W_DSD_01 - Global message class for DSD

• Message number: 017

• Message text: Sales price maintenance not allowed for supplier &1, store &2, material &

What causes this issue?

In Customizing, either the allowed pricing level below distribution
chain for this distribution chain is set to "Only price lists allowed",
or you have selected a vendor-store-material relationship where the
vendor is not the main vendor for this relationship.

System Response

It is not possible to calculate store-specific sales prices for stores
belonging to the distribution chain with the setup "Only price lists
allowed".
If the store-specific sales price maintenance is allowed, a sales price
calculation is possible only for main vendors, as the sales price cannot
be calculated for different vendors at the same time. This is due to the
fact that only one sales price per material and store can be saved. For
this reason, the system uses the purchase price of the main vendor to
calculate the sales price.
The system cannot calculate the sales price for non-main-vendor rows.
However, if a main vendor row was also selected for the given material
and store, the system automatically copies the calculated sales price to
the dependent non-main-vendor rows.

How to fix this error?

If you need to display and maintain store-specific sales and promotion
prices, change the setup for this distribution chain in Customizing at
IMG -> Logistics - General -> Basic Data Retail -> Distribution Chain
Control. Set the field "DChain pricing level" to the appropriate value.
If store-specific sales price maintenance is allowed, select another row
for this material and store, where the corresponding vendor is marked as
main vendor.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  W_DSD_01017
  
  Text: Sales price maintenance not allowed for supplier &1, store &2, material &3
  
  Cause:
  This warning message occurs when you attempt to maintain or change the sales price for a material in a Direct Store Delivery (DSD) scenario, but the system settings or master data configuration do not allow price maintenance for the combination of:
  
  Supplier (&1)
  Store (&2)
  Material (&3)
  
  In DSD processes, sales prices are often controlled centrally or by specific conditions. If the system is configured such that the sales price for a particular supplier-store-material combination is fixed or maintained elsewhere (e.g., centrally in condition records or by the supplier), manual price maintenance is blocked to ensure data consistency.
  
  Typical Reasons:
  
  The material is assigned to a supplier and store where price maintenance is restricted.
  The pricing procedure or condition records are set up to prevent manual price changes for this combination.
  The material is part of a DSD process where prices are controlled by the supplier or a central pricing agreement.
  Customizing settings in the DSD module or pricing control prevent price changes at the store level.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Master Data and Pricing Setup:
  
  Verify the material master data for the material &3.
  Check the supplier &1 and store &2 assignment in the DSD setup.
  Review the pricing procedure and condition records related to this supplier-store-material combination.
  
  
  
  Review Customizing Settings:
  
  Go to the DSD customizing (transaction SPRO) and check the settings related to price maintenance.
  Look for any flags or controls that restrict price changes for certain supplier-store-material combinations.
  
  
  
  Adjust Pricing Control:
  
  If price maintenance is required, adjust the pricing procedure or condition records to allow price changes.
  Alternatively, maintain prices centrally if that is the intended process.
  
  
  
  Consult with Pricing or DSD Process Owner:
  
  Since this is related to DSD and pricing, coordinate with the pricing team or the DSD process owner to understand the intended control mechanism.
  They may provide guidance or authorization to change the price maintenance settings.
  
  
  
  Use Correct Transaction:
  
  Ensure you are using the correct transaction or screen for price maintenance as per the DSD process.
