  • What causes this issue?

    Depending on personal settings for "Copy purchase prices" the prices of
    purchasing info records will not be copied from the source of the copy
    to the target (new assignment). If you flag "Copy purchase prices", the
    prices of purchasing info records will be copied into the new purchasing
    info record. This is only proposed if there is not already an existing
    purchasing info record. You are able to overwrite this value before
    saving the purchasing info records. If there is already an existing info
    record for the newly created assignment, the price of the existing
    purchasing info record will not be overwritten, regardless of the
    setting of the flag.
    For example:
    You move store_01 from vendor_01 to vendor_02 and there are articles
    article_01 and article_02 belonging to store_01; for article_01, an info
    record for vendor_02 already exists, and for article_02, no info record
    for vendor_02 exists.

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

    "Copy purchase prices" is flagged:
    For article_02/vendor_02 an info record needs to be created and the
    fields of the info record are filled with proposals. The price of
    article_02/vendor_01 which is the source of the copy/move will be used
    as a proposal, which can be overwritten by the user.
    For article_01/vendor_02 the existing info record will not be changed.
    "Copy purchase prices" is not flagged:
    For article_02/vendor_02 an info record needs to be created and the
    fields of the info record are filled with proposals. There is no price
    proposal for the info record.
    For article_01/vendor_02 the existing info record will not be changed

  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W_DSD_01022 - According to personal settings prices for info records will not be copied ?

    SAP Error Message:
    W_DSD_01022 – "According to personal settings prices for info records will not be copied"


    Cause:

    This warning message appears during the creation or copying of purchasing info records (e.g., in transaction ME11 or ME12) when the system checks the user's personal settings related to price copying. The message indicates that, based on the user's personal settings, the system will not copy the prices from the source info record to the new or changed info record.

    This behavior is controlled by a user-specific setting that determines whether prices should be copied automatically when info records are copied or created.


    Explanation:

    • The system allows users to control whether prices from an existing info record should be copied when creating or changing another info record.
    • If the user has set their personal settings to not copy prices, the system issues this warning to inform the user that prices will not be copied.
    • This is not an error but a warning, so the process can continue without copying prices.

    Solution:

    1. Check and adjust personal settings:

      • Go to the SAP Easy Access screen.
      • Navigate to System ? User Profile ? Own Data (transaction code: SU3).
      • Select the Parameters tab.
      • Look for a parameter related to price copying in info records. This parameter might be specific to your SAP system or module (e.g., purchasing).
      • If you find a parameter controlling price copying (e.g., ME_COPY_PRICES or similar), change its value to enable price copying.
      • Save your changes.
    2. Alternatively, check the info record copy settings:

      • When copying info records, check if there is an option or checkbox to copy prices.
      • Make sure this option is selected if you want prices to be copied.
    3. If you do not want to copy prices:

      • You can ignore this warning message.
      • The system will proceed without copying prices, and you can enter prices manually later.

    Related Information:

    • This message is a warning (W_), not an error, so it does not stop the process.
    • The message is related to user-specific settings and preferences.
    • The exact parameter name or setting might vary depending on SAP version or customization.
    • If you are unsure about the parameter or setting, consult your SAP Basis or Purchasing module consultant.
    • This message helps prevent unintentional copying of prices, which might be outdated or incorrect.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Message W_DSD_01022 – Prices for info records will not be copied according to personal settings
    Cause User's personal settings prevent automatic copying of prices when copying info records
    Effect Prices are not copied; user is warned but process continues
