• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WAB027 - Only conditions are posted ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WAB027 - Only conditions are posted
  
  Cause:
  The error message WAB027 - Only conditions are posted typically occurs in the context of SAP Sales and Distribution (SD) or Pricing when a document (such as a billing document or sales order) contains only condition records (pricing elements) but no actual line items or relevant postings.
  In other words, the system detects that only condition records (like discounts, surcharges, taxes) are present without any corresponding base document line items or postings. This situation is usually not valid because conditions are meant to be applied to line items, and posting only conditions without any base item is inconsistent.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During billing document creation or posting.
  When pricing conditions exist but no actual sales order or delivery item is posted.
  When the system tries to post accounting documents but finds no base line items, only conditions.
  Sometimes during integration between SD and FI (Financial Accounting), if the document structure is incomplete.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Document Line Items:
  
  Verify that the sales document or billing document contains valid line items.
  Ensure that the document is not empty except for condition records.
  
  
  
  Review Pricing Procedure:
  
  Confirm that the pricing procedure is correctly assigned and that conditions are linked to valid items.
  Make sure that the pricing conditions are not created independently without base items.
  
  
  
  Check Customizing:
  
  Review the configuration in transaction codes like V/06 (Condition Types), V/08 (Pricing Procedures), and related SD pricing customizing.
  Ensure that condition types are correctly set up to be item-related and not header-only if that is the intended behavior.
  
  
  
  Document Flow and Integration:
  
  Check the document flow to ensure preceding documents (sales order, delivery) are correctly created and referenced.
  Verify that the integration between SD and FI is working properly and that the posting logic is consistent.
  
  
  
  Debugging / Logs:
  
  Use transaction VF03 to display the billing document and check the line items.
  Use transaction VF02 to edit and correct the billing document if possible.
  Check application logs (SLG1) for more detailed error information.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes:
  
  Search for SAP Notes related to WAB027 for any known issues or patches.

  Common Scenario:
  
  A billing document is created with pricing conditions but no actual sales order or delivery items, causing the system to reject posting.
  
  
  
  
  Summary:
  WAB027 - Only conditions are posted means the system found only pricing conditions without any base document line items to post. The solution is to ensure that the document contains valid line items and that conditions are properly linked to these items before posting.
