  The SAP error message WB2B086, which states "The condition already exists," typically occurs in the context of pricing conditions in SAP, particularly when working with the SAP Sales and Distribution (SD) module or the SAP Pricing module. This error indicates that there is an attempt to create or modify a pricing condition that already exists in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Condition Records: The most common cause of this error is that the condition record you are trying to create or modify already exists in the system for the same key fields (e.g., condition type, customer, material, etc.).
  Incorrect Data Entry: There may be a mistake in the data entry, leading to an attempt to create a condition that is already defined.
  Configuration Issues: Sometimes, configuration settings in the pricing procedure or condition types may lead to this error if they are not set up correctly.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Existing Condition Records:
  
  Use transaction code VK13 (Display Condition) to check if the condition record already exists for the specific condition type, customer, and material.
  If it exists, you may need to modify the existing record instead of creating a new one.

  If you find that the condition record already exists and needs to be updated, use transaction code VK12 (Change Condition) to make the necessary changes.
  
  
  
  Review Input Data:
  
  Ensure that the data you are entering is correct and does not inadvertently match an existing condition record.

  If you suspect a configuration issue, consult with your SAP configuration team to review the pricing procedure and condition types to ensure they are set up correctly.
