• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WG202 - No price changes worthy of investment read ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WG202 - No price changes worthy of investment read
  
  Cause:
  This message typically occurs in the context of Product Costing or Costing Run in SAP, especially when dealing with price changes or cost estimates. The system is indicating that during the costing or price update process, it did not find any price changes significant enough to justify an update or investment in the costing data.
  In other words, the system compared the current prices with the new prices and found no meaningful difference that would require recalculating or updating the cost estimate.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During a costing run or price update process.
  When the system checks for price changes in materials or components.
  When the price difference is below a configured threshold or no price change is detected.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Price Changes:
  
  Verify if there are actual price changes in the material master or price conditions.
  Use transaction codes like CK13N (Display Cost Estimate) or CK40N (Costing Run) to review costing data.
  
  
  
  Review Threshold Settings:
  
  Sometimes, the system has a threshold for minimum price change to trigger an update.
  Check if this threshold is set too high, causing the system to ignore minor price changes.
  This can be configured in customizing under Costing settings.
  
  
  
  Force Update (if needed):
  
  If you want to force the system to update the costing despite minor price changes, adjust the settings or manually trigger a costing update.
  In costing runs, you can select options to force recalculation.
  
  
  
  Check Material and Price Data:
  
  Ensure that the price master data (e.g., purchasing info records, conditions) is correctly maintained and updated.
  Confirm that the price changes are saved and active.
  
  
  
  Review Logs and Details:
  
  Check the detailed logs of the costing run or price update process to understand which materials or components were evaluated and why no update was triggered.
