  SAP Error Message:
  
  WG314 – "PO value for purchase order & could not be determined correctly"
  
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs when the system is unable to determine or calculate the correct value of the Purchase Order (PO) during processing. The reasons can include:
  
  Incomplete or inconsistent data in the PO header or item level (e.g., missing price, quantity, or currency).
  Incorrect or missing conditions in the pricing procedure.
  Currency or exchange rate issues that prevent the system from calculating the PO value.
  Custom enhancements or user exits that interfere with the standard PO value determination.
  Data inconsistencies between related documents (e.g., purchase requisition, contract).
  Authorization or configuration issues that restrict access to necessary data for value determination.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the WG314 error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check PO Data Completeness:
  
  Verify that all mandatory fields (price, quantity, currency) are correctly maintained in the PO.
  Ensure that the PO items have valid pricing conditions and that the pricing procedure is correctly assigned.
  
  
  
  Review Pricing Procedure:

  Currency and Exchange Rate:
  
  Verify that the currency of the PO is correctly maintained.
  Check if the exchange rate is available and valid for the PO date.
  
  
  
  Check for Custom Code:
  
  If there are user exits, BADIs, or enhancements related to PO processing, review them for errors or logic that might cause incorrect value determination.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency:
  
  Ensure that related documents (e.g., purchase requisitions, contracts) are consistent and correctly referenced.
  
  
  
  Authorization and Configuration:
