  SAP Error Message: WH063 - Date of price change missing
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to post or process a goods movement, invoice, or any transaction involving material valuation or price changes, but the system cannot find a valid date of price change for the material in the material master or the relevant price change records.
  In SAP, when a material's price changes, the system expects a valid date on which the price change is effective. If this date is missing or not maintained properly, the system cannot determine the correct valuation price for the material at the time of the transaction, leading to this error.
  
  When does it typically occur?
  
  During goods receipt or invoice verification when the system tries to determine the price for the material.
  When price changes are maintained in the material master or in the price change history but the effective date is missing.
  When using moving average price or standard price valuation and the system needs to know the date of the price change to calculate the correct price.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Price Data:
  
  Go to transaction MM02 (Change Material).
  Navigate to the Accounting 1 or Costing 2 views.
  Verify if the Price Change Date (or relevant price change fields) is maintained correctly.
  If missing, maintain the correct date when the price change became effective.
  
  
  
  Maintain Price Change History:
  
  Use transaction MR21 (Price Change) to enter or update the price change for the material.
  Ensure that the effective date of the price change is entered correctly.
  
  
  
  Check Valuation Data:
  
  In case of moving average price, check if the system has the correct valuation data for the date of the transaction.
  If necessary, update or correct the valuation data.
  
  
  
  Reprocess the Transaction:
  
  After maintaining the correct date, try to post or process the transaction again.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  The error is related to inventory valuation and price control in SAP MM (Materials Management) and FI (Financial Accounting).
  Proper maintenance of price change dates is crucial for accurate inventory valuation and financial reporting.
  If you are using standard price valuation, the system expects a standard price and its effective date.
  For moving average price, the system calculates the price based on past transactions, but price changes must still be recorded properly.
  Sometimes, this error can also occur if there is a mismatch between the posting date and the price change date.
