  SAP Error Message:
  
  WPM_MSG_OFR_PRM_INTG050 Missing promotion type
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when a promotion or offer in SAP is being processed or created without specifying a required Promotion Type. The system expects a valid promotion type to correctly classify and handle the promotion logic, and if this is missing, it triggers this error.
  Typically, this happens in the context of SAP CRM or SAP Hybris Marketing when defining or integrating promotions/offers, or in SAP ERP Sales and Distribution when working with pricing conditions or promotion schemes.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Promotion Type is a key attribute that defines the nature of the promotion (e.g., discount, free goods, rebate, etc.).
  The system uses this type to apply the correct business logic and pricing calculations.
  If the promotion type is not maintained or incorrectly maintained, the system cannot proceed.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Promotion Master Data:
  
  Go to the promotion or offer master data.
  Verify that the Promotion Type field is filled in correctly.
  If missing, assign the appropriate promotion type.
  
  
  
  Review Integration Settings:
  
  If the promotion is integrated from another system (e.g., SAP CRM to ERP), check the integration mappings.
  Ensure that the promotion type is correctly mapped and transferred.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  In customizing (SPRO), verify the configuration for promotion types.
  Make sure the promotion type used is active and valid in the system.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency:
  
  Run consistency checks on promotion data.
  Correct any incomplete or inconsistent entries.
  
  
  
  User Input:
  
  If the error occurs during manual entry, instruct users to always select a valid promotion type.
