  Common causes include:
  
  The purchase price value entered is zero, negative, or otherwise outside the allowed range.
  The price value format is incorrect (e.g., wrong decimal places, non-numeric characters).
  The price value violates business rules or validation checks configured in the system.

  Review Pricing Conditions:
  
  Check the condition records for the material/vendor combination.
  Make sure the condition values are valid and active.
  
  
  
  Validate Data Entry:
  
  If the price is entered manually, confirm that the user input is correct.
  If the price is coming from an external system or interface, check the data mapping and transfer process.
  
  
  
  Check Custom Validations:
  
  Review any user-exits, BADIs, or enhancements related to purchase price validation.
  Adjust or debug these if they are causing the rejection of valid prices.
  
  
  
  System Settings:
  
  Verify currency and decimal settings in the system.
  Check if any price limits or tolerances are configured that might reject the value.
