  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WPRO_XI_PROXY115 - Element &2 (value &1) must not be specified for discount type &3 ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    WPRO_XI_PROXY115 Element &2 (value &1) must not be specified for discount type &3


    Cause:

    This error occurs during the processing of a proxy message (often related to pricing or billing documents) when an element (field) is provided in the message payload that is not allowed or expected for the specified discount type.

    • &2 = Name of the element/field that was incorrectly specified.
    • &1 = The value of that element.
    • &3 = The discount type for which the element should not be specified.

    In other words, the system expects that for the given discount type, certain fields should not be filled or sent. If they are, the system raises this error to indicate a data inconsistency or incorrect message structure.


    Typical Scenario:

    • You are sending or processing a pricing or billing document via XI/PI proxy.
    • The discount type (e.g., a particular kind of discount like "percentage discount", "fixed amount discount", etc.) has specific rules about which fields can be populated.
    • The message contains an element that is not valid for that discount type.
    • The system validates the message and throws this error to prevent incorrect pricing or billing data.

    Solution:

    1. Check the Discount Type Configuration:

      • Verify the discount type (&3) in the system (transaction codes like V/06 or pricing condition types in V/06 or V/07).
      • Understand which fields are allowed or disallowed for this discount type.
    2. Review the Proxy Message or IDoc:

      • Inspect the proxy message or IDoc payload that is being sent.
      • Identify the element (&2) and its value (&1) that is causing the issue.
      • Remove or correct the element if it is not allowed for the discount type.
    3. Adjust the Mapping or Data Source:

      • If the message is generated via middleware (SAP PI/PO or other integration tools), check the mapping logic.
      • Ensure that the element is only populated when valid for the discount type.
      • Implement conditional mapping or filtering to exclude the element for the discount types that do not allow it.
    4. Test the Corrected Message:

      • After adjustments, resend the message and verify that the error no longer occurs.

    Related Information:

    • This error is related to pricing and billing document processing in SAP, especially when integrating via SAP XI/PI proxies.
    • The validation is part of SAP's standard checks to ensure data consistency and correctness in pricing conditions.
    • Similar errors may occur if the condition records or pricing procedures are not aligned with the data being sent.
    • Check SAP Notes or OSS messages if the error persists after correcting the data.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error Element &2 (value &1) must not be specified for discount type &3
    Cause Invalid element sent for a discount type that does not allow it
    Solution Remove or correct the element in the message for the discount type; adjust mapping
    Where to Check Discount type config (V/06), proxy message payload, middleware mapping
    Related To Pricing, billing, SAP XI/PI proxy integration
