• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WR034 - No old retail price exists in the conditions for material & ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WR034 - No old retail price exists in the conditions for material &
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs in SAP Retail Pricing when the system tries to update or reference an old retail price condition for a material, but no such old price condition record exists in the condition tables for that material. Essentially, the system expects to find a previous retail price (old price) to compare or update, but it cannot find any.
  This typically happens during price changes, price updates, or when running price change programs where the system needs to know the previous price to calculate differences, discounts, or to maintain price history.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During price change runs (e.g., transaction WRTS or price update programs).
  When trying to update or delete a retail price condition record that does not exist.
  When the system expects an old price for comparison but the material has no prior price condition maintained.
  Possibly during mass price updates or condition record maintenance in Retail Pricing.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Condition Records:
  
  Verify if the retail price condition records exist for the material in question.
  Use transaction VK13 (Display Condition) or WRTV (Display Retail Price) to check if the old retail price condition exists.
  If no old price exists, you may need to create an initial retail price condition record.
  
  
  
  Create Initial Retail Price:
  
  If the material has no retail price condition, create one using WRTV or VK31 (Create Condition).
  Ensure the condition type used for retail price (e.g., PR00 or a custom retail price condition type) is maintained properly.
  
  
  
  Check Pricing Procedure and Condition Tables:
  
  Confirm that the pricing procedure assigned to the material and sales area includes the correct retail price condition types.
  Make sure the condition tables and access sequences are correctly set up to find the old price.
  
  
  
  Review Price Change Process:
  
  If running a price change program, ensure that the program parameters and selection criteria are correct.
  Sometimes, the program tries to update prices for materials without existing prices, causing this error.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency:
  
  Run consistency checks on pricing data.
  If necessary, delete erroneous or incomplete condition records and recreate them properly.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes:
  
  Check SAP Notes for any known issues related to retail pricing and this error message.
  Sometimes patches or support packages address such issues.

The solution is to ensure that the material has an existing retail price condition record before attempting price changes or updates. Creating or correcting the initial retail price condition record usually resolves the issue.
