    SAP Error Message WR049
    Message Text:
    Material &1: old value at retail and new value at retail are the same
    
    Cause
    This error occurs when you attempt to update the retail price of a material, but the new retail price you are trying to set is exactly the same as the current (old) retail price stored in the system.
    In other words, the system detects no change in the retail price value, so it prevents the update because it is redundant.
    
    When Does It Occur?
    
    Typically during price updates in Retail Pricing or Merchandise Management.
    When using transaction codes or programs that update retail prices (e.g., price maintenance transactions).
    When trying to post or save a price change that does not actually change the price.
    
    
    Solution
    
    Check the new retail price value: Verify that the new retail price you are entering is actually different from the current retail price.
