  SAP Error Message WR073
  Message Text:
  
  No retail value exists: partial revaluation not possible
  
  Cause
  This error occurs during the partial revaluation process in SAP Retail when the system attempts to revalue an article or material, but it cannot find a valid retail value for that article. The retail value is essential for the revaluation process because SAP Retail uses it to calculate the new value of stock based on retail prices.
  Typical causes include:
  
  The article does not have a retail price maintained in the system.
  The retail price is missing for the relevant period or price group.
  The retail price master data is incomplete or not updated.
  The retail price is zero or invalid.
  The article is not assigned to a retail price group or relevant pricing condition.
  
  
  Explanation
  In SAP Retail, partial revaluation is a process where the system recalculates the value of stock based on changes in retail prices or cost prices. The system needs the retail price to determine the new value of the stock. If the retail price is missing, the system cannot perform the partial revaluation and throws the WR073 error.
  
  Solution
  To resolve the WR073 error, you need to ensure that a valid retail price exists for the article in question:
  
  
  Check Retail Price Master Data:
  
  Verify that the retail price is maintained for the article in the relevant price group and period.
  Use transaction codes like WRTD (Maintain Retail Prices) or check pricing conditions in VK11/VK12 if applicable.
  
  
  
  Maintain Retail Price:
  
  If missing, create or update the retail price for the article.
  Ensure the retail price is valid for the date range and price group used in the revaluation.
  
  
  
  Check Article Assignment:
  
  Confirm that the article is assigned to the correct retail price group.
  Check article master data (transaction MM42 or WZ01) for correct pricing group assignment.
  
  
  
  Verify Pricing Conditions:
  
  Ensure that pricing conditions relevant for retail price calculation are maintained and active.
  
  
  
  Run Revaluation Again:
  
  After correcting the retail price data, rerun the partial revaluation process.
