• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_APC123 - The prices are different ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WRF_APC123: The prices are different
  
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs in SAP when there is a mismatch between the prices in the system during a pricing or settlement process. Specifically, it often arises in the context of Product Costing, Production Orders, or Settlement where the system expects consistent pricing but finds discrepancies between:
  
  The planned price and the actual price,
  The price in the order and the price in the settlement rule,
  Or between different price conditions in the pricing procedure.
  
  In other words, the system detects that the prices used in different parts of the process do not match, which can cause inconsistencies in cost calculation or settlement.
  
  Common Scenarios:
  
  During settlement of production orders or process orders, the system compares the prices in the order and the settlement rule.
  When price conditions in the costing variant or pricing procedure are inconsistent.
  When manual price changes have been made that conflict with system-calculated prices.
  When material master price and order price differ unexpectedly.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Price Conditions:
  
  Review the pricing procedure and condition records involved in the process.
  Ensure that the prices in the order and the settlement rule are consistent.
  
  
  
  Verify Material Master Data:
  
  Check the material master for correct price control (Standard Price 'S' or Moving Average Price 'V').
  Confirm that the price in the material master matches the expected price in the order.
  
  
  
  Review Order and Settlement Rule:
  
  Check the production or process order for any manual price changes.
  Verify the settlement rule and ensure it uses the correct receiver and price.
  
  
  
  Recalculate or Adjust Prices:
  
  If prices are inconsistent, adjust them to align.
  You may need to reprice the order or update the settlement rule.
  
  
  
  Check Customizing:
  
  Review the configuration in Controlling (CO) and Product Costing (CO-PC) related to pricing and settlement.
  Ensure that the pricing procedure and settlement profile are correctly set up.
  
  
  
  Use SAP Notes and Documentation:
  
  Search for SAP Notes related to WRF_APC123 for any known bugs or patches.
  Consult SAP Help Portal or OSS for detailed troubleshooting.
