• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_APC584 - Calculated markup 1 &1 is greater than max. markup &2; change your entry ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WRF_APC584
  
  Text: Calculated markup 1 &1 is greater than max. markup &2; change your entry
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs in SAP when the system calculates a markup value during pricing or costing processes (often in Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) or Variant Configuration scenarios) that exceeds the predefined maximum allowable markup limit.
  
  The system compares the calculated markup (parameter &1) against the maximum allowed markup (parameter &2).
  If the calculated markup is greater than the maximum allowed markup, the system throws this error to prevent unrealistic or unauthorized pricing.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Markup Settings:
  
  Review the maximum markup values configured in the system.
  These values might be maintained in pricing procedures, condition records, or master data related to pricing or costing.
  
  
  
  Adjust the Input Data:
  
  Verify the input values (costs, base prices, etc.) that lead to the markup calculation.
  Correct any incorrect or outlier values that might cause an unusually high markup.
  
  
  
  Increase the Maximum Markup Limit (if appropriate):
  
  If the business scenario justifies a higher markup, update the maximum markup limit in the relevant configuration.
  This could be done in pricing condition records, variant configuration profiles, or APO settings depending on the module.
  
  
  
  Consult Pricing or Costing Experts:
  
  Engage with pricing or costing specialists to understand if the markup calculation logic or limits need adjustment.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  This message is common in SAP APO (Advanced Planning and Optimization), Variant Configuration, or Pricing modules where markups are calculated dynamically.
  The parameters &1 and &2 in the message represent:
  
  &1 = Calculated markup value
  &2 = Maximum allowed markup value
  
  
  Check transaction codes related to pricing (e.g., VK11, VK12) or costing (e.g., CK11N) depending on where the error occurs.
  Review user exits or custom logic if markup calculations are enhanced or customized.
  
  
  Summary:
  WRF_APC584 indicates that the system-calculated markup exceeds the allowed maximum. To resolve, verify and correct input data, adjust maximum markup limits if justified, and ensure pricing/costing configurations align with business rules.
