  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_PPW898 - Org. set &1 has do price activation levels; save was cancelled ?

    The SAP error message:

    WRF_PPW898 Org. set &1 has do price activation levels; save was cancelled

    typically occurs in the context of Pricing in SAP (especially in Sales and Distribution - SD module) when working with Organizational Sets and Price Activation Levels.


    Meaning / Cause

    • The message indicates that the Organizational Set (Org. set) identified by &1 (a placeholder for the actual organizational set name or ID) already has price activation levels assigned or maintained.
    • Because price activation levels are already defined for this organizational set, the system does not allow saving changes that would conflict with or overwrite these existing price activation levels.
    • This is a safeguard to prevent inconsistent or conflicting pricing configurations.

    In other words, you are trying to save or modify an organizational set that already has price activation levels assigned, and the system is preventing the save to avoid data inconsistency.


    When does this happen?

    • When maintaining or changing organizational sets in transaction V/06 (or related configuration transactions).
    • When trying to delete or modify organizational sets that are linked to price activation levels.
    • When activating or deactivating pricing levels for organizational units.

    Solution / How to resolve

    1. Check existing price activation levels:

      • Go to transaction V/06 (Maintain Organizational Sets).
      • Identify the organizational set &1 mentioned in the error.
      • Check if price activation levels are assigned to this organizational set.
    2. Remove or adjust price activation levels:

      • If you want to modify or delete the organizational set, first remove the price activation levels assigned to it.
      • This can be done in the pricing configuration where price activation levels are maintained (e.g., in transaction V/07 or related pricing configuration transactions).
      • Remove or reassign the price activation levels so that the organizational set no longer has active price activation levels.
    3. Save changes after cleanup:

      • After removing the price activation levels, try saving the organizational set changes again.
      • The system should now allow the save without error.
    4. If you want to keep price activation levels:

      • You may need to adjust your changes to the organizational set so that they do not conflict with the existing price activation levels.
      • Consult your pricing configuration requirements to ensure consistency.

    Additional Information

    • Price Activation Levels in SAP SD are used to control at which organizational level (e.g., sales organization, distribution channel, division) pricing is activated or valid.
    • Organizational sets group organizational units for pricing purposes.
    • The system enforces consistency between organizational sets and price activation levels to avoid pricing errors during sales order processing.
