  Error Message: WS434 - Document conditions do not exist in the database
  
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs when the system tries to access or process pricing or condition records related to a document (such as a sales order, billing document, or purchase order), but the required condition records are missing or not maintained in the database.
  More specifically:
  
  The pricing procedure assigned to the document requires certain condition types.
  These condition records (e.g., discounts, surcharges, taxes) are not found in the condition tables for the given key combination (such as customer/material/pricing date).
  The system cannot find any valid condition records to apply, leading to this error.
  
  
  Common Scenarios:
  
  Pricing conditions have not been maintained for the relevant combination of keys (e.g., customer/material).
  Condition records were deleted or not created.
  Incorrect pricing procedure or condition types assigned to the document.
  Condition records exist but are not valid for the document date or other key fields.
  Custom enhancements or user exits that manipulate conditions incorrectly.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Condition Records:
  
  Use transaction VK13 (Display Condition Records) to verify if the required condition records exist for the relevant condition types.
  Check the validity period, key combinations (customer, material, sales org, etc.), and ensure they cover the document data.
  
  
  
  Verify Pricing Procedure:
  
  Check the pricing procedure assigned to the sales document type or billing type.
  Use transaction V/08 or V/07 to review the pricing procedure and condition types.
  Ensure that the condition types required by the pricing procedure have valid condition records.
  
  
  
  Check Document Data:
  
  Verify the document data (customer, material, sales org, date) to ensure it matches the condition record keys.
  Sometimes, incorrect or missing master data can cause the system to fail in finding conditions.
  
  
  
  Recreate or Maintain Condition Records:
  
  If condition records are missing, create them using VK11 (Create Condition Records).
  Ensure the records are valid for the document date and key fields.
  
  
  
  Check Custom Code:
  
  If there are user exits or BAdIs related to pricing (e.g., USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMP, USEREXIT_PRICING_CHECK), verify that they do not delete or incorrectly manipulate condition records.
  
  
  
  Debugging:
  
  If the issue persists, debugging the pricing routine or condition determination can help identify why the system cannot find the conditions.
