• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WS541 - Document &1 is reversal document, no new price determination is possible ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation of the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WS541 - Document &1 is reversal document, no new price determination is possible
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to perform a price determination or pricing-related activity on a document that is a reversal document (i.e., a credit memo or cancellation document created to reverse a previous billing document). In SAP, reversal documents are linked to the original billing documents and do not allow new pricing conditions or price recalculations because they are meant to negate the original transaction.
  
  Explanation:
  
  A reversal document is created to cancel or reverse the effects of an original billing document.
  Since the reversal document is not a new sales transaction but a negation of a previous one, SAP does not allow new price determination or changes to pricing conditions.
  Attempting to trigger pricing or price recalculation on such a document leads to this error.
