• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WSD_MESSAGE117 - Enter pricing element ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WSD_MESSAGE117: Enter pricing element
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when a required pricing element is missing in a pricing procedure during the sales document processing (e.g., sales order, billing document). The system expects a specific pricing element (condition type) to be entered or determined, but it is not found or not maintained.
  In other words, the pricing procedure assigned to the sales document requires a particular condition type (pricing element) to be present, but it is either not entered manually or not automatically determined by the system.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During sales order creation or change (VA01/VA02).
  During billing document creation (VF01).
  When the pricing procedure expects a mandatory condition type that is missing.
  When condition records for a required pricing element are not maintained or not valid for the transaction.
  
  
  Common Causes:
  
  Missing condition record for the required pricing element.
  Pricing procedure requires a condition type that is not maintained or not applicable.
  Incorrect or incomplete configuration of the pricing procedure.
  User did not enter a mandatory pricing element manually when automatic determination failed.
  Condition exclusion or access sequence issues causing the system not to find the pricing element.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Pricing Procedure:
  
  Verify the pricing procedure assigned to the sales document type and sales area.
  Identify which pricing element (condition type) is causing the error.
  
  
  
  Check Condition Records:
  
  Use transaction VK13 to check if condition records exist for the required pricing element.
  If missing, create condition records using VK11.
  
  
  
  Check Access Sequence:
  
  Ensure the access sequence for the condition type is correctly maintained and can find valid condition records.
  
  
  
  Manual Entry:
  
  If the pricing element is set to manual entry, ensure the user enters the value during sales order or billing document creation.
  
  
  
  Pricing Procedure Configuration:
  
  In transaction V/08, check if the pricing element is set as mandatory.
  If the pricing element is not required, consider removing it from the pricing procedure or making it optional.
  
  
  
  Debug Pricing:
  
  Use transaction VA02 or VF02 and go to the pricing screen.
  Use the pricing analysis (F5) to see why the pricing element is missing.
  Check condition determination logs to identify issues.
  
  
  
  Check Condition Exclusion:
  
  Sometimes condition exclusion or condition supplements cause the pricing element not to appear.
  Review condition exclusion groups in the pricing procedure.
