  • What causes this issue?

    When a sales price is changed (amount change) over the reference price
    (sales price determination type E), the sales price currency of the
    pricing item has to be the same as that of the sales price currency
    entered on the selection screen. This ensures that a sales price is not
    changed by mistake in a different currency. The sales price currency of
    the current pricing item &V1& is not, however, the same as the sales
    price currency &V2& entered.

    System Response

    No change in the sales price amount can be made for this pricing item.

    How to fix this error?

    Repeat the sales price calculation and enter the sales price currency
    of the required pricing item on the selection screen.
