Cause
In the product master data, under tab Planning, for corresponding planning area, there are Procurement Lead Time and Goods Receipt Processing Time maintained.
In purchase proposal, Planned Order Date = Availability Date - Procurement Lead Time - Goods Receipt Processing Time
There is no valid list price on the Planned Order Date.
Resolution
The purchase proposal should have an Availability Date whose calculated planned order date falling in between the valid from and valid to date of corresponding list price.
