Dear Venkat,

If you don't assign the document pricing procedure to the order types system will not determine the pricing procedure while creating sales order with that document type.

Pricing procedure will get determine based on this combination,

Sales areaDocument pricing procedure(Order or billing)Customer pricing procedure-->Pricing procedure.

If you want to redetermine the pricing procedure at billing you need to assigning Document Pricing Procedure to Billing type based on this new pricing procedure will determine while creating invoice.

When create sales order you need to enter document type based on this document type system will check the document pri proc of that document type then iyt checks is there any pricing procedure determined for this document pri proc if available system will execute that pricing procedure in that sales document type.

I hope it will clear for you,

Hi there,

The doc pricing procedure you maintain in the sales order is used in pricing determination OVKK.

Pricing Procedure Determination:

Sales Area + Doc pricing procedure + Customer Pricing procedure. Sales area = Sales org + Dist Channel + Division in which the order is loaded. You find that in sales overview in teh main screen.

Doc pricing procedure is what you assign in VOV8 when defining the sales order.

Customer pricing procedure comes from customer master Sales area data, sales view.

Hi Venkata Ramana

Pricing procedure is determined based on the different elements like Sales org,Dist Cha,Div,Cust pric proce,Docu pricing proce.

Now the importance of Document pricing procedre is in which order type the specific pricing procedure is applicable.The pricing procedure is varid based on the permutations and combinations of Customer pricing procedure and document pricing procedure.

There are different business processes like Contract which is one order type,Scheduling agrement which is one order type,Normal sales order which is one order type.You can not have one pricing for all these order types.For example in contracts (purchase of bulk quantity on the basis of agrement,there will be special price) business process, the price is different than the normal sales order.So in this scenario,for getting different pricing we need to have different document pricing procedure.

Hope this helps you.

Hi,

In Oil business most of the time when material is leaving from vendor premises same price is applied.

It may possible that when you booked order price was 100

during invoicing price is 105.

So SAp provided flexibility for user if neededto have diifrent PP at sales orderand billing level.

Hello,

As you are aware the document pricing procedure plays a very vital part in pricing procedure determination. It is done based on the assignments of :

Sales Area + Customer Pricing procedure + Document Pricing Procedure + Pricing procedure.

document prcing procedure is maintinaed in billing type also, it is becasue you can carry out new pricing in billing document level also.

Dear Venkata Ramana

It is bcoz, you would be having different Document types for each and every scenario and for the same customer. For all those scenarios, how system will know that which pricing procedure should determine in sale order.

So while creating new sale document type in VOV8, you can also differentiate the pricing procedure by assigning some value there.

In most of the cases, for one customer, you would be having different sale order type and for those, you have to define which pricing procedure should flow in sale order. It is based on the assignment you do in OVKK.

thanks

During pricing, the system determines the pricing procedure by taking into account

The sales area

The pricing procedure key in the header of the sales document type

The pricing procedure key in the customer master record

The pricing procedure determines how the system carries out pricing for a particular sales document (for example, which pricing condition records it accesses and in which sequence).
