exclusion indicatior

You can allow for exceptions where you want to include discounts in spite of the condition exclusion indicator (for a particular discount condition you can specify a requirement that applies the discount ONLY when the indicator is set)

Ex:

The system can exclude conditions so that they are not taken into account during pricing.

For example:

Material 4711 costs 150 USD. Some customers receive a discount of 10 USD per 100 pieces.

However, a specific customer can buy the material for 100 USD. Since this is a particularly good price, the customer should not also have a discount of 10 USD per 100 pieces. Therefore, this discount is to be excluded from pricing.

okay..

is it used to stop searching the particular condition record if it find the condition record in the first access sequence.

Pls clarify..

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

Even it finds the Condition record, It has to perform the price calculation defined in the Pricing procedure.

at that time it will check what to exclude & what not to exclude in the background.

exclusion:

You need to exclude some conditions through Exclusion Indicator

Which prevents the use of too many condition types in the Price detemination procees.

exclusion indicator:

In the Access sequence definition (SPRO->Materials Management->Purchasing->Conditions->Define Price Determination->Define Access Sequences), you have the list of condition tables in the order of more specific to less specific tables. If you check the Exclusive check box, the search will be stopped on finding a condition record.

If you do not want discount on certain materials, do not maintain discount condition records for those materials.

can u pls tell in brief bout this condition exclusion?

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

Condition Exclusion is specifically used in SD

conditon Exclution means:

system can use condition exclusion to select the best price or discount in six different ways:

Selecting the best condition record of a particular condition type from within one exclusion group

Selecting the most unsuitable condition from within one exclusion group

Selecting the best condition record for a condition type

Selecting the most unsuitable condition record for a condition type

Selecting the best conditions from different exclusion groups

Excluding all condition types in the second exclusion group if a particular condition type in the first exclusion group exists in the document
