Hello EveryBody,
We need to send out an automated Price Catalogue to one of our customers every week covering the pricing for the next week or any other changes. Only one date can be entered in the price determination tab of the catalogue in VPRICAT. If I leave this blank then the validity of the material in the catalog is supposed to be taken but it looks like only one price is included in the message?
How would it be possible to include several prices (in case there is a price change say tomorrow we need to include today's price and tomorrow;s one in the same transmission).
We have just this month upgraded to SAP EEC6 and this is now an imporant requirement. Any help would be appeciated on what we can do to get round this limitation.
Thank You

Hello Gordon Blair,
The standard SAP transaction where you can change the conditions types is the VK12. Here you can change the validity prices each week and write the new prices, for all the prices, discounts and surcharges. Now, when you have updated the conditions types there is a standard SAP transaction (V/LD) where you can have a price catalogue, this one is the u201CExecute Pricing Reportu201D, here you can select 31 kinds of standards reports for prices. For example if you select the number 17, this is for u201CDiscounts and Surcharges by Customeru201D and filling all the relevant fields you can get the required information. Also, inside you can have a report, go to u201CListu201D in the menu, and then u201CPrintu201D to get it.
Hope it be helpful

Hi Gordon,
I have a work around for this (though it is not a robust solution, it might work). It increases the workload of people who maitain pricing condition records in your org.
You may create another pricing condition for future prices.
Lets say ZPR0 is your actual pricing condition and ZPR1 is new condition record for future prices (make sure ZPR1 is not used in any pricing procedures).
Now if ZPR0 is $100 for current week and $95 from next week on, ask your master data team to maintain these two condition records normally and ask them to maintain ZPR1 with $95 with current validity. After doing this please include ZPR1 in requirements profile assigned to price catalogue. This will ensure transmission of both prices with same validity date.
Now all you have to do is to change validity date of ZPR1 (by reading valid from date of ZPR0 condition record with valid from date in next week) by using relevant customer functions in price catalogue transmission program (plenty of customer functions are available in this program)
while transmitting make sure you will transmit ZPR1 in future price for next week (this can be achieved in EDI mapping)
Hope that helps.
Thanks
