Hi Friends,

This is for those members who are violating the rules of engagement.

Instead of providing links or F1 help or copy paste from documentation, it is better to explain it in our own words. Else, should guide the member on 'how to search the forum or google'. If it is explained in our own words as per our understanding, it gives a clarity on the concept.

Provide links only if your answer is there in that thread. Else, quote whose message in that thread is useful.

If we are copy pasting the details from the documentation or F1 help, please mention the source details.

Thanks,

Ravi

Alternative conditon type:

specifies that the system is to use the formula represented in this column as an alternative in finding the value of the condition type, rather than

by using the standard condition technique. This can be used to calculate complex tax scenarios.

Condition base value:

Formula for determining the condition basis as an alternative to the standard

Example

An absolute header discount is, for example, distributed in the standard system according to the cumulative value of the items.

If the system, however, distributes the absolute header discount according to volume, a header discount of $30 results in the following discounts:

Item Value Volume Discount

Stand. disc. Volume disc.

1 $1000 2 cbm $20 $10

2 $500 4 cbm $10 $20

Thanks.
