Hi,

AltCty - Condition formula for alternative calculation type:

It is an alternative formula for the condition type that can be used instead of standard formulas.

For example, let us take the Profit Margin which can be both + / - , so here this routine will help us in generating the value which can be either + or -. Profit margin is not a condition type so it cannot be classified as +ve or -ve in the V/06.Ex.: 950 0 Profit Margin 11. So we assign 11 - Profit Margin.

AltCBV - Alternative formula for condition base value:

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

It is used as a basis to calculate value of the condition type instead of using it from the "FROM" column.

Ex.: Freight - KF00. Freight is calculated based on weight, volume etc. and not on the base price. In pricing there is no entry of weight from which the value can be referred like we do for discounts using base price. We have to get the value from the Material master. In this column we can mention the value as 12 - Gross Weight or 13 - Net Weight.

During pricing, the system will consider the value that is mentioned in this column and determine the freight based on this value.

Suppose we have Net weight: 100 kgs and Gross Weight: 150 kgs. And if we mention 13 in this column then the Freight condition KF00 will be calculated using the weight as 100 kgs.

And both of them are routines written by APABers in VOFM.

Hi Vikas,

Alternative Calculation Type allows you use a formula as an alternative in finding the value of the condition type, instead of standard condition technique. this can be used to calculate complex tax structures.

Condition base value is a concept used in pricing procedure and actual term used is alternate condition base value. This is a formula assigned to a condition type in order to promote an alternate base value for the calculation of the value.

Hope it clears your doubt.
