How a condition type works as Positive or Negative for Discount

Former Member

Dear All,

Sorry to post a basic question.

I am bit confused how the system recognizes the discounts and surcharges seperately.

Because Discounts should be deducted from the basice price and surcharges needs to be added with the basic price.

But in the "Condition type" we maintained "Plus/Minus" field as "Positive and Negative" and "Condition Class" as Discount and Surcharges".

With this settings, how system is identifying whether it is a discount or surcharge?

Because in the both the fields (Plus/Minus and Condition class) it is defined either it may be a positive value or negative value.

Kindly clarify.

Regards,

Mullairaja

In your pricing procedure, you would note Account Keys like

=> ERF for Freight Revenue,

=> ERL for Sales Revenue and

=> ERS for Sales Deductions

For the above Account Keys, you would be assignment a relevant G/L Account in VKOA settings.

thanks

hi,

this is to inform you that,

the basic thumb rule of Pricing in SAP is:

basic -discounts +frieght +taxes.

now coming to your question:

if you dont give any thing in Plus/minus field then - system automatically considers that it has to add the condition type or its a surcharge.

Eg: PR00 the condition classification is setted as B - price where it is setted in Plus/minus nothing, so this adds

where in as in K004, KF00 & MWST as D the condition classification is setted as A - discount or surcharge & in Plus/minus as X that means negative this will always decrease the value as discount.

hope this clears your issue.

Dear Mr.Balaji,

This doesn't clears my doubt.

Say for example, I take HA00 and HD00. HA00 is a discount and HD00 is a freight. HA00 should be deducted and HD00 should be added. Is it correct.

But if you look at the settings, "Plus/Minus" field is maintained as "Positive and Negative" for both HA00 and HD00.

Also "Condition Class" field maintained as "Discounts and Surcharges" which is common for both HA00 and HD00.

But how the system deducting the HA00 and adding HD00. \

Please calrify.

Hi Raja,

Condition type itself is a vast subject in Pricing. There are various aspects which will take care when calculating price conditions.

In given example, Condition category plays role here.

because the cond cat is "Freight". These calculations are in-built in programs.

Dear Mr.Raja,

this is to inform you that here in

HA00 - is % condition type and HD00 is Frieght condition type but here for HD00 - frieght condition 'F' is assigned.

even condition class is same for HA00 & HD00, but there might be some some automatic programs which might trigger and will show its functionality as POSITIVE.
