Line item pricing based on total value of the order

[Former Member]

Hi,

We need to charge as a separate line item (material) 'Insurance' as a % based on the total value of the order less one line item. Our orders are created on the web and posted via a BAPI.

(a) depending on where the customer is located, we charge a certain added shipping cost.

(b) the customer has the choice to ask for insurance or not.

The actual order may be 10 lines totaling $1,000 and due to location, the BAPI slaps on an added line item of $100. If the customer chose the insurance option, the BAPI needs to slap on another line item whose value would be, say 2% of the total order, i.e. 2% of 1000 (instead of on 1000+100). Of course, if the customer doesn't choose this option he is not charges this extra line and further if the customer is not in the particular region, the 100 charge may also not be there.

The 2% can vary time to time so needs to be driven by a condition record based on %.

How can we achieve this in the pricing procedure? The logic of how the BAPI will function is clear to us, we are stuck on the pricing procedure configuration.

Glad to answer any further questions you may need for clarifications.

Many thanks!

Ideally insurance would be levied on end customer based on Inco Terms like CIF, DDU etc.,

So you can have an access sequence for which you can make use of tables like 033 & 034 in V/07. In VK11, for this combination, maintain the required insurance percent.

In condition type V/06, for this condition type, maintain "C" for Manual entries, since you have indicated that customer has the choice. Otherwise, this can be populated automatically in sale order.

Similarly, for shipment cost also, you can have the Inco2 as one of the combination so that based on region, this condition type will be populated in sale order. If you have shipment cost configured, then this can be achieved.

In your pricing procedure, you have to assign the shipment cost condition type next to insurance and assign the From-To step accordingly.

thanks
