SAP can support Director to determine PRICING?

[Former Member]

Dear experts,

Today, my customer asked me about Pricing, but I dont know how to answer him.

He asked, Can SAP support me to experted price?

For example, he want to have planed price, then SAP can show him about how much profit with that experted price.

(Because when I show him VK11, I tell him you can enter Price to Amount field)

then him asked me how he can detemine the best price. he just know current price is good or bad in next period, after CO reports.

How can I answer him? plz help me, because I really dont know

Tks

Hi,

It is possible through ECC also

There are lot of Option available to determine profit margin

You can maintain condition type in your pricing procedure

PR00

VPRS

Profit margin

How to configure this VPRS and profit margin see standard pricing procedure RVAA01

Now maintain condition record in VK11 for PR00 this is your basic price

then in sales order this PR00 is determined

also VPRS is determined which you maintained in material master ACCOUNTING TAB 1

then profit margin is calculated as BASIC - VPRS = Profit.

second point if your director having lot of planned price but he want to take only which is best profitable then work with condition EXCLUSION

Example - Your director plan prices 100, 150, 200 for material ABC now at time of sales order he/she want to take only 200

Then in pricing procedure there shuld be three basic condition types

PR00

PR01

PR02

Do configuration in IMG >> SD >> Basic functions >> pricing >> condition exclusion

Define Condition Exclusion Groups

Assign condition types to the exclusion groups

Maintain condition exclusion for pricing procedures - in this maintain condition pricing as A or B as per your requirement

Now when you process sales order system will take condition price which is best that is 200

Hi Kevin,

The answer for Director is yes, but not using ECC, you need something more advanced like SAP BPC (Business Planning and Consolidation). BPC handle dashboard and could meet what if scenarios.

Hope this help.
