Hi

"Exclusive" means while placing the condition table in the action sequence Check the field "Exclusive" by doing so if the system finds a valid condition record in the first condition table it willnot go to the next condition table.

Conditon Exclusion: We can set the condition Exclusion in the defination of conditon type or in the condition records.

If we set a condition exclusion indicator the system ignres all those condition types which exist below to that condition type in the pricing procedre and with the same requirement as that of the condition type during sales document processing.

Please go through this link for exclusion and exclusion groups

Hi,

Condition Exclusion group is used to find the best and optimum condition type.

This can be used to check the best condition type among one group

or to find the best condition type in between two groups.

For this we have do the setting by selecting the required one as

available in the possible options like to be used within agroup

to be used between groups.

Also check the links below.

You can refer from pages 65 to 80 in this pdf.

Also

Simply speaking:

1) create groups (that group conditions)

2) assigns conditions

3) decide wich group 'wins' between 2 groups

4) assign the exclusion rule to the pricing procedure.

In pricing, more than one condition record may apply to a particular item at any one time. condition exclusion process is used to compare possible conditions in order to determine the best price for a customer.

First of all, exclusion groups needs to be created. An exclusion group is a list of condition types that is identified by a three-digit number. Exclusion groups are defined in Customizing for Sales. You also assign exclusion groups to a pricing procedure and to determine how the condition exclusion is to be carried out.

Next, the exclusion group is assigned to a pricing procedure, thus defining the condition exclusion.

Depending on how you configure exclusion groups in the pricing procedure, the system can use condition exclusion to select the best price or discount in six different ways:

1. Selecting the best condition record of a particular condition type from within one exclusion group

2. Selecting the most unsuitable condition from within one exclusion group

3. Selecting the best condition record for a condition type

4. Selecting the most unsuitable condition record for a condition type

5. Selecting the best conditions from different exclusion groups

6. Excluding all condition types in the second exclusion group if a particular condition type in the first exclusion group exists in the document

During automatic pricing for a sales order item, the system may find a number of valid condition records that apply to the same item. If the competing condition records belong to a variety of condition types, the system selects the record with the best price and excludes the other condition records.

Steps:

1. Define Exclusion group say "A001" for Discount exclusion.

2. Assign condition types to exclusion group. [A001 to ZDG4].

3. Assign condiion Exclusion group to Pricing procedure [A001 to ZGSSTE.

Here select your condition exlusion procedure [A-F] like

A- Best Condition between condition types,

B -Best condition within the condition type, etc

Condition Exclusion For Groups Of Conditions

If several condition records are valid for pricing in a document item, you can define rules that specify which condition records are not included. You use condition exclusion for this purpose.

You control condition record exclusion using exclusion groups. An exclusion group is a list of condition types which are compared with each other during pricing and result in the exclusion of an entire group or individual condition types within a group.

Thus, the result of pricing can be influenced with regard to a required criterion (for example, best price) by excluding certain condition types while others are taken into account during pricing.

Example

You can define a condition exclusion which determines the best price for the customer and excludes other less favorable results of pricing. The best price then reverses the priority of condition types which would have been predefined by the access sequence.

The procedure according to which the selection is carried out within or between the condition exclusion groups is defined in the pricing procedure. The following options are possible:

Selection of the most (least) favorable condition type within a condition exclusion group

Selection of the most (least) favorable condition record of a condition type, if more valid condition records exist (for example, selection from different condition records of the condition type PR00)

Selection of the most (least) favorable of two condition exclusion groups (in this case, all condition types of the two groups are cumulated and the totals are compared)

Exclusion procedure: If a condition type in the first group exists in the document, all condition types in the second group are set to inactive.

The tables for condition exclusion are empty when delivered. You therefore have to carry out the following steps if you want to use condition exclusion:

OV31 --- Define condition exclusion groups

OV32 --- Assign Condtion types to exclusion groups.

VOK8 --- Maintain conditoin exclusion groups for pricing procedure.

At T.Code VOK8 you can have therse options configured.

A Best condition between condition types

B Best condition within the condition type

C Best condition between the two exclusion groups

D Exclusive

E Least favorable within the condition type

F Least favorable betweent the two exclusion groups

Hi Guru,

<b>Condition Exclusion</b> which will be determined in the billing document

The system can exclude conditions so that they are not taken into account during pricing.

For example:

Material 4711 costs 150 USD. Some customers receive a discount of 10 USD per 100 pieces.

However, a specific customer can buy the material for 100 USD. Since this is a particularly good price, the customer should not also have a discount of 10 USD per 100 pieces. Therefore, this discount is to be excluded from pricing.

To create a condition exclusion procedure which will be determined in the billing document.

Assign the procedure to the pricing schema, and maintain copy control so that pricing is not copied from Sales Order.

To achieve this, copy the standard pricing to a ZXXXX Pricing.

Define new document pricing procedure in SM30 - V_TVKV for billing.

Assign new document pricing procedures to billing types in SM30 - V_TVFK_PR

Define the Condition Exclusion Groups in OV31.

Assign the Condition type for the Condition Exclusion Groups in OV32.

Assign the Billing Pricing Procedure in VOK8 for the Condition Exclusion Groups.

When billing document is being created just enter manually your new price and the pricing program logic will include only the higher price one, excluding the rest that are lower price.
