manual and mandatory condition type??

[Former Member]

Hi

What happens when you do not enter a value for a manual and mandatory condition type?

What are the difference between these two?

The pricing procedure will reject the conditions in the sales order

If you do not enterthe value for a manual and mandatory condition type system well accpect watever the value you give .

During sales order processing, you can manipulate pricing at both the header and item level. The options for manual processing of a price screen depend on the individual condition types. In Customizing the level of manipulability for each condition type is precisely defined. The following definitions are possible:

A condition type is not restricted with regard to its manual processing (for example, the entry of freight costs).

Manual entries have priority over results of pricing determined automatically or vice versa.

A condition type cannot be changed manually (for example, in the case of automatically determined sales taxes).

hi,

if you tick both manual and mandatory, system prompts to enter the value at sales order level and its a required value.

Manual or not, it talks about which entry has preference. Automatic or manual.

Mandatory - just ensures that a value is there for that condition, It does nt matter whether its automatic or manual.

Pl reward if it helps.

Hi,

when u do not maintain the record for a Mandatory condition type, system will not allow u to proceed further in the sales order.

And for manual , the end user can enter the condition type manually in the sales order, especially this is useful in highhly competetive markets.

Manual:

This indicator specifies whether the specific condition type can be determined manually during sales order processing.

If we check the box then the entry is going to be manual, if we uncheck it, it is going to be automatic.

For Base Price and Taxes, the entry should be automatic.

For Discounts and Freights, The entry should be manual.

If we check the box, in VA01 when we go to conditions at the header/item level, the condition type will not be listed. If we require we will have to manually enter it.

If we uncheck the box, in VA01 when we go to conditions at the header/item level, the condition type will be listed.

Mandatory:

This indicator specifies that particular condition type is mandatory in the pricing procedure.

If we check the box, then in VA01 at the header/item level in the conditions tab, if we delete the value in the condition type and try to save the document then system will not allow us to do it and throws an error.

If we uncheck the box, then in VA01 at the header/item level in the conditions tab, if we delete the value in the condition type and try to save the document then system will allow us to save it, without giving any error.

Mandatory check box should be checked in condition types which are compulsorily required in pricing procedure. Ex.: PR00, MWST.

If the condition type is checked with mandatory option, then value should be maintained for that condition type, otherwise the system will not allow the user to process the document.

Hope it helps you.
