Hi,
Condition Exclusion Group –
In any normal situation there could be more than one condition type in a pricing procedure offering a discount to a customer. Should the discounts be automatically determined, there is the risk that the customer will receive all the relevant discounts and thus purchase the product for a lower price than he should.
By using ‘condition exclusion groups’ you can ensure that the customer does not receive all the discounts, but instead only receives the best of the available discount condition types.
Menu path – IMG - Sales & Distribution - Basic functions – pricing – condition exclusion – condition exclusion for groups of conditions (OV31).
A condition exclusion group is merely a grouping of condition types that are compared to each other during pricing and result in the exclusion of particular condition types within a group or entire groups. It is important to note that the condition types you want the system to compare must exist in the pricing procedure and must have valid condition records created for them.
If for example, a sales order is created using the pricing procedure that the exclusion group is assigned to, you can see that the condition offering the most favorable discount to the customer is represented in the pricing procedure.
For instance, condition type K007 has offered a discount of 10% off the sale price or a real value of $30, while another condition type K005 has offered a real value discount of $10. The system then takes the best discount for the customer between the two, which is K007 and makes the other discount K005 inactive. This can be seen by double clicking on the condition type K005, where you can find a entry saying ‘Inactive A condition exclusion item’.
There are four possible methods of using condition exclusion groups –
A – best condition between the condition types
B – best condition within the condition types
C – best condition between the two exclusion groups
D – exclusive
E – least favorable within the condition type
F – least favorable within the two exclusion groups
Configuring ‘Condition Exclusion Groups’
First step is to define a ‘condition exclusion group’ by using a four character alpha numeric key.
Next step is to assign the relevant condition types to the exclusion groups such as discount condition types, freight condition types.
After completing the assignment of the condition types to the exclusion group, proceed with assigning the condition exclusion group to the relevant pricing procedure.
After selecting the pricing procedure for which you want the condition exclusion to be active, select the folder ‘Exclusion’ where you can assign the relevant condition exclusion procedure to the relevant condition exclusion group.
When using the condition exclusion group to find the best condition record in a condition type – only use one condition type per exclusion group. The most important thing to remember here is to “deactivate” the Exclusive Indicator on the access sequence assigned to that condition type. Otherwise, the system will merely find the first condition record and stop searching for other records.
Condition Supplement
Condition supplement is a supplement for a particular condition type.The supplement can contain various discounts. During pricing, the system automatically applies the discounts defined in the supplement every time it accesses a material price.
Steps:
Goto --> Condition supplement on the overview screen of the condition record
i.e. VK11/12 click on Goto on --> Select condition Supplement Shift+F7 enter the supplement for the condition type u want
Condition update
Controls whether limit values are relevant for pricing.
E.g.: you can make the use of a particular condition record in the document dependent on a specified total value.
This total value can be specified in the condition record.
