Hi,
one issue with these type of questions is that they are vey generic. It seems that you have not done any research so far. That's why probably a lot of people do not bother to answer.
Anyway...you should have a look at help.sap.com. In the SAP Best Practices area you will find "Industry packages" and in this area, you will find "Pharmaceuticals" as an industry package. This explains a lot on business processes and how they are configured.
You may also want to register at BPX where there is an own thread on Pharma.
I hope this helps.

Hi Rajshree,
In pharmaceutical industry, sales process includes selling of finished prodects & intermediate products.
Sales organizations are divided as per the region wise ( geographical) or operations ( sales volume).
Distribution channels include C&F, Direct from factory, internet sales, etc.....
Divisions - Almost all the companies have divisions Ex. Cardiac, neuro, antibiotic....
Customers are C&F agents, Hospitals, etc.
Sales starts with creation of Sales order and deliveries, then billing as per the credit period.
Sales order - Material code, Incoterms, Insurance, mininum delivery quantity, delivery schedules, partial deliveries, pricing for items, Taxes, discounts, etc...availabiliy check ( includes Quanliy management)
Deliver - Partial deliveries as per schedule lines, delivery quantity, Packing and shipping, PGI, Batch determination.
Billing - as per the Payment terms, any taxes, extra frieght charges.
Intermediary products - Sale of these products to other company for producing the finished product.Applies the same scenario as above but, includes packing conditions and shipping conditions.

hi
In a pharmaceutical business scenario will be like this
The company procures the raw materials and manufactures medicines. Normally companies are divided into divisions depending on the speciality of the medicines
example: cardiac, gyanec, paediatric divisions.
each division have there own specific products.
and every company have its own offices in metros or appoint c&f agents or we can say them as plants.
THROUGH THESE C&F AGENTS THE STOCK FROM COMPANYN ARRIVES AND IT WILL STORED AT C&F DEPENDING ON THE ORDERS RECEIVED AT C&F THEY WILL BE BILLED TO CUSTOMERS EX:l PHARMA DISTRIBUTORS, HOSPITALS, ETC.
