hi,

Subtotal:

•The value of this field determines where the values of subtotals to be captured i.e. in which table and which field.

•Controls whether and in which fields condition amounts or subtotals (for example, a customer discount or the cost of a material) are stored.

•If the same fields are used to store different condition amounts, the system totals the individual amounts.

•These condition amounts or subtotals are used as a starting point for further calculations. You may, for example, want a subtotal of all the discounts included in the pricing of a sales order.

reward points if the answer is helpful

subtotal controls whether and in which fields condition amounts are stored.

Sobtotals are the routines written by ABAPERS. The programmes were written by ABAPERS such that condition amounts will be stored in the values(1,2, a, b)

one simple way to understand subtotal is for eg you are giving 4 or 5 discounts to a customer and if you want know the total of all such discounts you can give them a subtotal field value. Now all these discount conditions which have the same field value are cummulated.

This final can be futher used to know whtas the total discounts given are as starting point for some other calculation or in generating some SAP reports.

Thanks
