Hi Prabudh,

Scales are used to seggregate pricing based on Quantities. That means you can maintain multiple prices for the same material based on the order qty.

To activate scales in any condition type use

IMG -> Sales and Distribution

-> Basic Function

-> Pricing

-> pricing Control

-> Define Condition type

The Scales are used when for example

when order is for less then 10 pounds price is Rs 200 / Kg

when it is more then or equal to 10 pounds price is Rs 100 /Kg

You maintain scales for conditions.

1. You specify sacle basis as "qty scale" in def. of condition types.

2. Go to Vk11, enter the condition record and select the icon "scales", then u enter your required scales.

Hi,

can u do a small search in this forum, todad morning also there was one posting regarding the same.

<b>Scales</b>

A scale in a condition record where prices, discounts, or surcharges are defined for different customer order quantities or values.

This scale is used by the system to determine the price, discount, or surcharge for a given quantity or value.

This is defined in the each condition type

spro--> img>sd->basic functions> pricing>pricing control->define cond type--->select any one condtion type eg: PR00--> come down u will find scales views.

<b>scales basis:</b>

depending upon the scales basis the prices are determined according.

example:

A company want to give discount based quantity scale ie, if customer buy 10 pcs the prices would be 100/ unit & if he purchase more than 20 the prices would be 80/unit.

So in scale basis u have to select quantity scale. & the prices aganist teh qunatity will be defined in condition record maintanenace <b>(tcode:VK11)</b>. The other sclaes basis available are

B Value scale

Prabudh,

When pricing discount is based on Qunatity,Scales are used..

Scales are used to seggregate pricing based on Quantities. That means you can maintain multiple prices for the same material based on the order qty.

Like when ordered quntity is 1-99 Price=Rs 100/Unit

100-200=Rs.95/unit Like that.

In scales u need to maintain scale values/limits..

Hi tiwari,

Scales are used to seggregate pricing based on Quantities. That means you can maintain multiple prices for the same material based on the order qty.

Eg. In Wholesale scenario, business is mostly driven through volumes. To lure the customers, they always price depending on the volume.

For Eg. Upto 1000 Eggs - 0.50/- per egg

from 1001 & Upto 3000 eggs - 0.45/- per egg

From 3001 & upto 6000 eggs - 0.40/- per egg.

The above situation is achived in pricing through scales - because all these prices pertain only to one material.

Reward points pls.

Govind.
