4. PRICING (PG)

This concept is based on condition technique.

It’s the combination of:

1) Condition Tables

2) Access Sequence

3) Condition Types

4) Pricing Procedure

1. Condition Tables: - Condition table contain the key fields for maintaining condition records. I.e. in other words condition records are stored in condition table.

Note: - A condition type can have multiple condition tables.

Note: - A condition table can be used for multiple condition types.

Defining condition tables: -

SPRO

Sales and Distribution

Basic functions

Pricing

Pricing control

Define condition tables [V/03]

Create condition tables

Enter a table number beyond 600

From the field catalogue, which is there on the right side of the screen select the required key fields.

To get the valid on / valid to fields while maintaining the condition records we need to check the field “with validity period”.

Go to icon Technical View

The fields which are marked, as footer field appears at the footer level at the condition records and the remaining fields appears at the key level.

Select the Icon Generate for generating the condition table.

To save the condition table, select the button Local object.

2. Access Sequence: - Access sequence is a search strategy with the help of which the system gets the valid condition records. It contains the required condition tables in the required order.

Note: - If required an access sequence can be used or assigned to multiple

Condition types.

Note: - The order in which the condition table are placed in access sequence

is important generally it is most specific to most generic

Defining Access Sequence: -

Go to new entries and define the access sequence.

Select the defined access sequence and go to accesses.

Go to new entries and place the condition tables in the required order

While placing the condition tables check the field “exclusive”. By doing so if the system finds a valid condition record in the first condition table it will not go to the next condition table

Select the condition table and go to fields the system gives the warning message “the field assignment has not yet been made” say enter till we get the fields.

Repeat the same step for all the condition tables and save it.

Note: - After defining the access sequence assign it to the corresponding condition type.

3. Condition Types: -

Defining condition types: -

SPRO

Sales and Distribution

Define condition types.

Maintain condition types.

Functionality of a condition type: -

Access Sequence: - In this field specify the corresponding access sequence for the condition type.

Condition class: - It is the preliminary structuring of condition types.

Ex: - Surcharges or discounts and price

Plus/Minus: - If we specify negative here a condition type becomes discount and if we specify positive it becomes surcharge.

Calculation type: - Determines how the system calculates price discounts and surcharges in a condition type.

For Ex: - the system can calculate a price as a fixed amount or as a percentage based on the quantity, weight, or volume.

Condition Category: - It’s a classification of conditions according to pre-defined categories.

Rounding Rule: - The rule that determines how the system rounds of condition values during pricing.

Pricing Procedure

In SD, Pricing Procedure is determined based on Sales Area (Sales Organization + Distribution Centre + Division) + Customer Pricing Procedure + Document Pricing Procedure. Sales Area is determined in Sales Order Header Level. Customer Pricing Procedure is determined from Customer Master. Document Pricing Procedure is determined from Sales Document Type / Billing Type (if configured). Once the pricing procedure is determined, Condition records are fetched. If appropriate condition records are found, the price is determined. If Mandatory pricing condition is missing, system will through an error message.

In SD, the steps to configure Pricing procedure are as under:

Step 1:

Condition table: If existing condition table meets the requirement, we need not create a new condition table. Considering the requirement for new condition table, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Condition Table (select the required fields combination, which will store condition record).

Step 2:

Access Sequence: If existing access sequence meets the requirement, we need not create a new access sequence. Considering the requirement for new sequence, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Access Sequence (Access sequence is made up of Accesses (Tables) & the order of priority in which it is to be accessed. Here we assign the condition table to access sequence.

Step 3:

Condition Type: If existing condition type meets the requirement, we need not create a new condition type. Considering the requirement for new condition type, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Condition Type. It is always recommended to copy an existing similar condition type & make the neccessary changes. Here we assign Access sequence to Condition type.

Step 4:

a. Pricing Procedure: It is recommended to copy a similar pricing procedure & make the neccesary changes in new pricing procedure. Pricing Procedure is a set of condition type & arranged in the sequence in which it has to perform the calculation. Considering the requirement for new Pricing Procedure, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG -> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Pricing Procedure -> Maintain Pricing Procedure.

b. Pricing Procedure: After maintaining the pricing procedure the next step will be determination of pricing procedure. Configuration for determining pricing procedure in SPRO is as follows: IMG -> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Pricing Procedure -> Determine Pricing Procedure.

5. Condition record: Condition record is a master data, which is required to be maintained by Core team / person responsible from the client. During new implementation, the condition records can be uploaded using tools like SCAT, LSMW, etc.

Normal Sales Order Cycle:-

Step 1: Sales Document Type

IMG > Sales and Distribution > Sales > Sales Documents >

Sales Document Header:

1. Sales Document Type:The sales document types represent the different business transactions, such as Inquiry, Quotation, Sales Order, etc. To create new sales order type, always copy as with reference to similar sales order. If possible use standard sales order.

2. Define Number Ranges For Sales Documents: Maintain number range with discussion with core team.

3. Assign Sales Area To Sales Document Types:

A. Combine sales organizations / Combine distribution channels / Combine divisions: Ensure to maintain these, else Sales Order creation will give error.

B. Assign sales order types permitted for sales areas: Assign only required Sales Order Types to required Sales Area. This will minimize selection of Sales Order Type as per sales area.

Sales Document Item:

1. Define Item Categories: If possible use Standard Item Category. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.

2. Assign Item Categories: If possible, use standard. Formula for deriving item category: Sales Document Type + Item Category Group + Usage + Higher Level Item Category = Item Category

Schedule Line:

1. Define Schedule Line Categories: If possible use Standard Schedule Lines. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.

2. Assign Schedule Line Categories: If possible, use standard. Formula for deriving Schedule Line: Item Category + MRP Type / No MRP Type.

Step 2:

IMG > Logistic Execution > Shipping > Deliveries >

1. Define Delivery Types: If possible use Standard Delivery Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.

2. Define Item Categories for Deliveries: If possible use Standard Item Categories for Delivery Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.

3. Define Number Ranges for Deliveries: Ensure to maintain number range.

Step 3:

IMG > Sales and Distribution > Billing >

1. Define Billing Types: If possible use Standard Billing Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.

2. Define Number Range For Billing Documents: Ensure to maintain number range.

3. Maintain Copying Control For Billing Documents: Maintain relevant copy controls such as Sales Order to Billing, Deliver to Billing, etc.

The configuration differs from scenario to scenario & requirement of the client.
