Dear Raj,
1.Regarding your first queiry you can control through maintaining the validity period for that condition type in the condition record.
2.I think your quiry on Field delete fr.DB Iam I right !! if right
You can use this indicator to control how the system operates when deleting condition records.
You can have the following options:
o SPACE: You can set an indicator so that the condition record is no longer used in pricing. The condition record is then archived in the archiving run. This is how things happened before Release 4.6A.
o A: You can delete the condition records from the database. You then receive a popup, asking whether the condition record should actually be deleted or whether the deletion indicator should simply be set.
o B: You delete the condition records from the database. You only receive a popup if there are condition supplements available.
3.Regarding Condition Index Use
Tracking Cumulative Values With Condition Update
Use
Special offers and discounts to customers are frequently offered as part of a sales promotion based on accumulated sales order data. For example, when your customers place orders for a new product, you may offer them an introductory allowance up to a specified total value (for example, up to USD 5,000). As a customer places orders for the new product, the system must be able to keep track of the cumulative discount total. With Release 2.1, it was possible to accumulate values based on invoices for the purpose of processing rebate agreements. In Release 2.2 this idea was extended to include a new, more general condition update function.
Controlling Condition Update
Condition update is controlled by the condition type in setting Customizing for Sales. If you set the condition update for a particular condition type, the system subsequently updates the corresponding condition records whenever you process relevant sales and billing documents.
Pricing Function Support
Condition update provides the basis for the following pricing functions:
Maximum Value
Maximum quantity
Maximum Number of Sales Orders
These functions are described in more detail in the following section:
4.Regardimg condition Index Use
Use
You can create and use condition indices. You can use these indices to display, change and create condition records with reference. This transaction can include condition records with several condition types and tables. For example, you can use a condition index if you want to see all condition records that apply to a particular product regardless of whether the records are prices or discounts. In this case, you can use one of the standard condition indexes. Or you may want to see a list of condition records that contain a particular sales deal and a material from a user-specified list of products. To display this information, you can create your own condition index.
Creating an Index
Creating a condition index is similar to creating a condition table. In Customizing for Sales, you select the combination of fields that you want in the index key. The system automatically proposes a list of permitted fields to choose from. The fields you specify for the key can have a maximum combined length of 100 characters. Further information on creating an index can be found in the IMG (Implementation Guide).
Reorganizing an Index
Reorganization means updating an index with current data. The following are examples of when this might be required.
After you create a new index and generate it, you want to fill the index with the current data in your system. (This also applies if you choose to activate one of the standard condition indexes).
After you specify that condition indexes should be updated for a particular condition type, you want to fill the indexes with the corresponding condition records that already exist.
Please note that since the system has to read all the relevant condition records, reorganization is automatically submitted as a background task.
Activating an Index
The activation function displays a list of all available condition indexes and indicates which are active. The system can use a condition index only when it is activated. Before you can use the indexes that are delivered in the standard version, you must first activate them in Customizing for Sales. Some indices are activated automatically during generation. In addition, you must specify one of the following index updating requirements for each condition index:
-->Requirement 1: The index is updated when the user provides data for all fields in the index
-->Requirement 2: The index is updated when the user provides data for at least the first index field
Controlling Index Update by Condition Type
You can specify for each condition type whether or not the system updates the condition indexes when you post condition records. In cases where updating condition indexes may not be necessary - for example, with freight- and tax-related condition records - you can leave the condition index indicator blank.
Selecting Condition Records Using an Index
After you have defined a condition index and the system has updated it with current data, you can use it to search condition records.
Procedure
To select condition records using an index:
1.Choose Logistics --> Sales and Distribution --> Master Data from the main menu.
2.Choose Conditions --> Select using index and specify whether you want to change or display condition records.
A dialog box displays the condition indexes that are currently available.
3.Select the condition index you want to use and choose ENTER.
You reach the screen where you enter selection criteria.
4.Enter your selection criteria and choose Execute.
The system displays a list of the condition records by condition type for the selection criteria you entered.
I hope it will make you clear .......
