Alt cal type, alt cond base value

[Former Member]

Hi SAP Gurrus,

If the interviewer asks, what is alt calc type, alt cond base value , what i have to tell

Plz tell the def and with small example for

1.alt calc type ,

2. alt cond base value ,

3. Subtotal.

which is in Pricing procedure.

2. What is Replenishment Lead time.

hi

Alternative calculation type: - Specifies the alternative formula to the calculation type in the standard system that determines a condition.

Alternative condition base value: - Specifies the formula for determining the condition basis as an alternative to the standard.

Sub Total: - Controls whether and in which fields the condition amounts or subtotals are stored.

Total time for the in-house production or for the external procurement of a product. In in-house production, the replenishment lead time is determined to cover all BOM levels.

Use

As a rule, the replenishment lead time is used in the availability check. If the replenishment lead time is not maintained, then the system uses the in-house production time or the planned delivery time to determine component availability. If both are maintained, the in-house production time or the planned delivery time have higher priority than the replenishment lead time.

I

The replenishment lead time is interpreted as follows:

• In the case of planning at component level, the replenishment lead time is reduced to the in-house production time.

• When planning at finished product level, the replenishment lead time is considered to be the production time of the overall structure. To react quickly to customer demand, ensure the following:

o Planned independent requirements are maintained at finished product level.

o Sales orders are entered a long time in advance.

Hello,

What prashant told in that i will add something like.

alt calc type u acn give example like rutine no 11 which is used for calculating profit magin.

base cal type u can give example is 12 or 13 that we use to cal fright. like we cal frieght on wt basis we take base cal type as wt from mmr.

some detailed info as follows i hope this will help u lot for understanding the same

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.

Requirement:

It is a routine that is written by an ABAP consultant according to the business requirement.

By defining Requirement in condition technique we can restrict the access of condition type.

To understand the concept, we will take the example of the Rebates. Rebates are to be included during the billing document processing and not in the sales document processing. As rebates are given on the delivered quantity and not on the ordered quantity (in case of cut-off period for rebates).

For rebates we use the condition types BO01 to BO05, and in the Requirement column we give the value 24 which is "Only in Billing Document".

This Requirement will ensure that these condition types will appear only during the billing document processing.

If new Requirements are to be defined we follow the procedure given below.

Go to T.Code: VOFM. - Maintain Requirements & Formulas

Click on the "Requirements" in the top menu and then click on "pricing".

We have a list of requirements, we can ask ABAP consultant to create new requirement based on the client requests.

And we assign the application type like V - Sales/Distribution etc.

AltCty - Condition formula for alternative calculation type:

It is again a Routine that is written by ABAP Consultant.

It is an alternative formula for the condition type that can be used instead of standard formulas.

For example, let us take the Profit Margin which can be both + / - , so here this routine will help us in generating the value which can be either + or -. Profit margin is not a condition type so it cannot be classified as +ve or -ve in the V/06.

Ex.: 950 0 Profit Margin 11.

So we assign 11 - Profit Margin.

If new routines are to be defined we follow the procedure given below.

Go to T.Code: VOFM. - Maintain Requirements & Formulas

Click on the "Formulas" and then on the "Condition Values".

We have a list of routines, we can ask ABAP consultant to create new routines based on the client requests.

And we assign the application type.

AltCBV - Alternative formula for condition base value:

Formula for determining the condition basis as an alternative to the standard.

It is again a Routine that is written by ABAP Consultant.

It is used as a basis to calculate value of the condition type instead of using it from the "FROM" column.

Ex.: Freight - KF00.

Freight is calculated based on weight, volume etc. and not on the base price. In pricing there is no entry of weight from which the value can be referred like we do for discounts using base price. We have to get the value from the Material master.

In this column we can mention the value as 12 - Gross Weight or 13 - Net Weight.

During pricing, the system will consider the value that is mentioned in this column and determine the freight based on this value.

Suppose we have Net weight: 100 kgs and Gross Weight: 150 kgs. And if we mention 13 in this column then the Freight condition KF00 will be calculated using the weight as 100 kgs.

Replenishment Lead time

Time needed for production & procurment of item.

like for ex u mainatin rlt as 10 days when u put sales order u do avail.check if stock is not there then system cosider RLT for giving confirmed delivery date in future.

u can maintain it in mmr or even in sales doc type.

Hi jasmin,

1) whenever we don"t have particular condition type in standard SAP,for that transactions,we use alt cty..Ex:in standard SAP,there is no condition type for profit margin.Hence we use 11 as altcty to calculate profit margin.then system calculates profit margin=gross value-netvalue.

2)altcbv is used instead of "From"in the pricing procedure..Ex:freight charges are dependent on grossweight and netweight.so,we use 11 and 12 as altcbv for KF00 cond type.so,system takes the base value from gross weight and net weight to calculate the freight charges..

3)Replenishment leadtime is the time taken to calculate,when the material is available for delivery.

hi

1.alt calc type

Alternative formula to the formula in the standard system that determines a condition

A powerful tool in Pricing Procedure

Used for performing complex calculations

Extensively used for calculating Taxes , Rounding etc..

2. alt cond base value

Formula for determining the condition basis as an alternative to the standard

Used for determining the base on which Calculation of the condition value has to be carried out

Used for calculating Taxes , Discounts , Freights etc.

3. Subtotal

They meant for display only. in most of the case

Like you have Basic Price and discount now if u ahve to calculate tax on value after deduction of descount from basic price for that you have to maintain SUBTOTAL

What is Replenishment Lead time

Total time for the in-house production or for the external procurement of a product. In in-house production the replenishment lead time is determined to cover all BOM levels.
