Dear All

Can you please help providing details on functions of standard Subtotal and Alt Cal Types provided in SAP-SD Pricing.

I mean:

1. Standard Subtotals like 2,3,5,G etc.

2. Alt Cal Types like 4,7 etc.

3. Requirements Like 10, 70, 71, 4 etc.

Any document details will be highly appreciated.

Thanks

Raghu A.

Subtotal:

u2022 The value of this field determines where the values of subtotals to be captured i.e. in which table and which field.

u2022 Controls whether and in which fields condition amounts or subtotals (for example, a customer discount or the cost of a material) are stored.

u2022 If the same fields are used to store different condition amounts, the system totals the individual amounts.

u2022 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:

u2022 It is a routine that is written by an ABAP consultant according to the business requirement.

u2022 By defining Requirement in condition technique we can restrict the access of condition type.

u2022 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).

u2022 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".

u2022 This Requirement will ensure that these condition types will appear only during the billing document processing.

u2022 If new Requirements are to be defined we follow the procedure given below.

u2022 Go to T.Code: VOFM. - Maintain Requirements & Formulas

u2022 Click on the "Requirements" in the top menu and then click on "pricing".

u2022 We have a list of requirements, we can ask ABAP consultant to create new requirement based on the client requests.

u2022 And we assign the application type like V - Sales/Distribution etc.

AltCty - Condition formula for alternative calculation type:

u2022 It is again a Routine that is written by ABAP Consultant.

u2022 It is an alternative formula for the condition type that can be used instead of standard formulas.

u2022 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.

u2022 Ex.: 950 0 Profit Margin 11.

u2022 So we assign 11 - Profit Margin.

u2022 If new routines are to be defined we follow the procedure given below.

u2022 Go to T.Code: VOFM. - Maintain Requirements & Formulas

u2022

u2022 Click on the "Formulas" and then on the "Condition Values".

u2022 We have a list of routines, we can ask ABAP consultant to create new routines based on the client requests.

u2022 And we assign the application type.

AltCBV - Alternative formula for condition base value:

u2022 Formula for determining the condition basis as an alternative to the standard.

u2022 It is again a Routine that is written by ABAP Consultant.

u2022 It is used as a basis to calculate value of the condition type instead of using it from the "FROM" column.

u2022 Ex.: Freight - KF00.

u2022 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.

u2022 In this column we can mention the value as 12 - Gross Weight or 13 - Net Weight.

u2022 During pricing, the system will consider the value that is mentioned in this column and determine the freight based on this value.

u2022 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.

Thanks Rajesh

I know what these are for.

Please advice What the standard requirements, subtotal, and Alt Cal types perform,

like assigning requirement 24 makes the price calculated at invoice and not at sales order.
