Hi Kris,

Condition Exclusion For Groups Of Conditions

If several condition records are valid for pricing in a document item, you can define rules that specify which condition records are not included. You use condition exclusion for this purpose.

You control condition record exclusion using exclusion groups. An exclusion group is a list of condition types which are compared with each other during pricing and result in the exclusion of an entire group or individual condition types within a group.

Thus, the result of pricing can be influenced with regard to a required criterion (for example, best price) by excluding certain condition types while others are taken into account during pricing.

Example

You can define a condition exclusion which determines the best price for the customer and excludes other less favorable results of pricing. The best price then reverses the priority of condition types which would have been predefined by the access sequence.

The procedure according to which the selection is carried out within or between the condition exclusion groups is defined in the pricing procedure. The following options are possible:

Selection of the most (least) favorable condition type within a condition exclusion group

Selection of the most (least) favorable condition record of a condition type, if more valid condition records exist (for example, selection from different condition records of the condition type PR00)

Selection of the most (least) favorable of two condition exclusion groups (in this case, all condition types of the two groups are cumulated and the totals are compared)

Exclusion procedure: If a condition type in the first group exists in the document, all condition types in the second group are set to inactive.

The tables for condition exclusion are empty when delivered. You therefore have to carry out the following steps if you want to use condition exclusion:

OV31 --- Define condition exclusion groups

OV32 --- Assign Condtion types to exclusion groups.

VOK8 --- Maintain conditoin exclusion groups for pricing procedure.

At T.Code VOK8 you can have therse options configured.

A Best condition between condition types

B Best condition within the condition type

C Best condition between the two exclusion groups

D Exclusive

E Least favorable within the condition type

F Least favorable betweent the two exclusion groups

Hope this gives the information reqarding conditon exclusion groups.

Pl Reward if it helps.

Thanks & Regards

In pricing for sales and billing documents, more than one condition record may apply to a particular item at any one time. You can use the condition exclusion process to compare possible conditions in order to determine such things as the best price for a customer.

An exclusion group is a list of condition types that is identified by a three-digit number. Exclusion groups are defined in Customizing for Sales. You also assign exclusion groups to a pricing procedure and to determine how the condition exclusion is to be carried out.

You then assign the exclusion groups to a pricing procedure, thus defining the condition exclusion.

Depending on how you configure exclusion groups in the pricing procedure, the system can use condition exclusion to select the best price or discount in six different ways:

Selecting the best condition record of a particular condition type from within one exclusion group

Selecting the most unsuitable condition from within one exclusion group

Selecting the best condition record for a condition type

Selecting the most unsuitable condition record for a condition type

Selecting the best conditions from different exclusion groups

Excluding all condition types in the second exclusion group if a particular condition type in the first exclusion group exists in the document
