Details of the standard SAP routines used in Pricing schema

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I am a SAP-MM consultant and want to configure a pricing schema as per the business requirement of the client.Where shall I get the information about the significance of the keys in alternative calculation tye, requirement and alternative formula type.

I am not able to extract the meaning of the small routins beneat it.

Eg What happens if requirement key 60 is used?

hi,

Routines are some requirement of the pricing procedure which can't be mapped in std procedure. So here we are going to TC-VOFM, and defining our requirement with the help of ABAPers.

Few examples are given below:

Routine /Formula :- 15

A company has defined minimum prices for materials.

When a material is sold, it should not be sold for a price below the predefined minimum price. When pricing is done for a sales document line item, if the net price of the item falls below the minimum, the system should automatically compute a surcharge to bring the price up to the minimum price. To accomplish this, the user would define the minimum prices using the condition type PMIN. PMIN would be defined in the pricing procedure and condition value formula '15' would be assigned. Using the formula, the system compares the minimum price with the net price calculated to that point in the pricing procedure. If the minimum price is not met, the system computes the necessary surcharge and assigns it to the PMIN condition line.

Routine /Formula :- 48

Formula '48' was delivered to ensure that the down payment amount the user offsets in a billing document does not exceed the actual down payment value. Condition value formula '48' is assigned to the condition type in the pricing procedure representing down payments (R/3 delivered condition type AZWR).

I agree with what u said. But likewise where shall I get the information and the purpose of routines that comes along with the standard SAP package.

hi,

we have a condition for transfer pricing used when the goods are transferred frm a plant of one comp code to another.

Typically we have an intercompany billing for this scenario.

Now to give a list price to the customer what we do is, we maintain condition record for the transfer price like ZTPR and to derive the cost price and list price for the receiving company we have written rountines for the alternative cal type.

We have maintained one table where we mentino the multiplication factors like

A - .032

B - 1.34

etc. Now the alt cal type for the calculated list price and calculated cost ie conditin type ZPRC and ZCOS are derived taking the ZTPR conditin record value and multiplied by the multiplication factor. Inthe material master the multiplication factor is maintained as master data. so while calculating depending the receiving plant the multiplication factor varies and accordingly the values are derived.
