Dear Humility,

If you have given valid records for both the conditions, system will determine both.

If you want a single condition value to be dermined in procedure then use condition exclusion.

Pricing -> Condition Exclusion

Dear Humility,

A.which condition type(discount 1 or discount 2?) will be used to determine the value of discount?

-->Discount will be based on the Price of the product so you need to calculate the discount from the price.

-->Which condition type will be used again this will depend upon the business requirement.

For example

-->If the business requires two types of discounts llike Material discount for quantity and cash discount with percentage you need to consider two discount types to calculate the discounts.

K004--Material Discount (Quantity)

K007-Customer Discount(Percentage

-->If the business requires any one of the discount you can use condition exclusion option which is mentioned in the earlier response.

-->If the business requires only single discount you need to consider single discount type in your pricing procedure.

B.If both of them apply , then what's the sequence of the two conditon type?

-->Normally the discount will be calculated after excise duty and before tax so you can put these discount condition types after excise duty calculation before Tax condition types.

-->Sequence among these two discounts is not a issue you can maintain either one of the condition type first then second one in the next step if both will calculate from the same Base(i.e price)

I hope this will help you,

Regards,

Murali.
