[Former Member]

Friends:

We have to shorten validity period of conditon record. We have records expiring in 2015. We have new pricing which i am planning to load through LSMW but before i load new prices i need to clean up reocrds expiring in 2015 through LSMW. Does any know how to clean up these records or shorten this records ?

Hi Vanbills,

You need not do anything to shorten the pricing validity dates.

Just upload your new prices using LSMW. System will automatically shorten the validity dates.

Example :

Existing Pricing record - PR00 - 100 USD - from 01.01.2008 to 31.12.2015

if you are creating a new pricing record today - PR00 - 120 USD - from 01.05.2009 to 31.12.2010

system will automatically shorten the previous record.

It means your existing record will become - PR00 - 100 USD - from 01.01.2008 to 30.04.2009 and

new record will be PR00 - 120 USD - from 01.05.2009 to 31.12.2010

Hence just upload new prices....forget about shortening the old dates.

Hi Vanbills

Change the Valid to Period of the condition records in the mass . and then upload the condition record through LSMW

Hi,

I am not sure whether MASS would help.

But I have used CATT procedure (T.code SCAT) to shorten the valid-to period of the condition records.

In the CATT, you can use VK12 recording, which will create the input file.

In the input file, you can add all the records that you want to shorten. Then again you can run the CATT procedure to change the valid-to of all other records.

You can do the testing first in your test system and if everything looks fine then you can proceed in your production system.
