Existing SD Pricing procedure change

[ramesh_s10]

Hi Gurus.

Pls clear my doubt for SD pricing procedure.

As of now i have maintained one pricing procedure(ZIND1) to one particular distribution channel(40).Already lot of invoiced was processed for the same. Now my doubt is can i create and assign new pricing procedure(ZIND2) for the above mentioned Dis channel(40), meanwhile how to process the Old sales order/ Partially delivered sales order which might have the Old pricing procedure (ZIND1).

Waiting for your valuable replies.

Hi,

In general, we recommend that you proceed as follows to change pricing

procedures:

1. Copy the pricing procedure that you want to change with a different

name.

2. Make the required changes in the copied pricing procedure. The

original pricing procedure remains unchanged.

3. Save your entries.

4. Use transaction OVKK (Pricing Procedures: Determination in Sales

Docs.) to assign the new and the changed pricing procedure to the

required business transactions.

5. Save your entries.

This procedure ensures that the changes you make to the pricing

procedure do not negatively affect existing documents.

However, all newly created documents, for which the system uses

Customizing to redetermine the pricing procedure, are based on the new,

adjusted pricing procedure.

Please refer to the note 388112 about it.

For the exsiting documents, I am afraid there is no standard method to update them.

Cheers,

Alex

As you would be aware pricing procedure in a sale order / billing would be determined based on the combinations what you maintained in OVKK. This means, you have to either differentiate your document pricing procedure or customer pricing procedure which should then be assigned in OVKK.

Incidentally, there should not be any open sale orders with old pricing procedure. You have to foreclose all those and recreate fresh orders.

thanks

I think you should set yourself a starting point, like the 1st day of next period (you have to any way at a certain point of time), and assign your new pricing procedure.

The alreday created sales orders,... will be closed with the ol pricing procedure

Hi,

Please schedule your cutover plan, since old pricing proc. is in system you can complet your billing part, but for new pricing procedure, as define in cutover plan, creat new pricing procedure and assign the same, here you may need to create new customer pricing procedure.
