What is the Use of Spec. Val. Source?

Hi,

What is the use of "Spec. Val. Source" in access sequence? rather than giving a constant value.

In other words can it be used to dynamically read a field from a table for example?

Thank you,

Hi Mostafa,

I think this field works as below :

Let us say your access sequence is  Sales Org/ DC / Price List

In this access sequence, for Pricing List, we will give access fields "Price List"

It means, system need to read this value from Sales order header

Condition record is maintaed as:

1000 / 10 / X1    10 USD

1000 / 10 / X2     12 USD

Now let us say, for one customer Price list not maintained in the Customer master, so nothing will flow into Sales order.

In such cases, if we give the value in access sequence, it will pick the value basing on that...

It means, I can tell the system, if no price list is maintain, read the pricelist as X2

it means, if the price list is missing, it will pick the rcord for X2 price list.

This is like alternative constant value maintained for access sequence.

Hope this clarifies.

Thank you Raju but that is the constant use of that field; my question is about using it in dynamic way; for example:

If i used the same example you mentioned, can i tell the system to take the payer's or SH's price list (whatever the value) instead of SP's?

Thanks

And by the way I think your example is not accurate; as in the case of using constant value (like X2) the system will ALWAYS adopt X2 and will ignore the customer price list.

In other words, it will ALWAYS be X2 regardless the customer has X2 in customer master or has another value or doesn't have any value there.

Thanks
