Pricing Procedure In Purchase Order

By Thomas

We use the pricing procedure to define condition supplement for the material price. The condition supplement specifies the:

- discount, 
- surcharge, 
- freight etc that we want a system every time to access material price condition records.

The total value of the material is calculated or based on all addition and subtraction i.e. discounts, surcharge, tax freight etc.

This table defines the structure of condition record key.
