Picking area: Below the storage Type level, The Picking area group together storage bins from a picking point of view. A delivery can be split up into different picking areas to make parallel picking possible. Staging area: The staging area is a part of the warehouse where goods are stored immediately after unloading or shortly before loading. Door: A Door can be used for both the inbound and outbound delivery of goods. (Door determination takes place at the delivery header level. Staging area determination can take place at the delivery header level and item level. Different staging area at the delivery item level lead to a transfer order split because the staging area is a header level in the Transfer Order.) • • The connection of the organizational unit in the warehouse to MM Inventory Management results from The Assignment of Warehouse No. To a combination of plant and storage location.

Determination-sales doc. item categories + MRP (MRP 1- Mat. master) • A Purchase requisition for purchase order can be generated automatically from sales order. • You can deactivate requirements of transfer (MRP) and availability check at schedule line level. Bill Of Materials • The item in BOM are controlled in sales order differently by Sales document Item Categories • All Items in the bill of material (BOM) that you want to control in the sales document must be flagged as relevant for sale. Hence you should create a BOM material with BOM usage 5 (SD), all the items in bill of material will be automatically flagged as relevant to sales. • The BOM appears in the sales document as a structure with main item and sub-items. The system explodes the BOMs in the sales order by automatically generating sub-items for the components. • Item category group in Material Master for main item –ERLA, Main item is priced and sub item is not priced. Item category of main item- TAQ and Sub Item-TAE • Item category group in Material Master for main item –LUMF, Main item is not priced and sub item is priced. Item category of main item- TAP and Sub Item-TAN Availability check • An Availability check is carried out during sales order processing. • An availability check occurs ifThe Material requires an availability check-in material master (Gen./Plant or MRP 3) The Material availability checks in customizing-Delivery item Categories and Schedule line categories. • Availability is checked on material availability date. The material availability date is determined from delivery scheduling, on this date enough material has to be available in time for delivery to the customer for their requested date. • In Customizing, you can configure which inward and outward movements are to be considered in availability check. • Communication between sales and distribution and Procurement is carried out via requirements. The transfer of requirements type can be influence the availability check. • Any agreements made with customer about deliveries also affect the result of the availability check. Example-complete/partial deliveries. • The indicator for controlling complete/partial deliveries is proposed from the customer master records. The proposal for the item level comes from the customer-material information record, if a customer and material agreement maintained there. These indicators can be changed manually during order entry. • The availability check includesCurrent stock Inward movement Outward movement

Backorder processing • • An order item is backdated if The quantity of an order item is not totally confirmed. The request delivery date for an order item cannot be kept. There are two type of backorder processing Manually- From list sales order processes them manually with reference to confirmation (Short fall can be cleared). Via Rescheduling- We can use the delivery priority (proposed from the customer master) and make new order and confirmation date by scheduling.

Shipment or Delivery scheduling • Different Times involved in delivery schedulingPick/Pack Time Loading Time Transportation Lead Time Transit Time • Backward scheduling-The customer request delivery date is used to calculate the material availability date and transportation lead-time. The delivery must be created on the earlier of two dates, if both date are after the order date, the customer’s requested delivery date can be confirmed. • Forward scheduling- If both of dates not come after order date, customer request delivery date cannot be confirmed. Now system confirm the quantity on the basis of New Material availability date, the earliest date at which the material is available in the warehouse. Two schedule line are generated for the sale line itemo The date of the first schedule line corresponds to the customer’s required delivery date and has no confirmed quantity. o The date of schedule line shows the confirmed delivery date and the confirmed quantity. Assembly processing [Make to Order] Make to Order without assembly processingProduction Order is generated from planned order. Make to order without assembly processing is characterized by the fact that materials are not available in the warehouse but produced especially for a particular sales order. An individual Customer requirement is generated from the sales order item and transferred to material planning. We can use material planning run to plan requirements, once this has been done production is carried out. The system returns the confirmed quantity and delivery date from production order to sales order. After the product has been manufacture, goods receipt is posted in the sales order stock which is a special stock, and which can only be used for a specific sales order.

Make to Order with assembly processingProduction Order is generated from sales order (No need material planning run). The individual components for the final product have already been produced; we only need to assemble the component according to the customer’s requirement. Complaints processing • You can create The Returns or a Credit memo request or a Debit memo request with reference to a sales order or a Billing document. • A Billing Block is automatically assigned to the credit memo request or debit memo request. This prevents immediate billing. • The standard returns process in SAP has an order related Billing-Credit memo. Hence, credit memo generation can be carried out independently of the inbound delivery of returned goods. • You create the Invoice Correction request or credit/debit memo (without credit/debit memo request) with reference to the Billing Document. • An Invoice correction request is always created with reference to the incorrect billing document. A credit memo item and a Debit memo item are created in the Invoice correction request for every item in the incorrect billing Document. Change can only be carried out on the debit memo items (debit memo is in Change mode, you can put Correct quantity here). It always delete in pair Sales information system • With Sales Information System (SIS), you can compress data from sales document to obtain information. • Sales information System (SIS) is apart of Logistics information systems (LIS). • List fall in two categories- Online List and Work list. Online ListProvide Data for document, Display document for example-For a customer or a material, with a specific status. Allow you to check and change the documents. Work ListDisplay activities that need to be processed. Allow you to organize tasks into efficient work units. Work list allows you to select certain task in SD and to process them afterwards. You select the task according to area of responsibility on various selection criteria (such as date, organizational element or customer). • The information system based on information structures. These are special statistic table, which contain transactional data from different application. This data is constantly updated by system. • Information structure contained three basic type of information:Characteristics, Period Unit, and Key Figures. • Standard information structures for SD available in the R/3 systems are from S001 to S006, You Can create your Own Information structure in Customizing using the name range S501 to S999. • Standard Analysis:A variety of tools are available that allow you to analyze. These include, for example, Cumulative Curves, ABC analysis, time series, top-n evaluation, and comparison option. Abhishek Parihar SAP SD Certified Consultant E-Mail: abhishekparihar@rediffmail.com

The analysis is based on the information structure. First, you select the required data scope depending on the characteristics and period of information structure. This data is first displayed in basic list, which can be drilled down to display different characteristics. • Flexible Analysis:Flexible analysis in LIS allow you to determine which data in which format is combined to create an individual report. With Flexible Analysis you can combine characteristics and key figures from different information structure in one list. Data flow • Information is transferred from the preceding document to subsequent document. • Describes the mapping of business process in sales by creation of sales document with reference of preceding document, this enable document flows to be built up that describe business process. • This allows you to copy partial quantities or all the item and quantities in reference document directly by choosing Item selection. You can select certain items and can change quantities before they are copied. Document Flow • A sales process is made up of the sequence of individual process steps, recorded as documents; this process chain is stored in the document flow. • You can view all the documents within the document flow in a list, you can branch to individual documents by double clicking and to display of a document and then return to document flow. • In status overview in document flow, you can quickly find detailed information about current status of SD process. • Document flow updated, when indicator “update doc.

This give you an overview of all the open quantity, if the quantity in schedule line exceeds the target quantity, system issue a warning message. Contracts Two Types-Quantity contract and value contract • The contract does not contain any schedule line, delivery quantities or delivery date. It is valid for a certain period of time. • Release orders are created with reference to a contract. Schedule lines are created in the release order when it is placed. You can choose materials directly or by exploding an assortment module (list of valid materials-Master data for product). • You can create release order in any currency and the total value is updated in the currency of the contract. • The value of release order is compared with value still open in the contract. You can define how the system responds when this value is exceeded (sales document type) • A value contract defines that your customer agrees to purchase a fixed total value (target amount) of goods and services during the defined period. • You can have partner function AA as optional sold to party and AW as optional ship to party in the standard system. • You can maintain contract data at both header and item level in the sales document. • If you assign a contract profile to the sales document type, the system automatically determine default values specific to the contract.

• Material determination is carried out by condition technique. You do not need a material master record for the material number that you are replacing. • You can assign a substitution reason to every master record in material determination that defines how the material should be determined. • In standard system reason for substitution 0005 is for manual product selection and 0004/0006 is for automatic product selection. If automatic product selection is used, the system may display (based on customizing) the entered and substitute material as main and sub-items in sales order. • Item data sales A contain information about material that was originally entered and reason for substitution. • You can use product attributes in material master and customer master records to exclude a particular material from product list. • You can re-run material determination when delivery is created. If material determination is rerunning, the result of the substitution may change due to new availability situation. • You can assign a material determination procedure to each sales document type.

Listing • Make sure that your customer receives only specific materials. You enter these materials as a material listing. • The material listing is controlled by condition technique. • You define in sales document type whether the system checks the material listing or not. Exclusion • Make sure that the customer does not receive certain materials. You enter these materials as a material exclusion. • The material exclusion also controlled by condition technique. Free Goods • Condition technique is used for free good determination. • For free goods determination system usesSales area Document determination procedure (Sales document type) Customer determination procedure (Customer master data) • Free goods can be part of the order quantity not included in the invoice. This is called an inclusive bonus quantity. The order goods and the free goods both involve the same material. The quantity units of the free goods and ordered goods must be same. • In inclusive bonus quantities, the extra goods are delivered free of charge and not typically his included in the invoice. This can either be an additional quantity of the goods ordered or it can be another article. The exclusive free goods appear in the sales document as an individual, free- ofcharge item. • The system re-reads the free goods master record in the sales order if the quantities in the main item change or if the pricing date changes. The system then deletes the sub-items and re-creates them. Abhishek Parihar SAP SD Certified Consultant E-Mail: abhishekparihar@rediffmail.com

Any manual changes to the free goods quantity are lost. If pricing is re-run in the sales order, it does not affect the free goods determination. DELIVERY • Each outbound delivery starts at a shipping point, continues along a route, and has ship to party as the destination. These elements are header fields in the outbound delivery. • The SAP system supports the following function within shipping processing: Monitoring of deadlines for reference document due for shipping Creation and processing of outbound deliveries Monitoring of goods availability Monitoring of capacity situation in the warehouse Support for picking (With link to the warehouse management system) Packing of outbound delivery Printing and distribution of shipping documents Processing of goods issue Controlling through overviews of -Outbound deliveries currently in process -Activities still to be performed -Possible bottlenecks Logistics Execution • The logistics process in a company that covers the entire process chain from the vendor through the company warehouse, production facilities, and distribution centers to the customer. • LE process includesThe goods receipt process The goods issue process Internal warehouse process The transportation process Organizational structure: logistics Plant, Storage location, Warehouse number, Shipping point • You can model the structure of a corporate group by using Client and Company codes. A client is often synonymous with a corporate group, while a company code represents an independent accounting unit. Company codes are legally independent from one another. • The plant plays a central role in logistics. A plant is a production facility or a location that handles material stock. It could be a collection of several locations in one general vicinity with material stock, which are known as storage location. Stock is managed at the level of the storage location. • Inventory valuation is done either at company code level or Plant level, however the stock is managed at storage location level. • Several storage locations within a plant can refer to the same warehouse number. As a result, they form the warehouse complex from the point of view of inventory management • The connection of organizational units in the warehouse to MM inventory management results from the assignment of warehouse number to a combination of plant and storage location.

• The organizational unit of WM- warehouse number, storage type, picking are, staging area and door. You can activate lean WM in customizing at the warehouse number. • A shipping point is an independent organizational unit at a fixed location that process and monitor outbound deliveries and goods issue. The shipping point is directly under the client level. • An outbound delivery is processed from a single shipping point. The responsible shipping point is determined in the order at item level. • A shipping point may also be set as a goods receipt point, which means it can also be used for inbound deliveries. Structure Delivery document • A delivery Document has two level- Header and Item. There is no schedule line. The reason is each schedule line in the sales order can become an item in delivery document.

Which item categories are copied from reference document? • You can also specify Under what condition data is copied from the order to the outbound delivery. Under what condition several orders can be combined in an outbound delivery. Which data to be transfer? Whether the reference should be recorded in the document flow. When you copy an order item to a delivery, the system copies the item category of the order item to the delivery. An item category is not specified for order-independent items in the delivery (for Abhishek Parihar SAP SD Certified Consultant E-Mail: abhishekparihar@rediffmail.com

SAP SD IMP NOTES example- packing material), for deliveries without reference to an order (Delivery type LO). In such case the item category determine take place on the basis of customizing setting which is same as that of sales document item category. Delivery item category det. - delivery document type + item category group + usages [DLN (standard item without order) - LO+NORM] Route determination • Route determination is carried out in sales order item and depends on: The departure zone- shipping point (customizing) Shipping condition-sales document type or sold to party The transportation zone- ship to party (shipping tab) The transportation group-material master (general/plant) • In the order item, you can manually overwrite the route that is determined. • You can re-determine the route in the outbound delivery based on the weight (weight group). Whether the route is re-determined depends on the configuration of the delivery type. Shipment or Delivery scheduling • Different Times involved in delivery schedulingPick/Pack Time Loading Time Transportation Time Transit Time • Shipping point calculate: - Pick/Pack Time, Loading Time • Route calculate: - Transportation Time, Transit Time Backward scheduling- system confirms the quantity of delivery on the basis of customer request delivery date. Forward scheduling- system confirms the quantity on the basis of New Material availability date. Precise scheduling-the system calculates and displays the results of scheduling down to minute. If you have maintained the working times of the shipping point, the system performs precise scheduling. Daily scheduling: - the system uses days, hours, and minutes for calculation, but only displays the resulting dates. Route schedule: - the route is used to determine the transportation lead-time and transit time. For Transportation lead-time precise scheduling uses the working times of the shipping point; daily scheduling uses the factory calendar of the shipping point. For the transit time both types of scheduling use the factory calendar of the route to determine when route is used. You can use the route schedule to organize outbound deliveries from a particular shipping point to different ship to party. The route schedule generally contains: Route, Departure date and time, list of ship to party and itinerary (optional) You can use route schedules in sales order, stock transfer and outbound deliveries. In customizing, you define whether a route schedule should be assigned for each shipping point, order type, purchasing doc. type (Delivering plant) and delivery type.

Picking location / storage location determination: - MALA, RETA, MARE • MALA: - determination based on the shipping point, the delivering plant, and the storage location (Material master-plant data/storage 1) • RETA: - Determination based on the delivering plant, situation, the storage condition. • MARE: - First MALA then RETA Options for creating Outbound Deliveries • Each outbound delivery starts at a shipping point, continues along a route, and has the ship to party as the destination. These elements are header fields in outbound delivery. • You can store delivery agreements using the indicators in the customer master record of sold to party or in the customer material information. • If the customer allow order to be combined, the R/3 system combines orders when creating the delivery due list. For this the following characteristics should be same: • Shipping point, Delivery due date, Ship to party, Incoterm, Route • You can create an outbound delivery manually with or with out reference to a particular order. However, if you create a delivery manually, you cannot deliver purchase order or other request. Delivery due list • The delivery due list is a work list of all operations requiring deliveries Shipment • If you use transportation functions, outbound deliveries are grouped together on the basis of user-defined criteria in a document called the shipment document. • Shipment function is optional. You can create a shipment after delivery creation or after PGI. You can invoice the customer for shipment cost. Out bound delivery monitor • The outbound delivery monitor displays all deliveries that are still to be processed or that have just been processed. • You can use the outbound delivery monitor to execute important follow-on-functions in collective processing in the background ( for example-transfer orde creation for picking, or posting of goods issue). Transfer order • A transfer order is an instruction to move material from a source storage bin to a destination storage bin within a warehouse complex. • The transfer order include the information like-material number, quantity to be moved, source and storage bin. • With WM precise inventory management at the level of the storage bin is possible and used for warehouse with random storage. This is not possible with lean WM and hence suitable for fixed bin warehouse. • You can Group Transfer order based on the warehouse number.

SAP SD IMP NOTES
• Automatic or direct creation of transfer order if the systems determine output type WMTA at the header level of outbound delivery when delivery is being created. Batch management setting• Material master-Plant/storage 1 view and purchasing view- Activate batch management. • In customizing- delivery item category, sales item categories (automatic batch determination) when delivering a sales order, this batch is copied to outbound delivery. Then you cannot change batch in outbound delivery. • If a batch has not been specified in the sales order, you can enter one in the picking overview screen of the outbound delivery. You must specify a batch before goods issue. • Batch split function is used if delivery quantities of an item are to be taken from different batches. It can be done manually in batch split screen of delivery item or automatically using automatic batch determination, for this customizing is done in delivery item category. Serial number • You can assign a unique serial number to each material. This is allows you to monitor goods movement for individual materials. • To use serial numbers, enter serial number profiles in the material master record (general/plant and Plant data/storage-2). • Serial number is specified in the delivery item or the order. • You must specified serial number before posting goods issue. Shipping related condition • The outbound delivery can contain shipping-related condition at header level. • You can use the SD pricing technique. • Assign the pricing procedure to the delivery type

Delivery split • When you split a delivery, you create one or more new deliveries, called result and the reminder. • When you call the delivery split, specify a split profile to determine the type of split. Split profiles are define in customizing, and assign to delivery type. Delivery split by warehouse number Delivery split by partner Packing • The packing function is available in –Order (as packing proposal), In the inbound delivery, In the outbound delivery, In the shipment document. Packing control• You define packaging material type and packaging material group. Assign packaging material type to packaging material group. Choose material type VERP for material master and maintain the packaging material group in basic data 1 and sales: general/plant views. However, if this field has not been maintain in the material master, this material can be packed in any packaging materialdepending on the weight and volume.

SAP SD IMP NOTES
• The system can generate a separate item in outbound delivery for each packaging material. For thisYou must set item category determination in customizing. In this context, table entries with PACK usage are relevant. The delivering plant must be determined using the plant determination rule in the packaging material type or must be entered manually. If you want to bill the customer for packaging material, item category should be determined as DLN. If you use returnable packaging material, you must create them in the material master with item category group LEIH (item category TAL is determined). When goods issue is posted, the material is transferred to special stock for the customer. Goods issue • Posting goods issue involves an interface with FI as stock valuation changes. • After goods issue has been posted, there is limited scope for changing the outbound delivery. • The prerequisites for posting goods issue is that picking-relevant item are completely picked (transfer order is confirmed). This means that the delivery quantity and the picked quantity in the outbound delivery must be same. • Goods issue can be posted by changing a single outbound delivery, by collective processing function to select all deliveries for which goods issue is due to be posted, can also use the outbound delivery monitor to do this and at the time of transfer order creation (to choosing adobe quantity 2) • Any errors are logged when, for example, data such as the batch or serial number is missing or when picking has not been carried out fully for these items. In this case, goods issue is not posted. • The goods movement is controlled by “Movement type-601” (schedule line) Effect after goods issueReduce warehouse stock Post the value change to the stock accounts in inventory accounting Enter status information in the outbound delivery. Reduce delivery requirement. Is store in document flow and update status of preceding document Create work list for billing.

Cancel goods issue • If goods issue for an outbound delivery is canceled, the goods issue posting is reset. The system copies the quantities and value from the original goods issue document and carry out an inventory posting based on these quantities and values with a reversed +/- sign. • If the outbound delivery has been fully or partially billed you must first cancel the billing document, then you cancel goods issue. • After goods issue has been canceled, the goods movement status of the outbound delivery is reset to “Not yet started”. This allows you to further process the outbound delivery (Goods issue) as usual. • For each movement type in inventory management, you must define a reversal movement type in customizing. No additional settings are required for movement types used for goods issue posting. Abhishek Parihar SAP SD Certified Consultant E-Mail: abhishekparihar@rediffmail.com

SAP SD IMP NOTES
Quality management • You specify in the quality management view of the material master if a quality inspection is to be carried out for the material. When the outbound delivery is created in SD, QM automatically creates an inspection lot for the delivery items that are relevant for inspection. The usage decision represents the completion of a QM inspection. Depending on the customer, or on the customer and the material together, you can specify if the inspection log must be accepted before goods issue can be posted. You initiate printing of a certificate of quality from output control of the outbound delivery at item level. POD settings • You need to define which delivery item categories are relevant for the POD process. You also need to define reason for deviation, and in the customer master data (sales area- shipping tab) specify POD relevance. • The system creates the billing document based on the correct (verified) quantity. The creation of a billing document using the billing due list is blocked until proof of delivery has been confirmed.

SAP SD IMP NOTES
Condition records • Condition records based on key fields (combination of key fields called condition table) • In pricing condition records you can have a validity period, maintain scale and specify upper and lower limit for manual changes. Manual changes only in this specified limit. • You can define unlimited number of levels in a scale. • You can do mass maintenance of conditions which means that condition records can now be maintained across all condition type and condition tables. • New condition records can be created with the reference of existing condition records. Individual condition records can be maintained manually. • New price function allows you to maintain multiple condition records simultaneously. • You can maintain long text in the condition records for pricing and agreements (rebates, sales deals and promotions) Pricing report • To provide an overview of existing condition records. You can generate a list of conditions for analysis. • When you creating a new program for pricing report, you first decide in which views you want to analyze condition records. You do this by selecting specific fields from the existing condition tables. Depending on which fields are selected, the system will generate a list of tables, which contain at least one of the selected field catalogues. From this list of tables, select which tables will appear in the report. Condition indexes • You can create and use condition indexes to search for condition records that were created for a variety of condition type and condition table. Before you can use the indexes that are delivered in the standard version, you must first activate them in customizing for sales. However, if you create your own indexes, the system automatically activates each new index when you generate it. Condition table • Condition table is a combination of fields, which form key for a condition record. • Each condition table defines under access sequence. • All fields, which are to be used for creating a condition table, must be contained in the field catalogue. It is possible to add additional fields to this catalogue. Release procedure • You can allow a release procedure to be used when a condition table is created by selecting the with release status checkbox. This adds the following fields to the condition table automatically. KFRST-Release status as last key field KBSTAT- Processing status as a field of the variable data part (non key field) • “The release status is set indirectly by defining a processing status in customizing for pricing and assigning a release status to the processing status” • Different statuses are Released Abhishek Parihar SAP SD Certified Consultant E-Mail: abhishekparihar@rediffmail.com

SAP SD IMP NOTES
Blocked Released for price simulation Released for planning and price simulation. Access sequence • An access sequence (search strategy) is defined for each condition type (except header and manual condition type) in pricing procedure. • Each access performed during pricing procedure, the access sequence is made using condition table. • Access sequence is a search key for condition record, which made up of key fields. Condition type • The condition type determines the category of a condition and describes how the condition is used. • The calculation type and scale base type can be controlled for each condition type. • Conditions: - Price, discount/surcharges, freight, taxes • Each condition type you can be set as an automatic surcharge, discount or either. • As well as being determined automatically, condition can also be entered manually in the sales document. You can prevent one condition type from being changed manually by making setting in customizing. Header condition (E.g. HM00, AMIW) • Header conditions are valid for all items. These are automatically distributed among the items based on net value. The basis for distributing the header conditions can be changed in the pricing procedure by selecting the appropriate routine (e.g. weight, volumes) in the AltCBV field (alternative formula for condition base value) Special pricing functions • Group condition:-In customizing you can set a condition type to be a group condition. The condition base value (e.g. weight) is then calculated as the sum of the individual items within one group. E.g.K029 • Group condition with varying keys: -For group conditions with varying keys, item quantities are accumulated for scale point determination purpose but the rate for each item is calculated from its individual condition record. E.g.-K005 • Condition update: -Value can be accumulated in the condition records and tested against limits. In this way, you can set a maximum condition value, condition base value, or number of orders for a condition. For this you must activate condition update switch in customizing for condition type. [Then only these fields visible in condition records] • Condition supplements: -Condition supplements are group of conditions, which are accessed together during pricing. • Condition exclusion Condition exclusion indicator can be set in either the condition type or the condition records. Condition types to be compared are first placed in an exclusion group. During pricing, the conditions which result in the best price (lowest charge or highest discount) are selected from this group. All others are deactivated. Abhishek Parihar SAP SD Certified Consultant E-Mail: abhishekparihar@rediffmail.com

SAP SD IMP NOTES
Special condition type Manual pricing: - (E.g.-HM00, PN00) • Header condition type HM00 allows you to enter the order value manually. The new order value is then distributed proportional the items, taking into account the previous net value. Taxes are determined again for each item. • Item condition type PN00 allows you to specify the net price for an item manually. The original conditions are deactivated. Minimum price: - (E.g. AMIW, PMIN) • Header condition type (AMIW): -you may create a minimum value for each order using condition type AMIW. If the value in the order header is less than this minimum order value during pricing, the system uses the minimum as the net order value automatically. The minimum order value is a statistical condition. Condition type AMIW is a group condition and is divided among the different items according to value. • Item condition type PMIN: -You can create a minimum price for a material using type PMIN. If the minimum price is not met during pricing, the system determines the difference using condition type PMIN Interval scale (PR02)- Scale pricing • You can maintain condition records with interval scales if the condition type is set to scale type D in customizing. Interval scales cannot use for group conditions. Rounding Diff: • You can maintain a rounding unit in table T001R for each company code and currency. Condition DIFF determines the difference amount. Condition type DIFF is a group condition and is distributed among the different items according to value. Customer Hierarchy Pricing • Customer hierarchy are available in sales order management so that you can create flexible hierarchies to reflect the structure of customer organization. • Use Customer hierarchy during sales order processing and billing to determine pricing and running statistics. • A Customer hierarchy consists of nodes. Which are only valid for a certain period of time. They also be moved. If a node is moved, the system automatically reassigns all related nodes and customer master data. • SettingsCreate master records for each node Assign node to each other Assign the customer master records to the relevant nodes. • “With customer hierarchies, you can assign price or rebate agreements to a higher level node” • Customer hierarchy accesses also provide clear and easy master data maintenance because the different condition records for a condition type can be created together in the quick entry screen for maintaining condition.

Discount and surcharges • Pallet discount-KP00, incomplete pallet surcharge KP01, Mixed Pallet Discount KP02, Surcharges for incomplete mixed pallets KP03 Statistical condition type • Condition type VPRS-statistical condition used to retrieve the standard cost of the material has condition category G. it accesses the material valuation segment of material master. • Condition type SKTO- statistical condition used to retrieve the cash discount rate. It has condition category E. Update price • Update prices on the condition screens is available at header and item level ( in sales order and billing) : you can choose the pricing time in a dialog box. Calculation type • The calculation type for a condition type is defined in customizing. This calculation type determines how prices or discounts and surcharges are calculated for a condition. Pricing procedure • The sequence in which the system accesses the conditions by using condition technique in business document is determined in the pricing procedure. • “Requirements, routine and formula provide a method to modify the standard pricing logic to meet unique user requirement” Pricing procedure determination• Sales Org.+ DC+ Division +Document pricing procedure + Customer pricing procedure • Pricing determination is carried out using the condition technique. Requirements (2-Item with pricing, 55- free goods pricing, 59- Free goods) • You need to determine “how the system should use the conditions type” by specifying the requirements. • You are able to make access dependent on requirements to avoid unnecessary access, this reduce the system load. Reference level (Subtotal) • Provides a method to specify a different basis to calculate the condition type and to group condition for subtotal. • Pricing procedure can contain any number of subtotals. Condition type • Are combined in the require sequence in pricing procedure. • Mark a condition type in the pricing procedure as being: A mandatory condition-PR00 Abhishek Parihar SAP SD Certified Consultant E-Mail: abhishekparihar@rediffmail.com

Sales deal and promotion • You can define a promotion or general marketing plan for a product line for a certain period of time. You can then link this promotion with specific sales deals, which themselves linked to special condition records. These condition records can be used for promotional pricing or discounts. Rebate processing Creating rebates agreement: • You may define rebates at as many levels as you require, similar to any pricing condition. • The rebate agreement is created with a specific rebate agreement type. The feature of each agreement type set in customizing (like condition table and its access sequence). • Condition records are linked to the rebate agreement specifying the rebate rate and the accrual rate. Processing rebates • Rebates are different from other discounts in that they are based on the sales volume generated by the customer within a specific period and are paid retrospectively. • A settlement run creates the required credit memo request automatically. • When the rebate- relevant billing documents are processed, accruals can be determined and posted to financial accounting automatically, at the same time, the system updates the rebate basis and the accrual amount on the rebate agreement sales volume screen. • You can use the rebate credit memo to reverse these accruals. Accrual are cancelled automatically when a credit memo is created. • To function properly, rebate processing must be active for: Abhishek Parihar SAP SD Certified Consultant E-Mail: abhishekparihar@rediffmail.com

Sales organization The payer master The billing document Step rebate processing: Rebate processing begins by creating a rebate- relevant billing document. The valid rebates condition type are determined by the pricing procedure using the rebate basis subtotal. Each rebate condition type has an assigned access sequence (set in customizing). The system uses the access sequence to search for the valid rebate condition records. If valid condition records are found, the accrual rate is read. The accrual amount is calculated using the rebate basis. The system posts an accrual to financial accounting and update accrual in rebate agreement same time. Retroactive rebate agreements • Allow you to take into account billing documents created before the rebate agreement is created. • The rebate basis for the billing documents created previously is accumulated and recorded in the rebate agreement. The accrual amount is not automatically updated for billing documents created previously. This amount must be entered manually. Requirements Requirement 24 - In the pricing procedure enforces that the rebate conditions are used only in billing documents. Requirement 25 – In the pricing procedure enforces that the rebate conditions are used only in rebate relevant-billing documents. BILLING Billing overview • A Billing document has two levels-Header and Item • When you create a billing document in account, the R/3 system carries out a debit posting on the customer receivables account and a credit posting on the revenue account. • An important part of billing is the interface to financial accounting. This allows documents to be creating automatically in financial accounting and controlling when you create billing documents. • The data, which can be changed before an accounting document created: Billing date, pricing, account determination, output determination. After posting accounting you can change only output data. • You might not want the data to be transferred automatically for certain billing types. In that case you can set a posting block for the billing type concerned. • Inter-company billing- a sales organization can also sell products supplied by a plant that is assigned to a different company code. Controlling the billing process Abhishek Parihar SAP SD Certified Consultant E-Mail: abhishekparihar@rediffmail.com

SAP SD IMP NOTES
Billing type control • The billing type controls the whole document. • The billing types are used to cover the full range of business transactions during billing processing. • In billing type if “Text Delivery” is switched off, the corresponding SD header/item texts are taken from the order. If the switch is on then it is taken from outbound delivery. • Having following control. Cancellation billing type Number assignment (Internal) Partners Rebate Posting block Account determination Invoice list type Special features of FI interface Basic function (Text, Output) • In customizing, for item category (sales doc.), you determine whether billing is to be carried out with reference to a delivery or an order. The system propose a relevant billing type from the underlying sales document type. For example, in delivery related billing, a standard order (Order type OR) is invoiced using billing type F2. Invoice combination and Invoice split • It is possible to include both order related and delivery related items in the same billing document. • If the header partner or data in the header field are not identical, the system will automatically perform an invoice split. Invoice list: • Each billing type to be included in an invoice list must assign an invoice list type. • You also need to maintain the following master data: 1. Define a factory calendar, which specifies when invoice list are to be created. 2. Enter this factory calendar in the payer master record (Billing screen, invoice list schedule field). 3. Maintain condition record for condition type RL00 for the payer. 4. Create out put condition records for condition types LR00 and RD01. Data flow and coping control • You can automatically fill the reference number and allocation number fields in the accounting document with numbers from SD documents. The reference number is in header of the accounting document and is used for clearing. The allocation number is in the customer line item and is used for sorting line numbers. • In customizing for copy control in billing, you can define which numbered will be copied as reference or allocations: A. Purchase number B. Sales order number C. Delivery number D. External delivery number Abhishek Parihar SAP SD Certified Consultant E-Mail: abhishekparihar@rediffmail.com

SAP SD IMP NOTES
E. Billing document number F. External delivery number if available, other wise delivery number. • When the invoice list is created, the reference number from the invoice list overwrites the reference number from the individual billing document. • Copying requirement are ABAP routines. Before data is copied from the source document to target document, specific requirements must be satisfied at each level of the document. Special billing type Billing type in complaint processing Cancellation: • You do not need to make an entry in coping control for billing cancellations. • When you select cancellations, you branch to an overview screen containing the original billing document as well as the cancellation. Before updating, you can compare both documents in order to avoid any discrepancies during cancellation. Credit and debit memos: • You can create credit and debit memos either to credit or debit memo request (sales document), or, if your company does not require a release procedure in case of complaints, directly with reference to a billing document. • We can also create credit and debit memo request without reference to a previous business transaction. • You can control in customizing whether the system is to set a billing block automatically for a credit or debit memo request. • The responsible employee can: Release the credit or debit memo request after review (by removing billing block). The employee can decide the amount or quantity to be credited or debited. Reject item in the credit or debit memo request and enter a reason for rejection. Invoice correction request: • The invoice correction request represents a combination of credit and debit memo request. • The invoice correction request must be credited with reference to the corresponding billing document (no reference to order or inquiry). • The credit memo item cannot be changed. The corresponding debit memo item, however, can be updated according to new characteristics (E.g. new pricing, change in quantity) • You can delete the credit and debit memos in pairs (unchanged pairs of items can be deleted all at once in this way). Returns • Returns are processed in the same way as credit memo request.

Pro forma invoice • You can create with reference to order or deliveries • This is generally used for export transaction • Do not need PGI before creating delivery related Pro forma invoice.

• You can create as many pro forma invoices as required, since the billing status in the reference document is not updated. • Data from pro forma invoice is not transfer to accounting Cash sale • Order related billing, (BV) the order and delivery are created in one step, although you receive a document for each other. • The goods issue is posted at a later time as a separate transaction so the customer does not have to wait. • Order type CS is used for cash sales. It has its own output type RD03 which allows you to print an invoice from the order. • No output determination, as this has already been carried out in order. • No new price determination, as the pricing should not differ from the printed invoice. • Posting in financial accounting is made to a cash settlement account, not to the customer. • Billing type SV is used for cancellations in cash sales. Special business transactions Billing plan-Periodic billing and Milestone Billing • You can assign billing plan at header level {sales doc. Type} or at item level {sales item category with billing relevance 1} • Periodic Billing Periodic billing is used to spread billing of full amount over several dates within billing plan. Generally use in rental and in service contract. • Milestone billing: In the SAP R/3 System, milestone is stored in a network along with planned and actual project data. Milestone are assigned to the billing plan dates and blocked for billing until the milestone is confirmed as completed. The date proposal is used exclusively for milestone billing. It determines a sequence of dates that are used as the reference for date determination during order processing. Down payment processing in SD • Down payments are already created in the sales order. “ At the corresponding due date, a down payment request (Billing Document) is sent to customer.” • The down payment agreement can be assigned directly to an item, or it can be defined as valid for all items in the order. • As soon as billing date for down payment has been reached the system created a down payment invoice and sent it to the customer. • Tax is determined and displayed automatically when the down payment request is created. • The down payment request (SD) is automatically posted in financial accounting as a down payment request (Posted as a noted item). The item ha special general ledger (G/L) indicator F, which insures that posting, is statistical. Posting is made to a different reconciliation account, Abhishek Parihar SAP SD Certified Consultant E-Mail: abhishekparihar@rediffmail.com
