VOFM Condition Value


Condition value formulas are available to influence the condition value that is displayed for a particular condition type or value line in the pricing procedure. In standard pricing, the system will calculate the condition value by multiplying the condition rate by the quantity. For example, 100 cases times $45 per case equals $4,500. Using a condition value formula, it is possible to alter the condition value, in our example $4,500. Condition value formulas can also be used to compute values that should appear as value lines in the pricing procedure. As an example, standard delivered condition value formulas can be used to compute profit margin and item net value. A condition value formula is assigned to a condition type in the pricing procedure. When looking at the code for the standard delivered condition value formulas or when writing your own, XKWERT is the field name that the condition value should be assigned to. Following is a description of the condition value
formulas delivered in the standard system related to SD.


CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 1: PROFIT MARGIN WITH REBATE
Formula '1' sets the value equal to the pricing subtotal '3' minus the cost of the line item.

Example:
A company offers rebate agreements to their customers that are paid out at the end of the year based on cumulative sales. On a sales order, rebate agreement accruals show up as a statistical amount and do not effect the net value of the line item. The company, however, would like to see the profit margin in the line item reflect the expected rebate payments. In order to accomplish this, the user assigns the subtotal field '3' to the relevant condition types in the pricing procedure so it's value equals the net value as well as the value of any rebate accruals. The condition value formula '1' is then assigned to the ‘Profit Margin' line in the pricing procedure. Note that subtotal '3' is just an example supplied by the system. Another subtotal could be used and the user would then copy this formula and create a new one that uses the other subtotal value. If rebate accruals should not be included in the profit margin calculation, the user would select condition value
formula '11'.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 2: NET VALUE
Formula '2' sets the value equal to net value that has been calculated so far for the item in the pricing procedure. It contains the amount excluding taxes.
Example:
A company would like to show subtotals in their pricing screen that would represent the gross value, net value, and net value 2. These are all value lines in the pricing procedure that do not correspond to a specific condition type. To determine the value for these value lines, the user assigns the condition value formula '2'. The system then shows in these subtotal lines the net value of the line item up until that point in the pricing procedure.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 3: CASH DISCOUNT MINUS TAX
Formula '3' sets the value equal to the amount eligible for cash discount minus tax.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 4: NET VALUE PLUS TAX
Formula '4' sets the value equal to the net value plus tax. This can be assigned, for example, to a value line at the end of the pricing procedure that should show the final value of the line item.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 5: PROFIT MARGIN DIALOGUE
Formula '5' provides an example of how a message can be displayed if the profit margin for a particular item is below a predefined percentage. To use this feature, the user would copy formula '5' into a new formula and assign the relevant percentage to the field MINDEST_PROZ.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 6: INITIAL PRICE
Formula '6' was delivered to support net price processing. For additional information on the use of this formula along with examples, please refer to Note 80183.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 8: EXPECTED VALUE
Formula '8' provides an example of how the system can compare the customer expected value of a line item with the net value computed by the system. If the system net value is not within a value range of 1 of the customer expected value, than the item is blocked. Formula '8' was delivered along with the condition type EDI2 for customer expected value. Users can copy this formula and specify their own value range tolerance in the field MAXIMUM.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 9: EXPECTED PRICE
Formula '9' provides an example of how the system can compare the customer expected price of a line item with the net price computed by the system. If the system net price is not within a value range of 0.05 of the customer expected price, than the item is blocked. Formula '9' was delivered along with the condition type EDI1 for customer expected price. Users can copy this formula and specify their own value range tolerance in the field MAXIMUM.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 11: PROFIT MARGIN
Formula '11' computes the profit margin for a line item. This is done by subtracting the cost of the item from the net value. This formula can be assigned to a value line at the end of a pricing procedure to show the profit margin for the item.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 13: MINIMUM VALUE SURCHARGE
Formula '13' computes the applicable surcharge when the order value (before taxes) falls below the predefined minimum order value. This formula was delivered with condition types AMIW (used to define the minimum order value) and AMIZ (used to compute the surcharge if the minimum is not met). Within the pricing procedure, formula '13' should be assigned to condition type AMIZ. In addition, the subtotal 'D' must be assigned to condition type AMIW in the pricing procedure.
Example:
A company would like to define minimum order values for their customers. As an example, a minimum order value of 200 USD is defined for Customer A. If Customer A places an order for anything less than 200 USD (before taxes), the system should automatically compute a surcharge equal to the difference and apply it to the order. To accomplish this, the user would configure pre-delivered condition types AMIW and AMIZ in their pricing procedure as defined above and maintain a condition record for AMIW and Customer A equal to 200 USD.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 14: BEST PRICE
Formula '14' can be used to select the best price in a pricing procedure when more than one condition type to determine the price has been configured.
Example:
A company quotes prices based on weight as well as number of cases. In the pricing procedure, they have maintained two condition types for the price. Condition type ZWGT is listed first and computes the price based on the weight. Condition type ZCSE is listed second and computes the price based on the number of cases. When pricing is done, the system should automatically select the best price for the customer. To accomplish this, the user assigns condition value formula '14' to condition type ZCSE in the pricing procedure. Using this formula, the system compares the two. If the case price is more expensive, then the ZCSE condition line is set to inactive. If the case price is less expensive, then the ZCSE condition line remains active causing the ZWGT condition line to become inactive (active subsequent price in the pricing procedure).

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 15: MINIMUM PRICE
Formula '15' was delivered along with condition type PMIN to define minimum prices.
Example:
A company has defined minimum prices for materials. When a material is sold, it should not be sold for a price below the predefined minimum price. When pricing is done for a sales document line item, if the net price of the item falls below the minimum, the system should automatically compute a surcharge to bring the price up to the minimum price. To accomplish this, the user would define the minimum prices using the condition type PMIN. PMIN would be defined in the pricing procedure and condition value formula '15' would be assigned. Using the formula, the system compares the minimum price with the net price calculated to that point in the pricing procedure. If the minimum price is not met, the system computes the necessary surcharge and assigns it to the PMIN condition line.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 16: ROUNDING THE TOTAL
Formula '16' was delivered along with condition type DIFF to support the rounding unit rules that can be defined in T001R for company code / currency combinations. Condition type DIFF was delivered to perform the rounding at the end of the pricing procedure with the total value. Using formula '16', the system computes the rounded value and assigns the difference to the condition type DIFF.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 17: ROUNDING AS PER T001R
Formula '17' was delivered so that a condition value could be rounded off according to the rounding unit rules that can be defined in T001R for company code / currency combinations. When formula '17' is assigned to a condition type, the condition value will always be rounded using T001R.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 18: PERCENT CONTRIBUTION MARGIN
Formula '18' computes the percent contribution margin for the line item comparing the cost and net value of the item. This formula can be assigned to a value line at the end of a pricing procedure to show the percent contribution margin for the item.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 19: P-VARIANT RITTER
Formula ‘19’ is used to support the calculation of the net price. For additional information on the use of this formula along with examples, please refer to Note 80183.
CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 20: P VARIANTS DISCOUNT
Formula ‘20’ is used to support the calculation of the net price. For additional information on the use of this formula along with examples, please refer to Note 80183.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 25: KZWI1 MINUS TAX
Formula '25' computes the value of the condition line to be equal to the value in subtotal '1' minus tax. Formula '25' was delivered along with condition type NETW to compute the value of the goods when tax is part of the price. Reference standard delivered pricing procedure RVAB01 'Tax included in price'.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 36: CUMULATION CONDITION
Formula '36' enables the user to display the total of the net values of an item and all the sub-items belonging to that item. This formula was delivered along with condition type KUMU. This condition type can be assigned to the pricing procedure along with formula '36' to display cumulative values when main and sub-items are used.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 37: TAX EXEMPTION LICENSE
Formula '37' was delivered to support tax exemption licenses in Italy. This formula should be assigned to the condition type for tax exemption licenses in Italy (R/3 delivered condition type LCIT) in the pricing procedure. For additional information on tax exemption licenses, please refer to Note 72040.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 38: EXCLUSION WITH VALUE ZERO
Formula '38' sets the value of the field AUSSCHLUSSWERTNULL to 'X'. This formula was delivered in order to support condition exclusion where conditions with a value of zero should be considered in the exclusion. For additional information, refer to Note 39641.

Example:
A company has two condition types in their pricing procedure that represent surcharges. A condition exclusion group has been defined with these two condition types indicating that the lowest of the two should be applied. In some cases, one of the surcharges may be zero. This could be due to a condition record that is found or a manual entry. In order to have the system consider zero as the lowest surcharge for the customer, condition value formula '38' must be assigned to one of the condition types in the pricing procedure.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 47: VAT FRANCE
Formula ‘47’ was delivered to support tax exemption licenses in France. This formula should be assigned to the condition type for tax exemption licenses in France (R/3 delivered condition type LCFR) in the pricing procedure to support this functionality. For additional information on tax exemption licenses, please refer to Note 72040.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 48: CHECK DOWN PAYMENTS
Formula '48' was delivered to ensure that the down payment amount the user offsets in a billing document does not exceed the actual down payment value. Condition value formula '48' is assigned to the condition type in the pricing procedure representing down payments (R/3 delivered condition type AZWR). Down payment functionality was delivered with R/3 Release 4.0.

CONDITION VALUE FORMULA 61: PREFERENCE MAX VALUE
Condition value formula '61' was delivered to solve a field overflow problem that can occur when working with preference determination. This can occur due to the quantity dependency. Formula '61' is assigned to the preference condition type in the pricing procedure (R/3 delivered condition type PREF). Also reference condition base value formula '61'
