SAP recommends that you define the standard SAP pricing procedure RVAA01 as default pricing procedure. However, you can enter your own pricing procedure as the default. You can also define other procedures for specific organizations in the organizational roles (transaction VELORO). These procedures then override the default procedure (see also: The Concept of Roles).

There are three types of price:

• Gross listed price (action Create vehicle) as list price for the configured vehicle without dealer discounts and other discounts
• MM price (action Create purchase order) and SD price (action Create sales order) SD and MM prices are formed from the gross price, the variant prices for the individual configures characteristics and, where appropriate, the discounts.

• Conditions and Pricing (SD) and
• Conditions and Pricing (MM-PUR-VM)

1. Create gross prices for the vehicle that has not been configured – once in sales (SD) and once in purchasing (MM).

Sales: transaction VK11, condition type PR00, key combination material with release status; enter sales organization, distribution channel and material.

Purchasing: transaction MEK1, condition type PB00, key combination material info. record; enter vendor, material and purchasing organization.

2. Create object characteristics for pricing in your characteristics group – one in sales (SD) and once in purchasing (MM) (transaction CT04) and assign them to your class (transaction CL04).

These characteristics must have multiple values and are not allowed to be displayed. The characteristics do not have any values.

Enter the following on the tab page Additional data: table name SDCOM (structure that links to the SD order) and field name VKOND for SD characteristics; table name MMCOM (structure that links to the purchase order) and field name VKOND for MM characteristics.

3. Create a description (transaction CU01 and enter description, status released and, if required, a dependency group and the dependency type procedure). Link the configuration characteristics to the price characteristics using object dependencies. Example:

$SELF.SD pricing characteristic = 'Variant condition for configuration characteristic_1 and characteristic value_1'
IF configuration characteristic_1 EQ 'characteristic value_1'

Please ensure that the characteristic values are included in inverted commas. Each expression must be completed with a comma, except the last one.



If you have created the keys for variant configuration with small letters, you must also use small letters for the object dependencies. Likewise capital letters.

You can find further information under Dependency Syntax: General Rules.

You can also use variant tables to link the configuration characteristics to the price characteristics (see also: Variant Tables).

4. Create a variant condition with a price for this characteristic value for each configuration characteristic and each possible value – once in sales (SD) and once in purchasing (MM).

The price determination data is now complete. However, this data is not available in the IPC until it has been transferred there (see: Downloading Data to the IPC).
