Overviews

An overview defines a certain view of several condition records of different condition types. For example, you can define an overview which only displays the terms of payment of certain condition records and displays them for maintaining. An overview can consist of any number of views where the initial view and the sequence of the remaining views must be defined.

The control of condition records is simplified and maintenance time reduced by the option to define variable views of condition records.

Each overview consists of two parts:

• The static part contains the condition type and the fields of which the condition table key is made up.

• The dynamic part contains the data which changes depending on the selected view. You define this part for the definition of the overview in Customizing.

Overviews are used in different functions (for example, maintenance of sales deal, extended selection of condition records using the condition index). Customer-specific overviews can be created if required.

Example

You have created condition records for a material price PR00 and for a discount K007. Using an overview, the condition records can only be displayed or displayed for processing if the terms of payment are specified.
