Vendor Declaration Aggregation by Trading Goods

Use

This function aggregates the vendor declaration indicators for a material and assigns a preference code without performing a preference calculation. The system uses the preference code this function identifies directly in sales and distribution (SD) documents. Because this function is a short-cut to determining the preference code, use it if you need to determine the preference code for only a few materials.

The function assigns preference codes as follows:

If the vendor declaration indicator is

Then the assigned preference code is

B – a valid declaration exists

or

C – a valid, long-term declaration exists

C – the salable part may benefit from preference and the price has no influence

A – the system has not checked the declaration

or

D – the vendor declaration is not valid

D – preference is generally not authorized
