Definition

Planned markups are percentage supplements that reflect the profit a company wishes to make by selling the article, as well as the general cost components. Planned markups are modeled in the system as condition types of condition class A (markups or markdowns).

Use

Planned markups are used in conjunction with sales price determination type A (markup calculation procedure) to determine a suggested value for the sales price in the sales price calculation function. You can display the planned markup in the PAUFS list field of the pricing table.

The planned final price without rounding to price points (list field PENDP ) and the planned final price including rounding to price points (list field PENDR ) are calculated using the planned markup for all sales price calculation types. In sales price determination type A , the planned final price with rounding to price points and the suggested value for the sales price are identical.

For further information, see Sales Price Determination .

To calculate sales prices using the markup calculation, select an appropriate sales price determination sequence with sales price determination type A in the selection screen for sales price calculations.

Integration

Condition type AUFS in the supplied reference calculation schema WWS001 serves as an example of how the planned markup is used in a sales price calculation schema. For more information, see Using the Condition Technique in Calculations and Price Determination

You can take cost components that can be directly assigned to an article, such as sales costs, into account using condition types that have been specifically designed for this purpose. An example of using condition type KV00 (sales costs) is also to be found in the supplied reference calculation schema WWS001 .

You can use planned markups not only in one-step price calculation, but also for the second step of two-step price calculation for wholesalers (planned retail markup).

For planned markups, as for other condition types, you can define condition records at a variety of data retention levels. You use the standard condition technique to do this.

In the standard system, the condition types AUFS (planned markup) and EVAU (retail markup) are available for planned markups. The levels distribution chain/merchandise category and distribution chain/price list with price list currency/merchandise category are provided for condition records (see access sequence VKWG ). You can maintain these planned markups starting from the initial screen of Pricing. To do this, choose  Conditions Planned markup or Planned retail markup and then Distribution chain or Price list .
