Condition Types for Minimum Order Value
The standard R/3 System includes two condition types for processing minimum value requirements:

Creating Condition Records for Minimum Order Value
If you use minimum-order-value requirements, you must create condition records for condition type AMIW. In these condition records, you specify customers and the corresponding minimum order values. During pricing, the system automatically uses these condition records as a reference for determining the relevant minimum order surcharges (condition type AMIZ). In the standard version, condition type AMIZ refers to AMIW. This means that the system automatically calculates values for AMIZ conditions; you do not need to create separate condition records.
You may want to specify minimum order values by sales organization or division instead of by customer. In order to do this, your system administrator must define a new condition table with the appropriate fields in the table key. The condition table can then be included in the access sequence for condition type AMIW.
