A duplication condition is a condition which is specified for a sales document item (via a condition record or entered manually) and which is then copied to all the subitems of the item during pricing. For this reason, it is practical to use duplication conditions for bills of material and configurable materials only.
For a material 4711, a duplication record of 10% is specified as a condition record. Material 4711 has the components 4712 and 4713. During entry in the sales order, a duplicate discount of 10% occurs for components 4712 and 4713 in pricing.
Duplication conditions must always be percentage conditions (the calculation type in the condition type is "in percent").
Duplication conditions cannot be used as header conditions.
The condition value of a duplication condition cannot be changed manually in the condition screen.
When copying a sales document into a billing document, the condition rate of a duplication condition (that is the percentage rate) is "frozen". This means that when copying, regardless of the pricing type, the condition is not redetermined.
The condition type DUPL is delivered as a default duplication condition. This condition type is indicated as a duplication condition in the field Structure condition.
The condition type DUPL must be entered in the required pricing procedure.
If pricing is not carried out for the higher-level item, but any duplication conditions should be passed on, requirement 002 (query of pricing relevancy) should not be entered for the duplication record in the pricing procedure.
