Define Condition Types

In this IMG activity you define

condition types.

You use the condition types to define which types of resource prices exist in the SAP R/3 System. These can be:

• Absolute amounts

• Percentage values

• Manually specified prices

• Prices determined by the system using search strategies (for example, from the material master data)

To determine which fields the system chould check to find a valid condition record, you enter an access sequence in each condition type.

Note

It is not possible to edit scale prices in resource planning.

The system can only take material prices from the material master for the resource valuation if you have entered a material in the Resource Master Data.

• Condition types are not relevant if you have entered a price in the material or base object master record. In this case, the system always uses the material or base object price to valuate the resource consumption.

Recommendation

• Do not change the condition types contained in the SAP standard version. Instead, you should copy them and make any necessary changes in the copy.

• If you define your own condition types, the key should begin with "Z" (user namespace).

Standard Settings

The following condition types are stored in the standard delivery:

• CQ01 Resource prices

• CQ02 Resource price for materials

Activities

If the condition types supplied by SAP do not meet your requirements, you can define your own condition types.

Notes for transport

To import standard settings for resource planning, you can use a function in Customizing under Controlling -> General Controlling -> Production Start-Up Preparation -> Transport Planning Settings -> Import Standard Settings for Resource Planning .
