Strategy "Exclusive Access Sequence" 

Consider the following access sequence

Condition table

Key

Indic. "Exclusive"

001

Sales organization customer number

set

002

Sales organization

not set

 

with access to the following two condition tables:

Condition table 001

Sales organization

Customer
number

Partner function

Transmission medium

Language

Processing time

0001

Company1

Sold-to party

2 Fax

English

Immediately

0002

Company2

Sold-to party

6 EDI

German

Night

Condition table 002

Sales organization

Partner function

Transmission medium

Language

Processing time

0001

Sold-to party

1 Print

German

Immediately

0002

Sold-to party

1 Print

English

Immediately

 

This definition of the condition components leads to the following scenario at message determination:

In sales organizations 0001 and 0002, the order confirmation is normally printed in English or German immediately at order entry, and is addressed to the sold-to party. If, however, the sold-to party in sales organization 0001 is "Company 1", an order entry will cause the order confirmation to be faxed in English, and not printed in German. If the sold-to party in sales organization 0002 is "Company 2", it will cause a German order confirmation to be sent by EDI, but it will not be printed in English.

Condition table 001 is evaluated before condition table 002. A diagram illustrating this example can be found in: Message determination: Processing condition component hierarchies

Setting the exclusive indicator in condition table 002 will not change the process. This is because in example table 002 the last table is the access sequence.
