Use

A pricing condition is an agreement on prices, discounts, surcharges, and so on, that is determined depending on selected influencing factors (for example, customer, customer group, product), and is valid within a specific time period.

Maintenance of individual pricing conditions is integrated in the maintenance of certain master data. Condition maintenance can be called up from the following objects:

Product master

Business partner

Business partner hierarchy

Purchasing and sales contract

Marketing planner

Transaction Tax Engine

Key Account Management

CRM Service

XIF interface

The condition maintenance group in Customizing controls the condition types/tables that may be used in which master data.

You can also transfer the pricing conditions from SAP ECC. For more information, see Data Exchange for Conditions.
