Margins are characteristic factors in sales price calculations. They are used to clarify the gross revenue.

The margin is the difference between the sales price (gross) and the purchase price (net/net), expressed as a proportion of the sales price (gross).

The gross margin is calculated as follows:

The net margin is calculated by substituting net sales price for gross sales price in the above equation.

The margin (gross/net) is displayed in the SPABR/SPANE list field of the pricing table.

In the pricing table, you can display the margins with the current valid sales prices (old margin (gross, net)) as well as the margins for the newly-performed calculations in the SPABA and SPANA list fields respectively. In the equation above, the newly-calculated sales prices (gross, net) are replaced by the sales prices valid on the price determination date.

In two-step pricing for wholesale, the retail margin (list field EVSPA) is also calculated. Here, the difference between the retail price and the final price is expressed as a proportion of the retail price.
