Use
If the condition update function is active for a particular condition type, you can create condition records that specify a maximum cumulative quantity. The system uses the condition base value of an item as the basis for the cumulative quantity. In most cases for the condition base, this involves a quantity. It is also possible to enter maximum quantities in weight and volume for a condition record.
You could, for example, specify that a customer receives a 10 USD discount for a particular material up to a maximum cumulative order quantity of 5,000 cases. As the customer places sales orders for the item, the system keeps track of the cumulative value (in this example, the number of cases) and stores this data at the condition record level. Once the cumulative value reaches 5,000 cases, the system automatically deactivates the discount.
Specifying the Maximum Quantity
You can specify the maximum quantity when you maintain an existing condition record. The calculation type of the respective condition type must be defined as quantity, weight, or volume dependent (otherwise the necessary field will not appear in the condition record). The condition update indicator must be maintained in Customizing for Sales for the corresponding condition types.
To specify the maximum quantity:
You reach the Sales Master Data screen.
Viewing Update Data in the Condition Record
To view the cumulative quantity (condition basis) for a particular condition record:
A dialog box displays the cumulative base value (in this case, the quantity) of sales orders where this condition record was used.
