Changing Time-Dep. Conditions Collectively (Condition Index)
Use
You can change time-dependent conditions and their validity periods, administrative data etc. in info records, contracts, or vendor scheduling agreements on a collective basis.
If you use condition indexes, you can define criteria (e.g. vendor/purchasing organization) by which conditions are to be selected yourself.
The conditions to be processed are selected via condition tables, which are created in Customizing.
