Definition

Indicator stipulating that during price determination of sales conditions, the system is to check whether the unit of measure for the condition record determined differs from a preassigned (sales) unit.

Use

Within the condition technique, it is possible that in price determination for a specific sales condition (see condition type), the condition unit of a determined condition record may differ from a (sales) unit that was preassigned for price determination (see example).

If the indicator is set, however, such condition records with a different unit of measure are treated as invalid.

Dependencies

If the system finds condition records with different units of measure, the program logic for the application that calls price determination determines how such a condition record is to be dealt with. Generally (in the sales order, for example), the price determined (condition amount) is converted to the preassigned (sales) unit.

Example

There are two main cases in which such differences occur:

  • The condition table for the sales condition does not have a key field for the (sales) unit. This means that the prices are not differentiated by unit of measure. The price entered applies to all units of measure for the material.
  • The condition table has a key field for the (sales) unit, but the unit of measure in the condition record is different. Tiles, for example, can be sold by the box but the price is usually entered in square meters. In a sales order, the price for the box is calculated from the price defined for a square meter, using the conversion factor entered in the material master.
