Use

In this Customizing activity, you can define data source routines for data retrieval. A data source routine is the data retrieval method that is executed at price determination time for an individual parameter. SAP delivers the following defaults:

  • Classification in SAP ERP
  • Referenced Condition Rate

If you want to access data from data sources that differ from the above ones, you can define your own data source routine.

You can use your own data source routine when you have to define the data source routine of a parameter in the parameter catalog.

Requirements

You have created an implementation of BAdI definition BADI_PR_CPF_DATA_SOURCE.

0.000.000 - 0.009.999 General CPF routines
