In this step, you define how alternative determination is to run from the sales point of view. This is relevant, for example, for pricing, which is controlled by the item category of the SD document.

In the IMG for Sales and Distribution (Basic functions -> Pricing -> Pricing control -> Define pricing per item category), you define how pricing is to run. The item category controls, for example, the type and scope of pricing, as well as invoicing and inventory posting.
Some of the item categories that are defined in the SAP System are:

  • inquiry item (for the pre-sales period)
  • standard item, free-of-charge stock item, text item (for standard orders)

Standard settings

For inquiry items, the standard setting for the application is Sales and Distribution (SD01). This setting is defined such that a fixed alternative is determined as per a certain date. You define this alternative in the step "Define alternative determination for multiple BOMs".

Requirements

First complete step Define applications .

Actions

Enter an application for each SD document item category.

For multiple BOMs, you can also define per item category whether the user is to have the option of choosing an alternative manually. If you allow this option, the selection screen for BOM alternatives is displayed.

Note:
You define pricing for the SD document item categories in the IMG for Sales and Distribution in the step Define pricing per item category.
