In this IMG activity, you determine the product proposal procedure for background processing.
Note:
The procedure can be determined both online and in the background together. For example, the system can determine materials from the order history in the background but access all the other data sources while online. Note that if you use both types of determination, the data should be cumulated in the same period type for both.

The product proposal procedure is determined according to the customer determination procedure and the sales area from the customer master record.

If you want the system to access several different data sources, SAP recommends that you process in the background. This reduces the system load as much as possible while processing sales documents online.

When you generate the product proposal in the background, the volume of data can be very large because the product proposal is stored at both customer and sales area level.

The standard system contains the SD_DPP_READ function module for reading the product proposal from the database. If you generate a product proposal using background processing, you need to specify this function module in the access sequence for the online procedure. Only then can the system display the product proposal during sales document processing.

Warning:
When using the condition technique to generate product proposals in background processing (for example, in material listings or exclusion), only use fields that are known to the system at the time of generation. You cannot use fields that can only be determined once you process the sales document (for example, sales office, sales group, division, item category, or plant).
If you combine background determination with determination in the Online site, the function module SD_DPP_READ must always be listed as the first function module in the Online procuedure.

Recommendation

Activities

  1. Define the product proposal procedure determination for background processing.
  2. Schedule the "Generate Product Proposal" report (SDPVGEN) for background processing. You will find this report in the SAP menu, under Logistics --> Sales and Distribution --> Sales --> Environment --> Generate Product Proposal.
  3. Create a variant for the selection criteria. The report SDPVGEN is used to generate the product proposal. The report creates, in accordance with the selection criteria, the product proposal procedure. Here, the access entered is carried out, and the result is written in a table and stored in the database.
