In this step, you configure whether the consignment prices for vendor consignment goods are are processed using purchasing info records (new procedure) or consignment price segments (old procedure).

As of Release 4.0, both procedures are supported.
After Release 4.0, only info records will be used.

Activities

If you have just started using the system for Release 4.0, you do not need to carry out any activities here.

If you were already using the system prior to 4.0, you can continue to work with consignment price segments for the time being. In the course of 4.0, you will have to convert the consignment price segments to info records. After conversion, you will no longer be able to maintain consignment price segments.

If you convert the consignment price segments to info records in the course of 4.0, proceed as follows:

  1. The report RM06IBKI is contained under Conversion file create consignment price segments in info records. The report creates a sequential file from the consignment price segments for the subsequent creation of the consignment info records.
    If you have many consignment price segments, SAP recommends that you run the report as a background job.
  2. The report RM06IBI0 is contained under Create batch input for consignment info records. The report reads the sequential file created in the last step and generates a batch input session to create the consignment info records.
    You can process the batch input session via System -> Services -> Batch input -> Edit.
  3. The report RM06IMKI is contained under Set deletion flag for consignment price segments. You use this to set a deletion flag for the converted consignment price segments.
    You can physically delete the consignment price segments marked for deletion from the database using the reorganization program for special stocks (Material master menu -> Other -> Reorganization -> Special stock/batch).
  4. Do not activate consignment prices using info records until the conversion programs have been completed successfully.

Further notes

Consignment info records have the following advantages over consignment price segments:

  • You can define consignment prices in foreign currencies. The currency in which the order is placed with the vendor applies for consignment withdrawals.
  • You can determine period-specific consignment prices.
  • You can specify the consignment price in any unit of measure. The conversion factor is defined in the info record.
  • You can also make use of other condition functions used in Purchasing, such as discounts and price quantity scales.

Notes on transport

In this step, you maintain the table TCURM. This table activates/deactivates key functions in the client. It:

Since the automatic transport of an indicator could activate/deactivate other functions, you cannot use the automatic transport function here.

Maintain the Customizing function manually in the target system.

For the first Customizing transport to a target system that is not yet productive, you can transport the table manually. To do this, you must include the entry R3TR TABU TCURM in the transport request.
