Documentation

Definition

Indicator for controlling the break-weight calculation

Use

If the scale indicator is set, the system calculates the price by using the next higher scale level. The condition basis is changed accordingly.

Procedure

Two condition types must be used during break-weight calculation

1. The first condition type 'XXX1' uses scale basis 'D', for example. The indicator is not set when the scale is assigned. Condition records are created for this condition type.
   
   In pricing, the usual scale determination is carried out for this condition type.
2. The second condition type 'XXX2' cross-references condition type 'XXX1' (can be set using fields reference condition type and reference application).
   The indicator is set as the scale is assigned.
   This condition type uses the same condition records as 'XXX1'.
   
   In pricing, a different scale determination is carried out for this condition type (next higher scale level). The condition basis is changed accordingly.
3. The most cost-efficient option is transferred to the document via assignment of a exclusion procedure for the calculation procedure and a corresponding condition exclusion ('more reasonable of the two exclusion groups').

Examples

Two scale levels are to be compared using break-weight calculation:

1. The condition record has the following weight scaling
   
   tons (from) 0 | 5 | 10 | 15 | 20
   ------------------------------------------
   price per 100 kg 25.00 | 20.00 | 15.00 | 12.00 | 10.00
   
   A weight of 9,250 kg is to be calculated.
   Weight is rounded up to the nearest 100 kg.
2. Calculation results:
1. standard scale determination:
   scale level: 5 TO
   condition basis: 9,300 kg
   result: 1,860
2. scale determination (average weight):
   scale level: 10 TO
   condition basis: 10,000 kg
   result: 1,500
