Pricing Procedure in Product Hierarchy

Can someone help me with an example of Pricing in Product Hierarchy.

If you are an SD consultant (you are one, yes?), you should know your tables and fields. Because you can't do a lot of customizing without that.

But if you want an example here goes. Say, you want to base your pricing procedure on first three digits of product hierarchy, defined in the material master, via condition technique.

Pricing structure for line item is KOMP. A quick look thru KOMP structure (tx SE11) shows that you have only PRODH field for all 18 digits of product hierarchy, whereas you need only the first three. So you do the following:

1. Create the new data element ZZPRODH1. Also create a domain with the length "3" and the data type "CHAR" for the new data element. Remember that new data fields must start with the letters "ZZ" or "YY", since SAP reserved these letters to protect them from being overwritten during a release upgrade.

2. Check whether the product hierarchy (PRODH) is found at header or at item level. In table VBAP, document field PRODH is defined as an item field.

3. Integrate the field name ZZPRODH in the communication structure KOMP using the INCLUDE KOMPAZ and allocate the data element PRODH to it.

4. Activate the structure.

5. Check in which table the field PRODH exists.
The field is in table VBAP (sales document: item data).

6. Assign a value to the new field in the FORM routines for sales order processing and billing using the appropriate user exits: In sales order processing the user exit is found in member MV45AFZZ. The complete statement is:
FORM USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMP.
MOVE VBAP-PRODH(3) TO TKOMP-ZZPRODH. ENDFORM.
The routines for assigning a value to the new fields in billing are found in member RV60AFZZ. The statement is as follows:
FORM USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMK MOVE
XVBRP-PRODH(3) TO TKOMP-ZZPRODH. ENDFORM.

7. Allocate the specifications A, V and 001 to the field ZZPRODH in table T681F. Use "E" has been added for fields in rebate processing.

This is a standard example from SAP Library. In this case you must tell the ABAP three things:
- that your source field is VBAP-PRODH,
- that you need to get the first three digits from that field into your pricing structure KOMP
- and that you need to specify the transfer by user exit thru MV45AFZZ

Please note that this is a very simple example. Quite often you have to dig a lot deeper.

Modifications of Copy Control routines, making output forms (thru SapScript) and such requires you to know all the necessary tables, structures and fileds.

The only advice I can give you is to use tx SE11, which will show you the organisation of a table/structure, and can also help you check the contents of a specific table in a specific sales doc.
