depending upon organizational setup and policies. Cutover planning is highly site
specific. There's no thumb rule. The stock data as on the date of going live should
be correctly entered. But stock being a highly dynamic quantity, the strategy for
loading should be crystal clear. Then you have to load all the back dated transaction

stock is actually delivered to your customer through sales orders of various kinds.

Questions
This Scale At Vk11 For All Possible High Values. I Need To Determine That
For Each $100 There Is A $3 Discount. How Do I Configure This?

New routine in VOFM->Formulas-> Condition value. There you divide
quantity by 100, and multiply the integer part of result by 3.
New condition-calculate type-G-formula.
Input condition in your pricing procedure and input AltCTy (Condition

Question 51. I Have Two Condition Types For Cost. One Is Customized And
The Other Is Vprs. Their Values Are Determined Correctly In Sales Order. A
Problem Arises When I Create The D/o And Billing Document. The Condition
Type Vprs Is Incorrect With Value '0,' While The Customized One Is Correct.
What Is The Cause Of This?
Answer :
The VPRS is a valuation condition, normally the cost of goods sold. If it comes from
the material master record, it is a standard valuation price. However, if it comes
from the information record, it is the very cost of goods sold. You may have a
difference from the price you valued your material at and the real cost of purchase.
Check if you have a standard value in your master record or if you have a relevant
info record. Another possibility is your customized condition is undoing the VPRS.

Pricing And The Other For Taxes. When I Am Trying To Do A Sales Order,

Procedures And The Condition Types?
Answer :
The pricing procedure is determined according to: sales area, customer pricing
procedure field in the customer master (sold-to), document pricing procedure field
in the sales document type. You may need to identify the criteria to determine the
right pricing procedure when you enter a sales order. The transaction code to define
pricing procedure determination is OVKK. Normally taxes are included in the actual
pricing procedure, as part of the determination of the actual price (including taxes)
the customer will pay. Taxes need to be calculated based on the given prices in the
pricing procedure.
Question 73. When We Create A Bom Through Cs01, What Effect Does Bom
Usage Field Have On Subsequent Configuration? For Example, If We Take It
As 1=production Or 5=sales What Effect Will It Have On Subsequent
Processes?

A sales usage means that production will not see it, and a production usage means
that sales will not see it. The components each may or may not be saleable, but as
a sales BOM is intended to explode onto a sales order, a non-saleable item on a
