Condition Technique refer to the method by which the system determines output/pricing from information stored in condition records. In SD, the various elements used in the condition technique are set up and controlled in Customizing. The components of condition technique are:
o Condition Tables
A condition Table consists of one or more condition keys and a data part. The condition keys can be selected according to the data combination for which a message is to be found. The key fields come from the field catalog.
Condition Table contd.
Condition Tables Contd

o Do not change any standard Condition tables. o If needed new condition tables are to be created. Copy an existing
condition table and make the necessary changes.

o Choose the name between 501 to 999. o Enter a description for the condition table. o Select the desired fields from the field catalog. o Generate the table. o Specify the condition tables in the access sequences.
10

o Output Types:
It represents different outputs such as Order Confirmation, delivery notes and etc.. Assign it to the access sequence. Provide a description Detailed data Output Type, Time, Partner Function, Condition Access, Print Parameters. Do not change the existing types copy them and change instead.

o Access Sequences:
Is the search strategy which the system would use to search for condition records valid for a condition type. Has to be a four digit alphanumeric name which is unique. A short description. Detailed data Sequential number, table (condition table) Do not change any standard sequence, copy and change instead.

Exclusive Flag controls whether the system stops searching for a record after the first successful access for a condition type within an access sequence.

o Procedures
It defines the Condition Types and the Sequence that it should be processed.

Procedures Contd..
Step - Number that determines the sequence of the conditions within a procedure. Counter Access number of the conditions within a step. During automatic pricing the system takes into account the sequence specified by the counter.
20
Procedures Contd..
There is some more flexibility to Control the Output Types from VOFM Routines. For instance, we dont want to issue a PO acknowledgement unless the delivery block is unblocked in a Sales Order.
