Alternative Calculation Type:
Good Question. This answer is 100% correct so please read
carefully & you will get 100 marks.
Normally if you want to calculate a value you have to use a
calculation type for determination the value. This
calculation type is either addition, subtraction or
multiplication. Similarly SAP also has got a default
calculation type in the control data of the condition type.
There you have the options of either Qty based , Fixed
Amount Based or Percentage based.
Here what happens is suppose if you define Your condition
type that calculates the base price of a material on Qty
based. Then the calculation will be done based on the
quantity of the material. If the customer orders 10 Nos and
you have maintained a unit price of 100 Rs for each
material then the value determined is 1000 INR. Similarly
if the discount condition type , you maintain the
calculation type as %. This means if you maintain the value
of 10 % in the condition record. Then this percentage is
taken as the calculation type and the condition value is
determined.
In some cases you have to forego the default calculation
types and use the customer specific method for calculating
a value. For ex if you are calculating the Freight charges
for a Material . it depends on so many criteria like, the
weight, volume and also the minimum amount etc etc, in
those cases, you forego the default value and then use the
alternative calculation type in calculating the condition
value against the particular condition.
Alternative Condition Base value :
If you have to calculate any value then you have to have a
base value for it. For ex if you want to calculate the
discount of 10 % for a material then you have to have a
base value on which this 10% is calculated. Normally you
take the condition value of the base price of the material
to calculate the value.
Now you don't want to take the base value and take other
values as base value which are derived on some formulae. So
you create a routine which will do the mathematical
operations in the routine and derive you a value which is
now used as the base value for calculating the condition
value for a particular condition type.
