Answer / rajiv trivedi

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.

Answer / rajiv trivedi

Hi,

I am giving best examples to cut above story in short with
right examples so you can understand faster. This may be
perhaps better explaination which Ifeel

AltCty - Condition formula for alternative calculation type:
• It is again a Routine that is written by ABAP Consultant.
• It is an alternative formula for the condition type that
can be used instead of standard formulas.
• For example, let us take the Profit Margin which can be
both + / - , so here this routine will help us in
generating the value which can be either + or -. Profit
margin is not a condition type so it cannot be classified
as +ve or -ve in the V/06.
• Ex.: 950 0 Profit Margin 11.
• So we assign 11 - Profit Margin.
• If new routines are to be defined we follow the procedure
given below.
o Go to T.Code: VOFM. - Maintain Requirements & Formulas
•
o Click on the "Formulas" and then on the "Condition
Values".
o We have a list of routines, we can ask ABAP consultant to
create new routines based on the client requests.
o And we assign the application type.


AltCBV - Alternative formula for condition base value:•
Formula for determining the condition basis as an
alternative to the standard.
• It is again a Routine that is written by ABAP Consultant.
• It is used as a basis to calculate value of the condition
type instead of using it from the "FROM" column.
• Ex.: Freight - KF00.
• Freight is calculated based on weight, volume etc. and
not on the base price. In pricing there is no entry of
weight from which the value can be referred like we do for
discounts using base price. We have to get the value from
the Material master.
• In this column we can mention the value as 12 - Gross
Weight or 13 - Net Weight.
• During pricing, the system will consider the value that
is mentioned in this column and determine the freight based
on this value.
• Suppose we have Net weight: 100 kgs and Gross Weight: 150
kgs. And if we mention 13 in this column then the Freight
condition KF00 will be calculated using the weight as 100
kgs.
