Condition Types

The condition type is at he heart of the condition technique in SAP R/3. Essentially, a condition represents a major aspect or representation in R/3 of pricing activity in your organization. For example, there may be a condition type for the basic price of a material, there may be another condition type to determine a material discount, a customer discount, or a sales promotion. A material’s price might then be determined by a combination of condition types used within a pricing procedure.

To examine existing condition types, as used in an order, do the following:

• Pull up a previously created order
• Click in the box to the left of the item.
• Select Item –> Pricing F7 from the menu.
• Click on the button and examine the header of the next screen.
