SAP Minimum Order Value Pricing And Conditions

Use

You can specify a minimum order value for sales order processing. The following example illustrates how this function is used:

• You specify a minimum order value of USD 200.
• During sales order processing, the net value (after discounts and freight, before taxes) of an incoming order is USD 190.08.
• During pricing, the system determines that the net value falls below the minimum order value and calculates a minimum-order-value surcharge. In this example, the surcharge equals USD 9.92.
• The minimum order value and the surcharge appear as separate lines in the pricing screen. The minimum value is for information purposes only, and does not affect pricing. The system automatically adjusts the net value of the order (before taxes) to the minimum value allowed.

Condition Types for Minimum Order Value

The standard R/3 System includes two condition types for processing minimum value requirements:

Condition type	Name
AMIW	Minimum order value
AMIZ	Minimum value proposal

Creating Condition Records for Minimum Order Value

If you use minimum-order-value requirements, you must create condition records for condition type AMIW. In these condition records, you specify customers and the corresponding minimum order values. During pricing, the system automatically uses these condition records as a reference for determining the relevant minimum order surcharges (condition type AMIZ). In the standard version, condition type AMIZ refers to AMIW. This means that the system automatically calculates values for AMIZ conditions; you do not need to create separate condition records.

You may want to specify minimum order values by sales organization or division instead of by customer. In order to do this, your system administrator must define a new condition table with the appropriate fields in the table key. The condition table can then be included in the access sequence for condition type AMIW.
