Hi Vaibhav,
Following are the steps you need to follow for pricing.
Reward if this helps you...
PRICING (PG)
This concept is based on condition technique.
It’s the combination of:
1)     Condition Tables
2)     Access Sequence
3)     Condition Types
4)     Pricing Procedure
1. Condition Tables: - Condition table contain the key fields for maintaining condition records.  I.e. in other words condition records are stored in condition table.
Note: - A condition type can have multiple condition tables.
Note: - A condition table can be used for multiple condition types.
Defining condition tables: -
SPRO
Sales and Distribution
Basic functions
Pricing
Pricing control
Define condition tables [V/03]
Create condition tables
Enter a table number beyond 600
From the field catalogue, which is there on the right side of the screen select the required key fields.
To get the valid on / valid to fields while maintaining the condition records we need to check the field “with validity period”.
Go to icon Technical View
The fields which are marked, as footer field appears at the footer level at the condition records and the remaining fields appears at the key level.
Select the Icon Generate for generating the condition table.
To save the condition table, select the button Local object.
2.     Access Sequence: - Access sequence is a search strategy with the help of which the system gets the valid condition records.  It contains the required condition tables in the required order.
Note: - If required an access sequence can be used or assigned to multiple
Condition types.
Note: - The order in which the condition table are placed in access sequence
is important generally it is most specific to most generic
Defining Access Sequence: -
SPRO
Sales and distribution
Basic functions
Pricing
Pricing control
Define access sequences
Maintain access sequences
Go to new entries and define the access sequence.
Select the defined access sequence and go to accesses.
Go to new entries and place the condition tables in the required order
While placing the condition tables check the field “exclusive”.  By doing so if the system finds a valid condition record in the first condition table it will not go to the next condition table
Select the condition table and go to fields the system gives the warning message “the field assignment has not yet been made” say enter till we get the fields.
Repeat the same step for all the condition tables and save it.
Note: - After defining the access sequence assign it to the corresponding condition type.
3. Condition Types: -
Defining condition types: -
SPRO
Sales and Distribution
Basic functions
Pricing
Pricing control
Define condition types.
Maintain condition types.
Functionality of a condition type: -
Access Sequence: - In this field specify the corresponding access sequence for the condition type.
Condition class: - It is the preliminary structuring of condition types.
Ex: - Surcharges or discounts and price
Plus/Minus: - If we specify negative here a condition type becomes discount and if we specify positive it becomes surcharge.
Calculation type: - Determines how the system calculates price discounts and surcharges in a condition type.
For Ex: - the system can calculate a price as a fixed amount or as a percentage based on the quantity, weight, or volume.
Condition Category: - It’s a classification of conditions according to pre-defined categories.
Rounding Rule: - The rule that determines how the system rounds of condition values during pricing.
Manual Entries: - Indicator which controls the priority with in a condition type between a condition enter manually and a condition automatically determined by the system.
Amount / Percent: - If we check this field the amount / percentage of a condition type can be change during the document processing.
Quantity Relation: - Specifies whether the conversion factors for the units of measure in the condition type can be change during document processing.
Delete: - If we check this field the condition type can be deleted during the sales document processing.
Value: - If we check this field the condition value can be changed during the document processing.
Calculation type: - If we check this field the calculation type can be change during the document processing.
Item condition: - If we check this field for a condition types it becomes item condition, which has to be enter at the item level only.
Header condition: - If we check this field for a condition type it becomes header condition, which has to be entered at the header level only
Ex: - RB00 (Discount).
Note: - After entering the header condition type click on the button activate.
Note: - The condition amount of the header condition is copied as it is to all the line items in the document
Group condition: - If we check a header condition as a group condition the condition amount is distributed proportionately among all the line items in the sales document.
Valid from & valid to: - specifies the beginning and ending of the validity date that the system automatically proposes when we create condition records for the condition types.
Scale Basis: - Determines how the system interprets a pricing scale in a condition, for Ex: - the scale can be based on quantity weight and volume.
Check value: - Indicates whether the sale rates must be entered in ascending or descending order.
Note: - Header condition won’t be having access sequence.
4. Pricing Procedure: - Pricing procedure contains all the required condition types in the required order.
Defining Pricing Procedure: -
SPRO
Sales and Distribution
Basic functions
Pricing
Pricing control
Define and assign pricing procedures.
Maintain pricing procedures
Go to new entries and define the pricing procedure.
Select the defined pricing procedure and go to control data
Go to new entries and place the required condition type in a specified order.
Step: - Specifies the number that determines the sequence of a condition type with in a procedure.
Counter: - Specifies the sequence number of a condition type with in a step in the procedure.
Condition type: - Specify the condition type.
From & To: - If you specify the reference steps in these fields, the condition values of the two steps specified and the condition values of the steps in between are totaled.
Manual: - If we check this field the condition type is only included in determination either if they are entered manually or if they are transferred from an external process such as costing.
Mandatory: - Indicates whether a condition type is mandatory when the system carries out pricing using the pricing procedure.
Statistical: - This indicator causes a condition type to be set in the document statistically only.
Print ID: - Controls the issue of condition lines when printing the documents such as order conformations or invoices. [X]
Sub Total: - Controls whether and in which fields the condition amounts or subtotals are stored.
Requirement: - For the condition type to be executed in the sales document the requirement specified here must be satisfied. [2]
Alternative calculation type: - Specifies the alternative formula to the calculation type in the standard system that determines a condition.
Alternative condition base value: - Specifies the formula for determining the condition basis as an alternative to the standard.
Account key: - This field along with few other fields enables the system to post the sales values to different General Ledger Accounts.
Ex: -
ERL          Sales Revenues
ERS          Sales Deductions
ERF          Freight Revenue
Accruals: - This is exclusively for rebate condition types. [B001 & B002]
Key, which identifies various types of General Ledger accounts for accruals posting.
Note: - to maintain the requirements and routines use the transaction code
[VOFM]
Pricing Procedure Determination: -

Define and Assign Pricing Procedures.
Define Pricing procedure determination [OVKK]
We have to assign the pricing procedure to the combination of Sales Organisation, Distribution Channel, Division, Document Pricing Procedure and customer pricing procedure.
Sales Organisations     Distribution Channels     Divisions     Doc. Pricing Procedure     Cus. Pricing Procedure
1000     10     00     A     01 & 02
2000     12     00     A     01 & 02
