Dynamic Product Proposal
A product proposal is a list of products for a specific customer that is automatically proposed during sales document processing. You can decide for yourself which materials should be displayed as product proposals in the sales document. You can also determine the sequence in which the materials appear in the product proposal.
During sales document processing, the system displays a product proposal in the item overview according to the customer and the business transaction. It displays the material number, material description, and historical order quantites in the sales unit last used. To use a material again, you just have to copy it. The system does not run the standard checks (pricing, availability, incompletion, material determination, free goods determination and so on) until you have entered the order quantities.
The product proposal is both an entry help and an aid to sales support and promotions. It is particularly useful in Telesales, where the employee automatically receives a display of all the materials that are of interest to a particular customer. This helps them to provide appropriate advice to the customer quickly and easily. The sales document history enables you to analyse the purchasing behaviour of a customer and recognize early on if it changes, for instance, when the customer suddenly stops ordering a product.
The product proposal differs to cross-selling in that it is dependent on the customer and sales area, and is displayed in the sales document as soon as you have entered a customer. Cross-selling, on the other hand, is triggered by a material. In other words, the system proposes cross-selling materials according to the material or a characteristic of the material you have entered.
You can determine the product proposal from different data sources:
     Order history
     Listed materials
     Excluded materials
     Item proposal
     Customer-material info records
     Customer-specific data sources
You can combine materials from these data sources to create a product proposal. The system then accesses the data sources either online or in the background.
To define a product proposal for sales document processing, you must carry out the following activities in Customizing:
     Define customer procedure for product proposal
     Define document procedure for product proposal
     Assign document procedure for product proposal to order types
     Maintain table of origin for product proposal
     Define product proposal procedure and determine access sequences
     Maintain procedure determination (in background) for product proposal
     Maintain procedure determination (online) for product proposal
The product proposal procedure determines how the system displays the product proposal in the sales document. For instance, if the system has accessed the order history, it determines how many columns should be displayed in the sales document, in which period intervals thehistoric order quantities should be displayed (for instance, day, week, or month), and most importantly, the sequence in which the system should access the data sources (for example, order history, listing, exclusion).
The product proposal procedure depends on the:
     Customer determination procedure
The customer procedure determines which product proposal procedure the system automatically uses when you create a sales document for a particular customer.
It is specified in the customer master record per sales area.
     Document determination procedure
The document procedure determines which product proposal procedure the system automatically uses for a certain document type. The document procedure is stored as a key in the header for the sales document type.
If you use online processing, the product proposal procedure is determined according to the customer and document determination procedures.
If you use background processing, the product proposal procedure is determined according to the sales area in the customer master and the customer determination procedure. It does not use the document determination procedure because the document type is not recognized in background processing.
It will help .

Item proposal

Dear Gurus
can any one tell me the configuration of Dynamic item proposal
Thanks in advance
Sneha Reddy

hi sneha,
In sap SD we have 2 different item proposals. One is the normal one whch is the item proposal which is done through VA51. In this normally we maintain for a particular customer a list of products with the required numbers. This you can use as a reference in the sales order for fast order creation. This you can do in IMG-sales & distribution-basic functions-item proposal. Item proposal can also be referred to as product proposal.
The second one is the dynamic product proposal which is somewhat different thing from normal item/product proposal. This is also in IMG-Sales & distribution-basic functions-dynamic product proposal. Follow all the steps mentioned in that. To explain what is dynamic item/product proposal - it is a tool in SAP SD which is used to get the customer's buying behaviour. The effect will be like this: when you enter the customer the system will display the list of items which the customer has purchased before. So if the customer has stopped buying a specific product then it can be used by the management to discuss it with that customer. The config for this you will get it in the IMG. In this you can mention that the previous sales of that customer should be taken for reference. But go through all the fiels in the Config.
For normal Item proposal follow these steps:
1. VA51- select the documnet type as MS, enter the customer number(sold to party number), then enter the required material and the required quantities. Then save it. The system will give you an internal number.
2. Go to XD02, select the required sold to party for whom you have maintained the item proposal, go to sales area data, sales. Now in sales you have a field for item proposal here you enter the number of that item proposal and then save it.
3. VA01 create the sales order. When you have entered the sold to party, the PO number , the PO date. Now on the menu bar select edit and in that PROPOSE ITEMS. Now after this the system will ask you with quantity or without quantity means if you select without quantity then the items will be displayed in the item data but you will have to enter the quantiy for each item.
I Hope I have answered your query. Please reward valuable points if solution found useful.

Difference between Item Proposal and Dynamic Product Proposal

Dear All,
What is the difference between Item Proposal ( VA51) and Dynamic Product Proposal?
Thanks and Regards
Deepak Joshi

Hi,
In item proposal when u enter the details in the sales document you have to click on propose items to get the list
the customer regularly purchases.
While in dynamic product proposal once you specify the sold to party and press enter , system automaticall gives you
the list of the materials the customer regularly purchases, it a faster way of entry than item proposal.
please let me know if i am wrong.
Thanks,

How to configure item proposal

Hello Gurus, i'm trying to configure item proposal...but can't see the effect on VA01..i've created VA51 record for item proposal and then assigned in XD02 at sales in sales data....is there any thing else i've to still do...so that when i put the partnet function-SP number in VA01...it should give the message or record of the existing item proposal? Please correct me if i'm wrong. Thanx

Hi,
Item propsal is a list of materials which you can call up during the order entry.
You create the item proposal by trazaction VA51.
Where as Dunamic Product Prossal( which you are refering as Product proposal )is dynamic order entry tool.
Dynamic Product proposal can be determined by different data sources as below.
Order history.
Listed materials .
Excluded materials .
Item proposal .
Customer/material info records .
Customer-specific data sources.
In the dynamic product proposal You can combine/exclude materials from different data sources mentioned above.
Say for example, you could combine the total of all materials in the last n-sales plus all materials in certain item proposals, but excluding those specified in the exclusion.
Dynamic Product Proposal is called /determined as soon as you enter the sold party in the order.
You can reach IMG customising steps by
IMG >SD>Basic functions>Dynamic Product Proposal .

Siddharth.

Now I am getting the below mentioned error :
1)     If I do not run report SDPVGEN the sales order material created after running this report does not comes while create a new sales order
2)     While creating the sales order for the same customer material numbers are automatically coming in the sales order without quantityu2026u2026. According to me it should not come directly in sales order it should give the selection screen to select the material with quantity
3)     It does not consider material which is in material listing, if no any order is created for that material number
4)     Its not taking in to consideration to item proposal material automatically, to get the item proposal material in newly created sales order I need to press CNTRL+F1
Kindly Help.

hi,
1) sdpv is the report you need to generate for the explosion of Dynamic product proposal into the sales order.
2) Dynamic product proposal is an extension to Item proposal, in Item proposal you have to click " propose items"
button to display the selection and so on........ however, in DPP system will automatically retrieve the data
using the Function module and source you have mentioned say " order history " without quantity.

Dynamic product proposal

Hi,
I am working on ECC 6.0.
When I am working with the Dynamic product proposal in the sales order for a customer who is asssigned
active,the order quantity is not getting copied from the second sales order.However it is only copying the nelwy added materials
and not the order quantity.
It is only copying the order quantity of the materials which are existing in the first sales order.
I am using the FM SD_DPP_HISTORY.
Note : To copy the items entered in the previous sales order then I configured dynamic product proposal (DPP) in the IMG->SD->Basic Functions->Dynamic product proposal
you can configure for online sales order creation or background sales order creation
maintained the functional module SD_DPP_HISTORY in the access sequence of the product proposal procedure
and maintained the PP cust. proc. (customer product proposal) in the sales area data ...
sales tab of the customer master data
Thanks in reply.

Manohar S

Ben,
Thx, but Ive already assigned the value there and it does not work. All the settings in customizing under Dynamic Product proposal are made. But when I enter a customer in VA01 nothing happens. And as I understand it based on customer and document type, automatically a proposal can be made. Instead of adding the proposal by hand, by selecting an item proposal.
I read somewhere that you can activate product proposal but in the sales order screen (Edit Display range Product proposal active inactive) , can not be used (light grey). There is something that Iam missing, but what..?

Issue with item proposal

Hi All,
I have an issue with item proposal. This issue is as follows:-
I created a item proposal for a sale area. I created it for around 10 items with no qty.
Now I create a sales order. When I create a sales order, i get an info message that dynamic credit check is exceeded. I just press enter and then I choose.... Edit----additional functions-propose items.. And then I give the item proposal number and click on the selection list button. The system shows me all the 10 materials with no qty. I select a material A and give the qty in the qty column of item proposal and then click on "copy" qty" button. the system copies the material to the sales order but it does not copy the qty.
Why it is not copying the qty from the item proposal to sales order for material A ?.The system is not giving any message too after copying the material to sales order (qty not copied) .There is no exlusion list maintained too for the material A and customer
I tried for other materials by giving qty in the item proposal and the system is copying the qty from item proposal to sales order.
why qty of material A is not copied to sales order.
regards

Settings for Item Proposal and Product Proposal

Hi Gurus,
How to do the configuration settings for Item Proposal and Product Proposal.
I also want to know what is the difference between Item Proposal and product Proposal.
Give me your Solution.

Item proposal is the list of regularly/frequently ordered items of a particular customer. this will be useful when u are entering the sales order. it will be used to speed up the order entry process.
For that Goto VA51, enter item proposal type as MS and sales area details.
enter the customer name and the list of products and save. Assign the item proposal No in the customer master sales area data, sales tab.
create the sales order and enter the customer no and press the propose items button in the sales order.
the system will propose one box and it will display all the materials. then u can continue further.
Product proposal:
To configure product proposal, Go to IMG,SD, Basic functions, Dynamic product proposal, Maintain all the settings

Item proposal is the list of products the customer used to buy frequently.
Product proposal is also the list of products but it will explode in the sales order, once u enter the sold to party field. But this will be based on the following criterias.
Order history
Listed materials
Excluded materials
Item proposal
Customer-material info records
Customer-specific data sources

Error while creating an Item Proposal

Hello Experts,
When I am trying to create an Item proposal (T Code VA51 for order type PV) , after entering the Description , Validity dates, Material and Qty, while saving system is issuing an hard error " Sold to Party is not maintained in the sales area".
While creating an item proposal why would the system check for the Sold to party? I have checked the forum for such an error message but could not find any. Please help me in resolving this issue.
Regards
Sai

Thanks for your inputs. There is some additional enhancement in the system to check the sold to party during order processing in the program SAPMV45A. That is causing this error.

Copy Quote discount price with 'line item proposal' in VA01

Hi Expert
Does anyone know how we can use 'line item proposal' to copy discount prices from Quotation into Sales Order via VA01?
We want to copy all line items from a previous quote into new sales order, in our test all line item details was copied across except discount prices (condition type ZPM2). Any idea how we can include the discount prices in the copying.
Any suggestion will be appreciated
Thank you

As already, mention in previous post
this would not copy pricing.
It will only copy material & order quantity.
By using copying control VTAA, I intended to say.
You should create a sales order with reference to Quotation. For this you need not make any modification to existing standard configuration for copying control for VTAA ( Target: OR & Source: QT ), which will take care of your requirement.

Dynamic Items - Restoring values on error

I've got a page with some dynamic items. When I display a error on the page the values do not restore to reflect changes that the user made, rather the values stored in the DB. This makes sense as my code does not check to see if a error occurred.
I'd like to check if a error occurred and if it did I can restore the user changes using the htmldb_application.g_fxx(x) function. So I'm wondering how do I know if a error occurred? i.e. is their a variable like the REQUEST variable which will be set if a error occurred?
Now a bit on a side topic, when dealing with error validation of dynamic items I run into the following issue. I do the validation through one pl/sql check. It checks that all the fields have values in it. Imagine there are 5 fields (1 through 5), and the first 2 are empty. My error message says "Field 1 is empty... Field 2 is empty"... That all works but the page just says "1 error has occurred" and I have to list all the problems under that 1 error. I'd like it say "2 errors have occurred" instead. How can I do that when I only have 1 validation function? Is their a variable that I can increment for each error I find?

Handling dynamic item data in VSTS

Hi Team,
Can you please let us know how to handle dynamic item data in VSTS.

Hi Raghavendra,
Based on your previous threads posted by you in the test forum, I doubt that you want to create the coded UI test, am I right?
If so, which kind of app did you want to test, WPF or others? Could you share us a screen shot about the real UI controls you want to test? What real Controls you want to test, list item controls or others?
You know that to find a control in coded UI test, we have to use the unique peoperties as the search properties, so if your controls are dynamic, the real issue would be related to the search properties you use in your code.
Like this case:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/4c4805f0-230d-459d-a3e5-61e62746c5b9/list-box-item-is-not-get-selected-while-play-back-the-recorded-script-in-coded-ui-test?forum=vsautotest
As Pankaj's suggestion, if the list items are dynamic then you can use the index values instead of the innertext, so the real issue would be related to how to use the search perperties in your side. If you item text value is dynamic, you'd better not
use the text value as the search properties.
About "How does “Coded UI test” finds a control ??", reference:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/balagans/archive/2009/12/28/9941582.aspx
If I have misunderstood this issue, please feel free to let me know.
