Pricing not determined based on Customer hierarchy

Hi All,
I searched the forum for the specific issue, but could not find a proper solution.
I have a specific scenario where we are migrating from 4.6C to 6.0. The hierarchy is already maintained in 6.0 version in a way which we need to adopt it. The level 1 in 4.6 C would become level 5 in ECC 6.0. The pricing procedure is adopted as per the 4.6C version where the key field for discounts are maintained as Customer hierarchy level 1 as level 1, now when we are raising a sales order, for none of the levels the price is getting determined, even though the price determination field is checked in the customer master. The system says initialized field, it is not able to trigger the HIENR01, HIENR02, HIENR03 field, even though the pricing records are maintained.
Looking for your feedback.
Thanks & Regards
Aravind

Aravind,
Even though the price determination field is checked in the customer master. The hierarchy may be out of sync. You can verify this by looking at table KNVH for 1 of your hierarchy nodes and viewing field prfre. This is required to = X for the hierarchy fields to be populated during order entry. If you find that it is blank and out of sync with the customer master, then you need to go into Process Customer Hierachy(VDH1N), enter your highest level node and execute, Once in the maintenance view of the hierarchy, click in menu hierarchy-> Update programs-> All; this will sync up the hierarchy from the customer master and make these pricing relevant. You can verify in this screen as well by looking at the 'Relevant for Pricing' flag is set. Hope this helps.

Dear Ram,
It can be possible through development.Basically in standard sap system will determine the pricing based on Sold to party Customer pricing procedure.
In Your case system has to determine pricing procedure from other partner function.This can be achieved by development.
Thank you,

Automatic Storage Location determination based on Customer in SO Creation

Hi Guru,
We have the scenario where some customer goods need to be out from the bonded WH, and Some customer will always take the goods from General WH, can i know if there is a way to maintain the default storage location based on which customer?
Thank you very much,
Regards,
Chee Wee

Dear Chee Wee,
First, Storage location will not be defaulted in Sales order with std system settings. Still if you want to automate storage location , you have to use exist.
Include: MV45AFZB
Form Exit: USEREXIT_CHECK_VBAP
Based on Customer you can bypass sales process ( whether goods can procure externally or produce internally),
but not default the storage location based on Customer.

Organization data determination based on custom partner entered in transactions

Hi Folks,
I want org data determination to happen based on a custom partner(say sales rep) entered in my transaction.Which rule is the closest so that I can apply the same.
Regards
Jaya

Hi Jaya
As your Business Partner is custom, then you'll need to create a custom Determination Rule anyway.
So in SPRO under Organizational Data Determination - Maintain Determination Rules.
Take a look at rule 10000280 - REG_SERV_04, it's probably still not a great fit, either way create the rule, copy the function module to a Z version and then adjust the code to incorporate the Sales Rep look-up.
Then you can assign the Rule to your own Organizational Data Determination Profile
Hope this helps get you started in the right direction.

Pricing not determined in Delivery

Hi All
We want pricing of Sales Order to be copied in Delivery. We assigned the Pricing Procedure to our Delivery Document in
customising. Now when we try to create delivery with ref. to Sale Order the pricing is coming perfectly fine, but the Tax (VAT / CST ) is not coming.
When analysed the Condition of Delivery, it shows that that for the condition type of VAT / CST the Delivery Plant region is missing.
How this is possible? As the same condition type is determining the correct value in sales Order and there it is getting the Region of Plant but not in delivery. Plant is available in delivery and the region is also maintained there.
I am working on ECC6.
How to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance
Amitesh Anand

All the conditions of pricing procedure is not applicable for delivery document. This is intermediate document,
hence material price is applicable just to use this document as Challan.

Customer Hierarchy Determination in Sales Order Header

Hello Gurus,
I am trying to determine how the customer hierarchy is being determined in the sales order for our instance of SAP. I can see 1D..1H get populated as partners so five levels are being bought in with 1H being the highest. The confusing part is how come 1A..1C is not being populated with any data. Wouldnt the system start at 1A and populate to 1E the five levels. Instead the partners for hierarchy are starting at 1D. How does the system not populate 1A as start point? Is each hierarchy nodes somehow linked to 1A..1H?

Did the hierarchy been assigned in t.code OVH4? If not, assign and test by creating a new sales document.

Authorized Partners for Release Orders with customer hierarchy

Hello everyone,
      I have created a value contract with order type WK1, in the order type WK1 configuration, choose rule B for check partner auth. field, namely we want to use
customer hierarchy to detemine the sold-to-party for the follow-up release order. Also I have created the customer hierarchy with hierarchy type A. There are
four levels under this hierarchy, it contains four customer nodes and four customers. Every customer is belong to a customer node. The partner determination
for the customer hierarchy have alredy done, I can see the customer hierarchy "1D" at the partner tab of header in the contract, but when I release the sales
order against the contract, input a low-level customer number, still got the message "partner X is not authorized to release from contracts.".
     I want to know if I missed some settings in order type configuration or the copy control from WK1 to OR. If this scenario need integrate with CRM system? I
have found some related information, just list below:
    Partners in the hierarchy (Rule B)
If the partner who wants to release against the contract is the sold-to party of the contract or at a lower level in customer hierarchy to the sold-to party in the contract, the system accepts the partner as the sold-to party for the release order.
If rule B is defined for the contract type, you can search for authorized partners for a release order using the contract number. Equally, you can search for the relevant contract for a release order using the partner number. In this case, the partner authorization rule is irrelevant.
Prerequisites
If you wish to use group hierarchies other than pricing hierarchies to determine authorized partners, you must have created a hierarchy category and a hierarchy:
To create the hierarchy category, go to Customizing for CRM under Master Data --> Business Partner--> Business Partner Group Hierarchy.
To create the group hierarchy, go to the SAP Easy Access Menu and choose Master Data --> Business Partners --> Maintain Group Hierarchy.
Note that you can only create group hierarchies in the SAP GUI and not in the People-Centric user interface.
You must have activated the necessary settings for the sales contract and the release order in the IMG for CRM. For more information, see Transactions ---> Settings for Contracts -->Define Settings for Authorized Partners.
Thanks!

Batch Determination based on date of consig recieve

Hi,
I am getting problem when i am trying to do manual batch determination in the outbound delivery.
I have created a record in VCH1 based on customer/Material/Plant. In this i have maintained a sort rule also. what characteristaics i must use to make my batch determination based on customer consignment recieving date?
If i go in MSC3n with Material, Plant and batch data then in the screen ( table MCHA, MCH1) onlt data available is for ERSDA, LAEDA and LWEDT.
In delivery when i click on batch determination button. my Sort rule is not automatically determined. So i have to maunally entered my soirt rule but at the same time my qty proposal in the same screen is 1 which is nothing but
FORM CHMVS_001.
DATA: lv_line TYPE kondh-chasp VALUE '1'.
LOOP AT disqty.
    CHECK lv_line <= no_of_split.
    IF QUAN_TO_DIS > 0.
      IF DISQTY-AVAL_QUAN > QUAN_TO_DIS.
        DISQTY-QUANTITY = QUAN_TO_DIS.
      ELSEIF disqty-aval_quan > 0.
        DISQTY-QUANTITY = DISQTY-AVAL_QUAN.
      ENDIF.
      IF disqty-quantity > 0.
        quan_to_dis = quan_to_dis - disqty-quantity.
        MODIFY disqty TRANSPORTING quantity.
        ADD 1 TO lv_line.
      ENDIF.
    ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
ENDFORM
When i am taking characteristics LOBM_VFDAT for sort rule in Cu70 then i am not getting batch determination as i required even if i maintained Shelf expiry date in MSC3n.
Please suggest where i must look into so that my batch determination would be based on date of consignment recieved.. currently if it s taking based on max qty available in MMBE.
Regards
Nitin

I have already assigned sort rule in VCH1 but dont know which Characteristics i must assign for customer consignment stock on FIFO basis. Could you please tell me the characteristics for it which i must consider?
LOMB_VFDAT i have already tried but its not working for me.

PLZ provide Scenarios pertaining Customer Hierarchy..

Hi All,
Can u plz provide/explain the Business scenarios pertainng Customer Hierarchy which cna be configured.
I have configured the basic settings pertaining Customer hierarchy but want to know where all is it used.
THNX in advance,
Subbz..

hi,
One use of customer hierarchy is in pricing
You use for example customer hierarchy when you have an company like Unilever and you agree both on a discount. Unilever does have different locations / businesses and you have to maintain the discount for all customers. If you use a customer hierarchy you can maintain the discount for the partner in the top of the hierarchy and in this way it will be valid for all customers in the hierarchy.

Pricing determination not possible after updateing customer master data

Hi Gurus,
We are trying to set up CRM 7.0 standard sales scenario to make it to work. We picked a BP, a sold-to party which was loaded from ECC. Changed the role to sold-to party, and added the sales area data that we have in CRM. Added currency "CAD" to the "billing' tab as well. However, when we create a standard sales order (TA), we picked this BP as sold-to, and also picked the right product, we also made sure the pricing procedure determination config is done. However, system keeps giving the error "item category cannot be determined", and the "currency" and "pricing procedure" fields in the header section remain blank.
It seems to us that system needs some sort of refresh to "see" the new configuration data. Don't know why. I remember in other projects we did, we had to wait overnight to see some pricing/org. data updated.
Can someone advise how to fix it without having to wait till the next day?
Many thanks!
Jerry

About buffer problem - yes, organizational data must be refresh if they are changed. You can clear buffers with /$sync.
About your error "item category cannot be determined", i would say that you are missing the customazing. check settings under spro>crm>transactions>basic settings>define item category determination (and also 3 options before that one).

Customer Hierarchy Partner determination in a Sales Order using Payer ?

Dear SD Experts/Gurus
We use Customer Hierarchies extensively in Sales Orders for Pricing & Rebates and it all works fine.
The Hierarchy structure consists at the bottom level of a SoldTo linked to a Hierarchy Customer and many SoldTos can have the same Hierarchy Customer.
We set price conditions at the Hierarchy Customer and that all works fine.
We would like to change our Customer Hierarchy to link the Hierarchy Customer to the Payer rather than to all the individual SoldTos.
This is because we have many SoldTos linked to 1 Payer and this will allow us to have simpler Customer Hierarchy structures making it easier to setup and maintain.
I have changed the SAP configuration to do this and I can certainly maintain the Customer Hierarchy without any problem using transaction VDH1N.
But when I create a Sales Order, the Hierarchy Customer does not get pulled through to the Sales Order Header Partners based on the Order Payer and hence no Hierarchy Customer price conditions are pulled through.
Is what I'm trying to do possible in SAP ?
If so please advise how this can be achieved.
Thanks David

Hello,
I have a similar requirement, although we are building the hierarchies directly in CRM (as we are with BP's in general), and I am using hierarchy category 01 - PRICING.
What I have found is that a sold-to BP must:
1. be assigned to a hierarchy node
2. appear TWICE (!!!) in the document part.det.procedure, once in partner function 000001 (sold to) and again in partner function 00000121 (Authorized partner: sold to).
When the sold to customer exists in both functions within the document, I am able to determine the hierarchy node properly.
Now, my question is, can anyone guess why the main partner (sold to) must appear twice??? or, is this an error in my customizing?
Thank you in advance for your help, and I do hope my observation can help others find a solution.
Regards,
Allon
PS in terms of customizing, I used the following:
partner function 00000001 - sold to
partner function 00000121 - Auth. Partner: Sold-to Party
access for Auth. Partner: 0017 - current partner: sold to *this copies the sold to partner into this partner*
partner function 00000076 - Hierarchy Node Partner
access for hier.node partner: CRM_PARTNER_G Pricing hierarchy
The last bit presupposes that the hierarchy is set up using hierarchy category '01 - pricing'.

Customer hierarchy-Discount not flowing through

I am facing problem in customer hierarchy in pricing.
I have assigned account group 0012 to 001 all customer. 0012 is Main company who is not issuing orders. I think this may be due to Partner determination settings. However, I have set 3 levels 1D mai n office which is not issuing sales orders act group 0012 Set partner determination at customer master level and sales document header TA. In sales order in Partners tab I am getting 1D but not getting other like 1C nor 1B nor 1A.
Assigned sales area as well to hiegher level sales area, order type to "A" cust. hierarchy, VDH1N well maitnined 0012 act grp to lower level 2 company which both are 001 act group.
In VK11 maintained HI01 % discount different for head office & two branch office with same sales org, Distr Channel and division.
Here HO is given 2% discount and one branch office 5% and another 7%
When I am creating sales order for 7% branch, in pricing procedure it shows only 2% (HO) discount but not 7% for branch office. I have also tick marked in XD02 at billing tab price determination. In pricing analysis hirearchy 02 is having Exclaimation in Customer field. So why I am missing this customer field even though I have maintained that customer in VK11. Hope I have summarized all details. If any questions please feel free.
I shall appreciate if you know the resolution.

This is now resolved by proper settings in Customer Hierarchy

Customer Hierarchy in Pricing

Hello,
Please tell me how Customer Hierarchy is used in Pricing? Concept?
What are the config. we have to do?

Thank you.

Customer Hierarchies
Use
With customer hierarchies you can now create flexible hierarchies to reflect the structure of customer organizations. For example, if your customer base includes multi-level buying groups, cooperatives, or chains of retail outlets, you can create hierarchies to reflect the structure of these groups. You use customer hierarchies in order and billing document processing for partner and pricing determination (including rebate determination) and for creating statistics.
You can use customer hierarchies to assign price conditions and rebate agreements to one of the customers subordinate levels, to ensure that all subordinate levels are valid for the customer. For each node that you indicate as relevant for pricing, you can create condition records for pricing. If one or more nodes in a hierarchy path for a sales order contain pricing data, this is automatically taken into account in pricing.
Integration
You can also use customer hierarchies for evaluations in profitability analysis (CO-PA) and in the Sales Information System (SIS):
To evaluate customer hierarchies with the sales information system and in the profitability analysis, you can maintain the field Hierarchy assignment on the Marketing tab page in the customer master record for a hierarchy customer. Here you can maintain 10 features for hierarchy customers (HIEZU01 to HIEZU10). You can use these to evaluate hierarchies statistically with up to 10 levels. (Field catalogue VHIE)
Note that the hierarchy assignment is statistical. If you change the customer hierarchy, you may need to change the hierarchy level manually in the customer master record in the Hierarchy assignment field.
Features
A customer hierarchy is a flexible structure consisting of customers. Each customer - with the exception of the uppermost customer - refers to another customer at a higher level in the hierarchy (known as a higher-level customer). Customers that are assigned to higher-level customers are known as dependent customers.
To be able to display organizational elements, that are not independent partners, you can assign pure hierarchy nodes (account group 0012) in the hierarchy. Specific data can be assigned to a hierarchy node (for example, address, price conditions, rebate agreements) and this then applies to all subordinate customers.
As all nodes in a hierarchy are time-dependent, you can adapt the customer hierarchy to changes in the structure of a customer at any time.
Customers can be reassigned in a hierarchy When reassigning a customer, all subordinate customers are moved with it
You can add new customers to a hierarchy When you assign a new customer to an existing hierarchy, all pricing data, that applies to the higher-level hierarchy node, is automatically copied from the customer
You can also remove customers from the hierarchy

Customer Hierarchy not showing in sales document

Hi All,
I have used the standard hierarchy type (A) to create a 2(or 3) level hierarchy (top level node, 2nd level node and sold t party) and the hierarchy assignments look fine at the customer level. I have assigned the hierarchy type to the sales order type as well. But the hierarchy does not get carried over to the sales orders (contracts) when I create the documents. I am sure it is something really silly, but any idea what I might be missing or where to start looking.
Thank you so much for your help in advance...

Have you Mainted Price determination in the custome masrter record of the billing Tab.
Have you correctly maintained the partner determinatin procedures.
Have you assigned Customer hierarchy to your sales area
Have you created Customer with 0012 Account group.
Now you need to assign the customer creatd using 0012 to the customer 0001 account group.
Have you maintainted the Customer heirarchy in VDH1n transaction..
Here you need to assign 0001 account group customer to 0012 customer
If u have maintained all these settings correctly you will get the hierarchy customer in SO.

Condition Pre step in pricing- condition not determined

Hi,
Iam having an issue in my system. There is a condition type ZTFR (output tax condition) which is not determined in sales order. The access seq with this condition is MWST. There are two accesses in this mwst seq as follows
access seq=mwst
first access 06--departure country/dest country/material group--
standard requirement 8 is assigned to this access
2nd access 10-- departure country/dest country----
standard requirement 8 is assigned to this access
I have seen the standard req 8. The code for include LV61A008( req 8) consists of two parts--one pre step and the other normal exprt/import check...... the pre-step part checks that departure/destinaton country is not nil and both are not equal. the 2nd part checks the same for dept/dest country but also checks whether vat of customer is maintained or not and european tax indicator is set.
In my case only vat no is not maintained and all other conditions like dept ctry/dest ctry amd EU indicators are mainatined both for dept/dest country.
the issue is the condition ZTFR is not determined in sales order. Pls note that there is no VAt no maaintained in customer masterv since our customer does not have the same.
system says the follwowing on doing pricing analysis.
1) access 6 not made since req 8 not met. may be because vat no not maintained as wriiten in requirment 8
2) access 10 not made since condition record not found----
the system also gives message that "No condition record was found in the condition preliminary step for this condition using the document data"........... in this Iam not able to understand why the system has not given a message during pricing analysis that requirement not met. Rather the system said that no condition record found for preliminary step ??
what is meant by condition pre step ? and what is happening ? in the first access, system says req 8 not met whereas in 2nd access record not found but issue is same requiement 8 is assigned to acess 6 and access 10.

Hi,
