Difference between Actual header conditions and Item totals

1. What is meant by 'actual' header conditions?

'Actual' header conditions are conditions that are are manually entered on the header condition screen.

It is never possible to determine 'actual' header conditions using automatic condition determination (condition acce

2. Which Customizing settings are required to enter an 'actual' header condition?

In Customizing of the condition type (for example, transactions V/06, M/06) make the following settings in the 'Cha

a) Select the header condition checkbox (field KKOPF).

b) In addition, select at least one of the two checkboxes 'Amount/Percent' (field KAEND_BTR) or 'Value' (field KAEN

c) For 'Manual entries' (field KMANU), do not select the setting 'B' (Automatic entry has priority) or 'D' (Not possible

d) 'Actual' header conditions are not allowed to have access sequences (field KOZGF).

3. How is an 'actual' header condition distributed to the pricing result of the individual document items?

This depends on further Customizing settings of the condition type, in particular on the calculation type (field KRECH

Example:

For a header condition with calculation type 'Fixed Amount', the amount entered on the header condition screen is

However, if the condition is set as a group condition, the amount entered on the header is distributed proportional

4. Which specification has the condition origin and the condition control for 'actual' header conditions?
a) For an 'actual' header condition, you create a row in the table of conditions (database table KONV or internal tab

Condition origin (field KHERK) 'C' (Manually entered)

The condition control (field KSTEU) has the specification

'C' (Changed manually), if only a condition rate (not equal to zero) is entered,

'E' (Condition value and basis fixed), if a condition value is entered,

'A' (Adjust for quantity variance), if neither condition rate nor condition value are entered.

b) The 'actual' header condition has the following specification on the items (KONV rows KPOSN not equal to '00000

Condition control (field KSTEU) 'C' (Changed manually)

Condition origin (field KHERK) 'D' (Header condition)

5. How do 'actual' header conditions behave in copy procedures?

In R/3 standard pricing, conditions are copied only at item level. No 'actual' header conditions are copied. The KONV

Condition control 'E' (Condition value and basis fixed)

Condition origin 'G' (Original header condition)

These conditions then become item conditions in the target document.

6. How do 'actual' header conditions behave in (milestone) billed documents?

If you display the (milestone) billed document in display mode, the system displays the 'actual' header condition in
CnTy Name: HB00 Absolute disc.

Amount Curr per UoM: 20.00 EUR

Condition val currency: 20.00 EUR

However, if you call the (milestone) billed document in change mode, the system must split the header condition in

The following section explains this system response using the example of an 'actual' header condition with the calcu

7. Examples for question 6

An order has 5 items. On the header, the HB00 discount is entered with an amount of EUR 20.00- and is distributed

The condition bases in the left column result in the condition values displayed in the right column. In this case, item

There is a milestone billing for this order and the items 10, 20 and 30 are billed. The order is now called in change m
To display the condition on the header condition screen, the system proceeds as follows:

The fixed item portions of the billed items are added (5.57- + 4.42- + 2.92- = EUR 12.91-) and displayed in one row w

a) What happens if the condition basis for HB00 changes on one of the open items?

In this case, the outstanding condition rate of EUR 7.09- is distributed in relation to the (new) condition bases of the

Example: The order quantity of item 50 (or the PR00 price) is tripled, which also triples the condition basis for HB00

b) What happens if a further item is created?

In this case, the newly created item is included in the distribution of the outstanding condition rate of EUR 7.09-.

Example: Item 60 is created with a condition rate of EUR 13.97 for HB00. This has the following result:

Overall total (EUR) 20.00-

c) What happens if the outstanding condition rate of EUR 7.09- is changed for HB00?

In this case, the changed condition rate is distributed to the outstanding items in relation to the condition bases of
Example: The condition rate for HB00 is reduced from EUR 7.09- to EUR 5.00-. This has the following result:

8. What is the significance of the KAWRT and KWERT fields in the KONV database table for an 'actual' header conditi

There is no significance. In the KONV database table, only the condition rate (field KBETR) is relevant for an 'actual'

The condition basis (field KAWRT) and the condition value (field KWERT) of an 'actual' header condition are (re)calc

The system calculates them by adding up the condition bases and condition values of the relevant items.

Therefore, the contents of the KAWRT and KWERT fields in the KONV table are not important for an 'actual' header

In standard R/3 pricing, these values are not the basis for any function.

Therefore, in user-defined programs (for example, in print), you must not access the contents of KAWRT and KWER

The values saved in the database table (generally) correspond to the values that were determined the last time the

If you now enter an 'actual' header condition and, for example, save the document immediately afterwards (that is
9. What is meant by 'item totals'?

10. How are 'item totals' displayed?

The summation of the item conditions for the display on the header condition screen occurs in the XKOMV_AUFBA

In detail, the system proceeds as follows:

The internal table TKOMV, which contains all conditions of the document, is sorted according to the following key:

KNUMV STUNR ZAEKO KSCHL KSTAT KRUEK KHERK

KRECH KWAEH KGRPE IX_GKOMV KINAK KBETR KNUMH

After that, the table entries are run in the sequence that was just created.

The row that was just edited is added to the row currently in the structure for the header condition screen (= 'Items

However, if at least one of the split criteria is fulfilled, the system starts with the structure of a further row for the h

The following split criteria are taken into account by the system:

Different condition type in both rows (field KSCHL).

Different step number in both rows (field STUNR).

The condition of one row is statistical, the condition of the other row is not (field KSTAT).

The condition of one row is relevant for accrual, the condition of the other row is not (field KRUEK).
The condition rows do not originate from the same 'actual' header condition (field ZAEKO).

There is a different alternative currency in both rows (field KWAEH).

There is a different inactivity indicator in both rows (field KINAK).

For variant conditions: There is a different condition record number in both rows (field KNUMH).

For automatically determined group conditions: Different condition rate (field KBETR), different calculation type (fie

Also the following:

a) Item conditions excluded with an inactivity indicator (field KINAK) not equal to 'Y' or 'A' (see 836243) are not incl

b) Statistical conditions (for example, the condition type VPRS) appear on the header condition screen, provided th

c) The 'item totals' are only 'virtual' condition rows. They are only created (dynamically) at runtime during the displa

d) Cumulated conditions (field KDUPL = 'B') are not displayed on the header condition screen (see 844141).
