Adjusting Prices Collectively in Info Records

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to carry out price changes

Price Changes

You can make collective changes to purchasing prices in info records.

The types of price changes are as follows:

  • Gross price:

    The price change is calculated directly into the gross price.

  • Condition type:

    The price change only applies to a particular condition type. If the price change only affects the freight costs, for example, you can restrict the change to the condition type for freight costs.

If pricing scales exist and the time period in which the changes are to become effective overlaps with the validity period of the pricing scales, only the price in the first scale line is applied, and the value is adopted in the other scale lines.

To Perform Price Changes

Following you will learn how to perform price changes collectively. The data used matches the example described previously.

The procedure describes how to use the Price Changes: Info Records app. Alternatively, price changes can be collectively performed in a similar way using the Mass Changes to Purchasing Info Records app.

Steps

  1. On the SAP Fiori launchpad, start the Price Changes: Info Records app.

    OR

    In the SAP GUI on the SAP Easy Access, choose Logistics → Materials Management → Purchasing → Master Data → Conditions → Vendor Price Changes → Involving Info Records(MEKP).

  2. Enter purchasing organization 101C and the supplier number.

  3. Enter material S-01 and S-02.

  4. Enter 5 as the percentage and leave the Gross Price checkbox selected.

  5. In the Sign field, enter + to define that the value is to be raised.

  6. In the Conditions valid screen area, enter the validity period < current date > to December 31, 2025.

  7. Note that in the standard list scope, prices are initially only simulated. To perform the changes, you have to deselect the Test Run checkbox.

  8. Choose Execute.

    Result

    The old and new prices are displayed with the validity period.

  9. Save your changes.
