Pricing Procedure and Configuration Steps in SAP MM

Pricing is very important in SAP MM certification as more than 12 percentage of questions will come in your C_TSCM52_66 certification exam. 

What is Pricing procedure?

The main concept of pricing procedure is combination of different type charges, like Gross price, freight, discount, surcharges etc etc.
We use pricing procedure to determine these all conditions into one procedure, where we can find the sub-total for net amount.

To understand pricing procedure we have to comfortable with these below things :
1. Condition Table
2. Access Sequence
3. Condition Type
4. Condition Record.
5. Schema Group
6. Calculation Schema
7. Schema Determination

Let's discuss about all these points in details.

1. Condition Table
It's a table where we can save the all fields with the combination for individual condition record. Suppose if I use Plant as condition table, then the condition record will be created for plant only.
We can use many fields in one condition tables.

2. Access Sequence
The main think of Access sequence is, it searches condition record for condition type from condition table.
One access sequence contains many condition tables.
Suppose we maintain 4 condition tables in one access sequence. Then when a condition type is searching for condition record via this access sequence, the access sequence will allow to search only this 4 condition tables.
