System Preparations
To enable all the participants to maintain customizing at the same time, the blocking mechanism for
maintaining the tables has to be de-activated.
Therefore you start the report ZSENQOFF using transaction SE38. If it‟s necessary to turn on the
blocking mechanism again, you can use the report ZSENQON.
ABAPs
Normally, the language key for all the customer master records used in LO605 are set to German. This
means that the language for all the orders that are created and all the material short texts are in German.
To avoid this, you can change the language key in the customer master records by using mass
maintenance (use Transaction MASS).
1. Make sure that you have not defined own data, which could influence the mass change (for example a
value for the company account) Transaction SU3, tabstrip parameters .
2. Object type: KNA1

Actually the old report ZDEBLAN to convert the language key for all customers does not work correct
(because of the new Central Address Management).
CATTs
You should not start any CATT before the start of the course ! All necessary CATTs already run in

the training master system. For the course LO605 the following CATTs were processed:
CATT ZT_SD_CUST prepares the necessary customizing for all SD-courses.
CATT ZT_LO605_01 creates customer, material and personnel master records for every participant
group in the parent training system.
The following customizing was prepared by the CATTs
Create sales area Z000 / Z0 / 00 (the same as 1000 / 10 / 00)
Assign the pricing procedures for the new sales area (same as 1000 / 10 / 00)
Create a specific account group for each participant (copying reference: 0001):
Account group: ZK## Description: Sold-to party group ##
Create a specific sales document type for each participant (copying reference: OR)
Sales doc. type: ZA## Description: Trade fair ##-order
Create pricing master records (PR00 material prices) for the materials
Supplement the value contract material WKM1 in the item category WKN
These data and the settings are automatically copied from the training master system (ID3, client 400)
into all training systems.

Introduction
Introduction
Unit Topics
Describe a typical Sales and Distribution process, focusing in particular on the sales activities.
A customer makes a telephone inquiry and this is changed to a quotation. The customer accepts the
quotation and orders the product which is then entered as a sales document. An order confirmation is sent
to the customer. The goods in the order are picked, delivered and posted to goods issue before being
billed. The whole process can be monitored in the document flow.
Provide a brief review of the Customer order management cycle, beginning with
an inquiry, and ending with billing
- Demonstrate how data is transferred and how quantities and the reference
status are updated
- Show that the order confirmation is automatically generated which
concludes the Sales process
Show how Sales links into the whole Sales and Distribution process
Explain the structure of the sales document
Here, you basically repeat the contents of LO150. Remind the participants that
attending course LO150 is a prerequisite. The „Where does sales fit…‟ slide can be
used nicely to introduce the control features of most things listed – to get participants

used to some of the terms they will be hearing during the course (i.e. „determine
prices‟ is controlled by the pricing procedure‟).
Approx. 15 minutes
Create two quotations, each with reference to one item of the inquiry
( customer request):
Logistics Sales and Distribution sales quotation

Quotation type: QT
Validity: 1 month
Demonstrate the overviews, the header tabs, the item tabs, and the schedule line
tabs. Point out the Additional data A & B tabs (header and item) and the Sales A
& B (item).
Briefly point out table control feature. Show that you can rearrange columns, and
that if you have the proper authority, can permanently change the table format
and hide fields.

Topics
Organizational Units in SD
This unit describes how a new enterprise structure would be set up in the R/3
System. The IDES-AG company in the training system is given another distribution
channel and new sales areas for sales at trade fairs. In addition the internal
organizational structure in sales has to be extended.
Organizational Units in SD
Introduce the trade fair sales scenario and make the necessary changes to the enterprise structure.
Show the scenario with the new enterprise structure for the trade fair sales demo on
the overhead projector or the flipchart.
The basic information should be a review for students, as an introduction was
provided in LO150. A good technique is to treat part of this discussion as a review,
asking students, for example “What is an example of a sales organization? What is
the relationship between sales organization and company code?” and so on.

Topics
Before looking at customizing, this unit discusses essential elements of sales order
entry.
Here, you can mention document processing techniques as well as how the system
automatically generates important document data from the master data.
12.06.1998 Page 26
SAP AG LO605 Sales
Sales Order Processing
For Release 4.0A, development has used the results of customer research to simplify and change the
interface ergonomically.
The user can now enter sales orders without specifying the sales area which is the automatically
determined from the customer master record. It is also possible to enter a sales order with the ship-to
party as the system can use this to search and list all the potential sold-to parties.
Approx. 10 min
12.06.1998 Page 27
SAP AG LO605 Sales
Sales Order Processing
To accelerate order entry and to increase data security, most data for order entry are determined from the
different master records. When the user creates an order, the system accesses all of the available master
records such as business partner, materials, bills of material, prices, texts, output, customer-material
information, etc. to determine the data.

Often participants ask for alternative possibilities for automatic plant determination.
In the R/3-Standard there are possibilities with User-Exits.
IMG Sales and Distribution System Modifications Users Exits . . .
If they use the New Dimensions Product APO they can use the condition technique
for automatic plant determination.

Sales Summary
In Rel. 46A the sales summary has been reworked and integrated into the sales order.
Sales Summary
Explain how the sales summary supports sales order processing with information
Approx. 5 min
Show the sales summary of the customer of the order you created.
(The sequence and selection of the info blocks within the sales summary can be
changed in customizing. The structure of info blocks can NOT be changed by
customizing-means.)
Students may be interested in how the Sales Summary is customized. LO604 covers
this topic, but the course is not offered very often, so you may want to demonstrate
this feature.
Optional sales summary demonstration
IMG Sales and Distribution sales support (CAS) Sales summary
Fast change functions enable the user to change more than one item at once during sales order processing.
This applies to the reason for rejection, delivery block, billing block, delivery date, delivery priority and
delivery plant.

copy control on item-level.)
Optional
Default sold-to set-up and use.
In the telesales business, a customer may choose not to provide their customer
number immediately. Since it is required, a „default sold-to‟ may be set-up in the
customer master, and automatically copied into the order – and then replaced
with the customers number when provided.

Sales Document Type
Topics
Now that the participants know how to enter sales documents, this unit discusses
how those documents are controlled in customizing.
Customizing for sales documents can be done at the header, item or schedule line
level, corresponding to the structure of the document. Controlling individual
documents is supplemented by copying control which governs which data may be
copied to a subsequent document. These topics are discussed in this and the
following three units.
12.06.1998 Page 35
SAP AG LO605 Sales
Sales Document Type
Display the structure of sales documents and their controlling elements in a flipchart
or on the overhead projector
Stress that in some cases, additional configuration must be done outside of the
document type (for example). Much of that customizing, such as pricing, partners,
output and so on, are maintained in basic functions, then the procedure is linked to
the document type (item category or schedule line category).
12.06.1998 Page 36
SAP AG LO605 Sales
Sales Document Type
Some general sales document controls are not in customizing for sales document
types but at other places in the IMG. For example, a series of basic functions are
linked to the sales document type. They can be found in the IMG for Basic
Functions.

Example: The immediate delivery field has not been activated in the document type
OR but does exist for RO/CS (rush orders and cash sales).

When prompted, choose Yes – ZA00 is relevant for copying control. Show the
entries that have been maintained automatically during the copy.
Order types permitted for sales areas
Permitted in 1000 / 10 / 00: (entry from copy)
Permitted in 3000 / 10 / 00 (entry from copy)
Remind participants that sales document types shouldn‟t be created new but copied
from other types. Later on in the course, refer to other duplicated entries, such as
item categories, schedule line categories, material determination, incompletion, etc.

Sales Document Type
Approx. 50 min
To accelerate this process, the order type ZA## for use in these activities has already
been created for the participants. Copying control settings were also copied which
means that these tables are substantially larger in size and it will take a long time to
call up the relevant customizing tables for the Document Flow unit.
Often participants ask for possibilities to adjust the screens their own requirements.
Therefore they can use (easily) Transaction Variants and Screen Variants which
were enhanced in Rel. 4.6.
This enables you to configure a sequence of screens for each sales document type
that meets your individual requirements. For example, you can enter values in fields,
hide or display fields, change the menu structure, change the table control, or hide
whole screens in a transaction variant. This simplifies working with the transaction
considerably.
A screen variant is created for each single screen within the transaction that you have
processed in the variant.
General Settings Field Display Characteristics
Configure application transaction fields
Transaction variants can be assigned to each sales document type (field Variant in
Customizing for the sales document type).

SAP AG LO605 Sales
Controlling the Sales Document with the Item Category
Topics
This unit builds on the sales document type to discuss the item category as the next
customizing object for sales document control.
Start by telling the participants about the functions of the item category in the sales document.
Customizing for item category controls the behavior of a sales document at the item level. You will
configure settings that are valid for all items of this item category in the document.
12.06.1998 Page 41
SAP AG LO605 Sales
Controlling the Sales Document with the Item Category
Explain how the item categories are named using a flipchart or on the overhead
projector
As mentioned in sales document types, further controls for item categories are not
directly under customizing for item categories but in other IMG activities.
Approx. 20 min
Note: To explain the affects of different entries on a particular field, you can use
Other entry to go from the standard item to another item category.
Example: The completion rule field is set to A for item category AFN, to B for item
category AGN and blank for item category TAN.
To Release 4.6 there is the new completion rule D. This rule is used for automotive
with the MAIS-pickup-sheet process.
Sub-Items

Product structures that belong together such as bills of material (sets) or free goods are entered as higher-

level and sub-items in the sales document. When the user changes the quantity in the higher-level item,
the quantity in the sub-item is also changed proportionally.
Note: There is an exercise on adding a sub-item to an order in a prior unit, so while it was not discussed
in detail, they did get some visibility to the feature.

Controlling Sales Documents with the Schedule Line Category
Topics
The schedule line category is the third customizing object available for controlling
sales documents.
These three elements enable the users to control sales documents in detail at any
level within their structures.
This unit discusses the functions of the schedule line in the sales document.
Customizing for schedule line categories controls the behavior of a sales document at the schedule line
level. You will configure settings that are valid for all schedule lines of this schedule line category in the
sales document.

Controlling Sales Documents with the Schedule Line Category
Approx. 15 min
To explain the affects of the different entries for a field, you can use New entries
to go from schedule line category CP (deterministic MRP) to another schedule
line category.
Example: The Item relevant for delivery field is activated for schedule line
category CP but not for BN (quotations). This is because this schedule line is
only used as a template for a schedule line in the sales order.
The movement type contains important information for the interface to inventory
management. The IMG offers a detailed help text: use the search function to
select movement type.
IMG Materials Management Inventory Management Movement Types
To generate purchase requisitions automatically in MM (purchasing) you use the
fields Order type, Purch. req. with del. Scheduling, Item category and Account
assignment in the Schedule line category. These fields are used in third-party
order processing or individual customer purchase order (for example schedule
line category CS).
Internal Note:
Availability checks and transfer of requirements have not yet been covered in the
training courses but there is a CD (customers can search for it under Knowledge
Products and Availability Check in OSS), Purchase order number: 500 15 300
In normal business processes, the schedule line category is automatically determined by the R/3 System.

Customer Consignment
To represent the customer consignment process, the standard system contains four document types with
individual settings at the header, item and schedule line level. This business process is a good way of
teaching and practicing how the customizing objects - sales document type, item category and schedule
line category - work together. These business processes in the R/3 System provide a good examplesof the
variations that are possible within standard configuration. For example, a consignment return will go back
to the customer‟s own plant instead of the customer special stock.

Free Goods
The free goods functionality allows you to automatically give the same or different product for free, when
a certain quantity of a given product has been purchased by a customer. How the free good quantity is
determined, and how the system behaves in a variety of situations is dependent on how free goods is
customized and how master records are defined.
