You want to set up a discount with a scale value (condition type K029) that is based on the material group "spare parts". The discount should be granted for all items in a sales order that are spare…

Question

Options

• AYou need to set up condition type K029 as a header condition.
• BYou need to set up condition type K029 as a group condition.
• CYou need to set the Condition Index indicator for condition type K029.
• DYou need to set the Condition Update indicator for condition type K029.

• A
  15% (5)
• B
  76% (25)
• C
  3% (1)
• D
  6% (2)

Explanation

Option B is correct because a group condition instructs SAP to accumulate the quantities (or values) across all relevant line items - in this case, all spare parts - before evaluating the pricing scale. Without this setting, SAP would evaluate K029's scale threshold per individual line item, likely failing to reach the discount tier; with it, the combined spare parts quantity is used, and the resulting scale discount is then applied back to each qualifying item.

A is wrong because a header condition distributes a single discount across all order items regardless of material group - you cannot restrict it to spare parts only, and it doesn't use scale logic per group.

C is wrong because the Condition Index indicator only creates a searchable index for finding condition records faster; it has no effect on how the scale is evaluated across items.

D is wrong because the Condition Update indicator tracks cumulative usage of a condition (e.g., to enforce a maximum discount budget across multiple orders/billing documents) - it is a consumption-tracking tool, not a within-order aggregation tool.

Memory tip: Think of "group condition" as pooling items into one basket before checking the scale - just like a bulk discount that only kicks in when you combine all your spare parts purchases into a single total.
