Pricing procedure in MM module is a way to determine prices in purchasing documents. It give us functionality to assign different calculation types for different needs. Defining a pricing procedure can be done by creating an access sequence, and assigning it to condition types. Access sequence tells the system where to look for the condition values. It can search multiple condition tables based on our settings. Tables have different priority, and different key fields. Determination of the pricing procedure is practically assigning the calculation schema to a combination of vendor schema group and purchasing organization schema group.
