| # To retrieve terms and conditions Terms and conditions regarding the sale, purchase, or transfer of specific goods can be defaulted to an order or schedule from an Active contract or enterprise unit relationship. Therefore, you must link the defined terms and conditions agreements in the following sessions: Purchase terms and conditions agreements must be linked to a normal purchase contract in the Purchase Contract - Lines (tdpur3600m000) or Purchase Contracts (tdpur3100m000) session. Sales terms and conditions agreements must be linked to a normal sales contract in the Sales Contract - Lines (tdsls3600m000) or Sales Contracts (tdsls3500m000) session. Internal terms and conditions agreements must be linked to an enterprise unit relationship in the Enterprise Unit - Enterprise Unit Relationship (tcemm0634m000) or Enterprise Unit - Enterprise Unit Relationships (tcemm0134m000) session. The terms and conditions agreements can be linked as follows in the previous sessions: Manually, by selecting an agreement from the Terms and Conditions (tctrm1100m000) session. By generating an agreement from a template, which is automatically linked to the relevant session. To start the Generate Terms and Conditions from Template (tctrm2200m000) session, click Generate Terms and Conditions from Template on the Specific menu. For more information, refer to Terms and conditions templates. Note You can link the following to a contract: A terms and conditions agreement and contract lines. Only a terms and conditions agreement and no contract lines. Only contract lines and no terms and conditions agreement. Therefore, terms and conditions and contract lines are retrieved separately from each other. Terms and conditions are retrieved based on business partner and search date. Contract lines are retrieved based on business partner, item (group), and search date. The search date is determined by the following parameters.
Terms and conditions | Contract lines
--- | ---
Purchase orders/schedules | Sales orders/schedules | Purchase orders/schedules | Sales orders/schedules
Search Date for Terms and Conditions in Purchase Order Parameters (tdpur0100m400) | Search Date for Terms and Conditions in Sales Order Parameters (tdsls0100s400) | Purchase Price Date Type in Pricing Parameters (tdpcg0100m000) | Sales Price Date Type in Pricing Parameters (tdpcg0100m000)
To simulate the retrieval of terms and conditions Before or after terms and conditions are defaulted to an order or schedule, you can simulate their retrieval and view which terms and conditions are effective in a specific situation. Initiate the search simulation process from the following sessions: Purchase Order Lines (tdpur4101m000), Sales Order Lines (tdsls4101m000), Inbound Order Lines (whinh2110m000), Outbound Order Lines (whinh2120m000), by clicking Terms and Conditions on the Specific menu. The terms and conditions are shown based on the order line data. The Terms and Conditions - Searches (tctrm2150m000) session, in which you must enter your own search attributes and Search Date. The terms and conditions search results are displayed in: Terms and Conditions - Search Results (tctrm2151m000) for Sales and Purchase agreements. Terms and Conditions - Search Results (tctrm2151m300) for Internal agreements. To retrieve sales and purchase terms and conditions ERP LN completes the following steps: Determines the sales or purchase contract Active for the corresponding business partner based on the Terms and Conditions Type, sold-to business partner or buy-from business partner, and Search Date. Reads the Terms and Conditions ID from the found sales or purchase contract. Determines, for the terms and conditions agreement, the detailed terms and conditions applicable for the business partner based on the search attributes and Search Date. Note To retrieve terms and conditions from an Active contract for an order line, the contract need not be linked to the order line. The contract number is only filled on the order line if an active contract line is linked to the order line. To retrieve internal terms and conditions ERP LN completes the following steps: Determines the applicable enterprise unit relationship for the internal business partners based on the From Enterprise Unit, To Enterprise Unit, and Search Date. Reads the Internal Terms and Conditions from the found enterprise unit relationship. Determines, for the terms and conditions agreement, the detailed terms and conditions applicable for the internal business partners based on the search attributes and Search Date. Note If internal terms and conditions are searched for, a from and a to item are used. Therefore, two terms and conditions records can be applicable. The Search Sequence for Item Transfer field in the Terms and Conditions Parameters (tctrm0100m000) session determines which item has the highest priority. Note Enterprise Planning can require terms and conditions for a range of data. ERP LN then returns the effective terms and conditions for that period, which can be retrieved from different contracts. View the steps carried out by ERP LN to obtain the terms and conditions search results in the Terms and Conditions - Search Results Log (tctrm2151m200) session.

Logistics terms and conditions are retrieved from search level 3; this is, because search attribute item group GWS and search attribute warehouse S033 of this level match the item group and the warehouse in order line 10. Invoicing terms and conditions are retrieved from search level 4 because search attribute invoice-from business partner GWABC matches the order line's invoice-from business partner. Allocation and hard pegging terms and conditions are retrieved from level 1 because the item in line 10 matches search level attribute item 201060.000.

Invoicing terms and conditions are retrieved from search level 4 because search attribute invoice-from business partner GWABC matches the order line's invoice-from business partner. Order line 30 Order terms and conditions are retrieved from search level 2 because search attributes item 201080.000 and warehouse S034 match the item and warehouse in order line 20. Invoicing terms and conditions are retrieved from search level 4 because search attribute invoice-from business partner GWABC matches the order line's invoice-from business partner.
