Setting up terms and conditions

You can store terms and conditions agreed between business partners in a terms and conditions agreement.

Terms and conditions master data

Before you can define terms and conditions agreements, set up the following master data:

Step 1. Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000)

In the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session, select the following check boxes:

Step 2. Warehouse Sets (tctrm0610m000)

To define terms and conditions for a group of warehouses, define a warehouse set and link warehouses to it in the Warehouse Sets (tctrm0610m000) session.

To automatically import warehouses into a warehouse set, use the Generate Warehouse Set (tctrm0210m000) session.

Step 3. Attribute Sets (tctrm0601m000)

For each type of terms and conditions agreement, which can be Purchase, Sales, or Internal, define an atrribute set and search attributes that must be linked to the attribute set. For search attributes (fields) not linked to an attribute set, you cannot set up terms and conditions.

If you defined a warehouse set, before you can set up its terms and conditions, you must link the warehouse set as a search attribute to the attribute set.
