Prices and Types

In a standard SAP system, price is defined as gross price of a material. Below are the predefined price types in a system −

  • Material Price
  • Price List Type
  • Customer specific price

By default, the system takes gross price in the automatic pricing for a business transaction. In a standard SAP system, system takes customer specific price. If no such price exists, system checks for a valid price list type. If this is also not present in the system, it takes the material price.

Material Prices
