Using quote values w/ BAPI_SALESORDER_SIMULATE

[Former Member]

i am simulating an order with BAPI_SALESORDER_SIMULATE. When i enter the order via VA01, i get a popup that there is an open quote, and i can select thequote and get a specific price. I need to be able to, at the item level, either tell it to use any open quote price, or specify a quote number and item number.

I need to get the same price for the simulation that i get for VA01, somehow.

thanks for any help

This is really an interesting question!

You want to link the sales order item to a quote item and if a quote already exists you want to pull that price rather than repricing within the order simulation.

Can you try, passing the three reference document fields for preceding document within ORDER_ITEMS_IN table parameter, with REF_DOC = Quote, REF_DOC_IT = item and REF_DOC_CA = 'B' for quotation?

BAPI_SALESORDER_SIMULATE

Fields from TABLE: ORDER_ITEMS_IN 

REF_DOC	VGBEL	CHAR	10	0	Document number of the reference document
REF_DOC_IT	VGPOS	NUMC	6	0	Item number of the reference item
REF_DOC_CA	VBTYP_V	CHAR	1	0	Document category of preceding SD document

Let me know if it takes the price for this item from the quote instead.

i was missing the "B". i tried it, but it is still ignoring the quote.

you pointed me in the right direction, though. it turns out to be the VAL_CONTR and VAL_CON_I fields.

thanks for your help.

Let me try this in my system and let you know.
