Hi,
In our ByD setup, we have configured the Pricing Procedure to NOT allow discounts on Sales Orders. If a per-order discount needs to be given, a Sales Quote is created. The sales quote goes through our approval rules, and once approved, a Sales Order is created with reference to the approved sales quote.
So far, so good.
Now, when we Copy a SO created with reference to an approved Sales Quote, the new SO goes through, WITH the discount, effectively by-passing the approval process.
This means that a single approval can be re-cycled many times - which is exactly what we do not want to happen (in such a case, either the customer-specific price list needs to be adjusted, or a customer contract needs to be created).
We think this behavior is incorrect, SAP support tells us the system works "as designed" (incident 3500248760).
There should at least be an option to block this behavior.
Thoughts and possible solutions?
Thanks,
Eelco
