A:
PR can be created with reference to another PR and can not be created referencing aPO or Scheduling agreements. PO & Scheduling are created and controlled by purchasingorganizations. PR can be created by even end users. For creating PR with reference toanother PR, follow the menu path:Purchasing->Requisition->Create.Requisition->Copy reference and enter.However requirement can be generated with reference to Scheduling agreement whenMRP is run. For this to happen, source list has to be maintained for that item-vendor combination and the MRP shall be properly set.

If you want to fix the schedule within acertain period you have two options.1. Using firm zone - firms all orders within this period . Refer additional data screen of the scheduling agreement at the vendor material level.2. Planning time - all new orders outside of the planning time fence - refer MRP 1 viewof the material master

A:
Create Pricing Schema with all condition not marked in Statistical column if you needall condition Record to be calculated.For Example :
Level CondTy Description From To100 PB00 Gross Price200 RA01 Discount % on Gross300 ZMUP Mark Up (value)400 Base Value for Tax 100 300500 ZDIS Disc. Excluded Tax600 Net Amount700 MST Tax 400 400800 Net Amount
With this Schema:- Net Amount will be calculated from PB00, RA01, ZMUP, ZDIS.- Tax will be calculated from PB00, RA01, ZMUP.Total amount will be calculated from net amount and Tax. So, ZDIS will included in NetAmount and excluded for Tax.
