Condition Exclusion Group in SAP using Tcode OV31

What is Condition Exclusion Group?

In any normal situation there could be more than one condition type in a pricing procedure offering a discount to a customer. Should the discounts be automatically determined, there is the risk that the customer will receive all the relevant discounts and thus purchase the product for a lower price than he should.

By using ‘condition exclusion groups’ you can ensure that the customer does not receive all the discounts, but instead only receives the best of the available discount condition types.
