Updating Info Record conditions
The Purchasing Info Record conditions can be updated in ME12 transaction directly.
However, there are other options as well. The transactions MEK2, MEK3 and MEK32 are also suitable to update the condition values. Also, it is possible to post IDOC (for example using the COND_A idoc type).
Many customers use custom reports or transactions to update the condition records directly.
Important: the field EINE-NETPR is only updated if the condition is changed in ME12 transaction.
To update the EINE tables with the price value and validity information, it is necessary to run the report RM06INP0.
