## Access Sequence

- Access Sequence in Condition Type defines a search strategy that CRM system uses to search for valid data in a specific condition type. It comprises of one or more accesses
- These accesses are each defined by a condition table
- The sequence of the accesses controls the priority of the individual condition records
- The accesses tell the system where to start searching after a valid condition record
- Access sequences are defined in Customizing:
- SPRO -> Customer Relationship Management -> Basic Functions -> Pricing -> Define Settings for Pricing -> Create Access Sequences
- The combination of fields (keys) that identify an individual condition record is defined by a condition table
- Thus, condition table defines the combination of fields that an individual condition record consists of
- The condition table consists of a combination of search and result fields
- Path to define Condition tables in customizing:
- SPRO -> Customer Relationship Management -> Basic Functions -> Pricing -> Define Settings for Pricing -> Create Condition Tables
- Following are name ranges defined for the condition tables:

[![Access Sequence]()](https://www.guru99.com/images/sap/2013/06/062813_1108_CRMPricing9.png)

## Example

- Once defined and assigned to a transaction type in the customizing, Pricing Procedure is used to calculate the pricing for the relevant objects in the Transaction
- For example below is a scenario:

[![Pricing Procedure execution in SAP CRM]()](https://www.guru99.com/images/sap/2013/06/062813_1108_CRMPricing10.png)

*Pricing Procedure execution in SAP CRM*

- Here, transaction has a product, for which Pricing Procedure found is 0CRM1
- System will now run all the Condition Types within this particular Pricing Procedure
- Thus, it will start with the first Condition Type, i.e., PR00, which in this scenario is calculating the price
- PR00 condition type is having reference to the Access Sequence ZPR0
- Thus, the Access Sequence ZPR0 is followed for the Price
- This Access Sequence calls two condition Records
- One of these condition types is found as not available for this particular data in the transaction
- It is calculating the Price based on another Condition Record
- In the similar fashion, all the Condition Types in concerned Pricing Procedure are processed
- In this example, 0K07 is executed for Customer Discount and 0KA0 is executed for Sales Promotion discount
- Based upon all the Condition Type executions, different components of price are found
- Thus using all this data, it calculates the net price of the product in the current transaction
- Customers can see the final price

## Pricing in CRM Web UI
