• Key Concepts: 
  Mixed price is a pricing procedure in SAP Inventory Management (MM-IM) that allows for different prices to be applied to different items in the same purchase order. This is useful when purchasing multiple items from the same vendor, as it allows for different prices to be applied to each item. The mixed price procedure also allows for discounts to be applied to certain items, making it a flexible and cost-effective way of purchasing. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use the mixed price procedure, you must first create a purchase order with multiple items. Once the purchase order is created, you can then assign different prices to each item by selecting the “Mixed Price” option in the pricing procedure field. You can also apply discounts to certain items by entering the discount percentage in the “Discount” field. Once all of the prices and discounts have been entered, you can then save the purchase order and proceed with the purchase. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the mixed price procedure, it is important to remember that discounts are applied before taxes are calculated. This means that if you are applying a discount to an item, you should make sure that the discount amount is entered before any taxes are calculated. Additionally, it is important to remember that discounts are only applied to certain items and not all items in a purchase order.
