Title
Execute Partner/Product Range Rules

Purpose
With this report, you can execute thepartner/product range rules
(PPR rules) for which you have not set theExecute PPR Rule indicator inCustomizing. These rules are therefore not executed automatically eachtime the relevant PPRs are used (for example, in a PPR check inbusinesstransactions or for generating product proposals), but only whenthis report is started.
You can carry out this report as often as you wish. If, for example,youwant to generate new product proposals every two weeks, you schedulethis report to the executed as a regular background job. (To do so, youcan save a variant for the selection screen.)
When a rule is executed, a customer-specific function module is called,which has been assigned to the rule in Customizing.
For example, the product references resulting from the execution of aPPR rule for products are saved in the relevant PPR item in theassignment block Results of Automatic Product Evaluation. Whenyou execute the rule again, the existing product references are deletedand replaced by those from the current rule execution.
When you delete or change a rule ID on the Partner/Product RangeItem page, any existing parameter values and any product, account,and validity period references resulting from the executing of thisruleare deleted.
