Price Entry
The customer price definition is made up of four major stages:
- Setting up invoicing elements to define the different invoice footers that can influence the price setting of a business partner (see the Invoicing elements documentation).
- The structure code setup, in order to define the different discounts and charges columns that can be applied to the customers (see the documentation Price list structure).
- The price list code setup, in order to define various price setting rules that can be applied to the structure code (see documentation Price list setup).
- Entering the price list records to define the actual values of the product price, discounts and charges, for each price list code.
This function is thus the last stage in the price list definition. It is used to define, for each previously set up price list code, price list records mentioning the following elements:
- the identifiers that will cause the price list to be applied (using the existing data in the called tables), or the entry to be prohibited.
- the application conditions (range in amount or in quantity...)
- the gross price to be applied to the product
- the amounts and/or rates of the discounts and charges
- free items.
Consequently it is possible to create as many records as there are identifier combinations requiring the application of a specific price list (by price list code).

Screen management
Entry screen
The entry of the price list records is subdivided into two stages:
- the selection of the price list code for which a price list record should be created
- the entry of the price list database, or the modification of an already existing price list record.
Selection of the price list code
In order to select the price list code, the user should position themselves on the line of this code.
Entry of the price list database
The left list is used to select an already existing record. To create a new record, it is necessary to create a new document (tool bar or "File" menu).
The price list entry screen is subdivided into two parts:
- Header information
The price list record activity, its application priority and the reason allocated to it are dependent upon the price list code. Thus they are not modifiable.
Nevertheless it is necessary to define: - a price list record code, as the record identifier.
- a validity range, with a date range that limit the application of the price list to a given period of time
- Lines button is enough.
The columns to be assigned depend on the Price list setup (Price list code).
Block number 1
Price list code (field PLI) |
Code used to identify the price list rule. A price list code identifies a setup giving access to the rules that determine the price, discounts or other elements linked to the price lists. In order to set up a price list code, it is necessary to define its type, the list of fields used to specify when a price list line can be applied, and the list of fields assigned by the line. Once this has been set up, the user can access the price list line entry screens. In these screens, the user can enter both the criteria values and the corresponding values. For example: Definition of two discounts by Product group-Customer code combination. The Product group (from the product record) and Customer code (from the customer record) fields are considered as criteria for the setup. The Discount1 and Discount2 fields display the values assigned by the price list rule. In this case, the price list line entry screen contains a total of four columns. |
Price list record (field PLICRD) |
Record number that allows the record to be identified in a unique way. This number is automatically generated or entered upon each creation of a price list record following the sequence number counter parameterization defined for the Sales price list records. |
Index (field PLICRDIDX) |
Data with 10 alphanumerical characters maximum used to specify a logical classification for the record. |
Block number 2
Priority (field PIO) |
Active (field PLIENAFLG) |
Block number 3
Validity start date (field PLISTRDAT) |
Validity start date. |
Validity end date (field PLIENDDAT) |
Validity end date. |
Type (field X1PRIREN) |
field X2PRIREN |
field PLIPRITYP |
Criteria 1 (field CRIT1) |
This column corresponds to one of the identifiers used to determine the price and/or sales conditions. These identifiers are defined in the tab Criteria in the Price list setup. Thus, there are as may columns as defined identifiers.
|
Criteria 2 (field CRIT2) |
Criterion 3 (field CRIT3) |
Criterion 4 (field CRIT4) |
Criterion 5 (field CRIT5) |
Currency (field CUR) |
This is the currency code controlled in the currency table. |
SAL (field UOM) |
Code consisting in 3 alphanumeric characters controlled in the units table. According to fields present, this code can concern the minimum quantity, the maximum quantity and the class for assigning free item data. It determines the number of decimal digits.
When the product is part of the criteria, the code is initialized with its sales unit and can be modified. |
Minimum quantity (field MINQTY) |
Minimum quantity for the assignment of this price list line. When the line of the quote, the order, the delivery or the invoice is expressed in a different unit, this line is only used if this price list accepts the conversion of units. |
Maximum quantity (field MAXQTY) |
Maximum quantity for the assignment of this price list line. When the line of the quote, the order, the delivery or the invoice is expressed in a different unit, this line is only used if this price list accepts the conversion of units. |
Minimum amt. (field MINAMT) |
Minimum value of the quote, order, delivery or invoice for the assignment of this price list line. The maximum value is compared with the totaled values for those lines meeting the criteria and displaying the same currency as the price list (or accepting the currency conversion). |
Max amt (field MAXAMT) |
Maximum value of the quote, order, delivery or invoice for the assignment of this price list line. The maximum value is compared with the totaled values for those lines meeting the criteria and displaying the same currency as the price list (or accepting the currency conversion). |
Lead time (field LTI) |
This field indicates the lead-time asked for the reception of the products, displayed in number of days. |
Price fact (field PRIDIV) |
Price divider used to define whether the price is expressed for a dozen products or a hundred etc. |
Price (field PRI) |
This field can only be entered if the price list code is set up to assign the unitary price at line level (depending on the setup of the price list code).
The price is always indicated with 4 decimals in order to ensure as much accuracy as possible for small amounts. |
field XFRAREM1 |
field XFRAREM2 |
field XFRAREM3 |
field XFRAREM4 |
field XFRAREM5 |
field XFRAREM6 |
field XFRAREM7 |
field XFRAREM8 |
field XFRAREM9 |
Minimum free (field FOCQTYMIN) |
This field can be initialized according to the price list setup, Price/Free tab. |
Free processing (field FOCQTYBKT) |
This field can be initialized according to the price list setup, Price/Free tab. This is the class based on which free products are assigned, when the minimum quantity for assigning free products is respected. The number of free products is determined with respect to the number of occurrences of the class and to the free item quantity (number of classes x number of free products). Example 1 :
Example 2 :
|
Minimum free (field FOCAMTMIN) |
This field can be initialized according to the price list setup, Price/Free tab.
|
Free processing (field FOCAMTBKT) |
This field can be initialized according to the price list setup, Price/Free tab. This is the class based on which free products are assigned, when the minimum value for assigning free products is respected. The number of free products is determined with respect to the number of occurrences of the class and to the free item quantity (number of classes x number of free products). |
Free product (field FOCITMREF) |
This field can be initialized according to the price list setup, Price/Free tab. |
SAL (field FOCUOM) |
Code de 3 caractères alphanumériques. Ce code sert à caractériser toutes la zone Quantité de l'article gratuit et à l'arrondir selon le nombre de décimales. |
Free quantity (field FOCQTY) |
This field can be initialized according to the price list setup, Price/Free tab. |
Commission factor (field COMCOE) |
Multiplying coefficient applied to the commission basis of each line |
