In support of the new ‘Product Range’ fields within Pricing Module, system processes for the following screens have been updated
- Customer Maintenance Pricing and Disc > Pricing Rules
- Product Maintenance > Pricing Rules
The following fields have been created within: Report Generator and Export / Import Utility:
- Product Range ID
- Product Range Desc
- Product Range Product ID’s. Note: a comma separated list of Product IDs is required when importing multiple products
Global Pricing System
The Global Pricing System has also been modified:
- If ‘Basis of Quantity’ is set to ‘Exists in Range (Single)’, then the Pricing Module can qualify on a single Product line as normal.
- If ‘Basis of Quantity’ is set to ‘Across the Range (Multiple)’, it can qualify for multiple Product lines as well. However, pricing priority still takes place for each Product line. So a Product line may not count towards qualification if a higher priority price is found for it (Such as a Special, or a different Pricing Module with a higher precedence).
For example:
If Product A, Product B and Product C exist in the range for the Pricing module record, where ‘Basis of Quantity’ is set to ‘Across the Range (Multiple)’, and ‘Min QTY’s’ is set to 4. This means the Pricing module will qualify if the Invoice has any of those Products with a combined total Order Quantity greater than or equal to 4.
If the Invoice has Product A and Product B with an Order Quantity of two each, but Product A finds a price source of Special, then Product A will not count towards the Total Quantity to qualify the Pricing Module which then means Product B will not qualify for that Pricing Module.
If Product C is then included to the Invoice with an Order Quantity of 2, and both Product B and Product C have no higher price priority source then this Pricing Module will qualify, and both Product lines will have the Pricing Modules details applied.
Please note that there are other reasons a Product line will not be included in the total Quantity to Qualify, for example:
- In Point of Sale: Lines are in Full Mode
- Within Invoicing: there are Bonus Item lines or Lines where either the Price or Discount has been modified (either manually, or via values from an Electronic Order).
- Also, negative Quantity lines will never qualify for a Pricing Module with a Product Qualification called ‘Product Range’, regardless of what ‘Basis of Quantity’ is set to.
The following system functions will use the Global Pricing System to check multiple lines as described above:
- Point of Sale
- Invoicing (including ‘Reprice Invoice’ menu item)
- Auto Process Electronic Orders
- Price Validation
- C-Bill Order Creation Validation (When calculating the Order Total from Head Office)
- Web Service Pricing
The following will not use the Global Pricing System to check multiple lines:
- Sales Enquiry
- Pricing Module Manipulator
- Price List
Note: Integrating this new system functionality into SalesTALK live pricing is currently in development.
