Use this activity to create a price list for each combination of purchase part and supplier. The price list is basically defined for the combination of a purchase part and its supplier. In this list, you can enter a minimum quantity along with price, discount, and additional cost. You must also specify a valid starting date for each line. This functionality takes only the present purchase order line into account and, consequently, retrieves the terms from the line with the appropriate quantity.
The price list supports multiple currencies.
If the Use Price Incl Tax option is enabled in the Supplier for Purchase Part/General tab, it is possible to enter values in the Price Incl Tax/Curr and the Add Cost Gross /Curr fields. The price values are calculated using the tax code used for the supplier for purchase part. The Price/Curr and the Add Cost Net/Curr fields are non editable.
This information can be entered from a price catalog message received via EDI/MHS. You can receive a price catalog that includes price, quantity, and discounts and additional costs.
