SO Contract Pricing Maintenance

This lets you capture a new data record.

This deletes the highlighted data record.

If a valid contract price is defined for the stock code in the SO Contract Prices program and contract pricing applies to the customer, then the following occurs:

• The contract price is used over the list price.

  If the customer qualifies for more than one contract price, then the lowest of the valid contract prices is used.

  The contract price is based on the Order quantity and not on the Ship quantity or on the Stock quantity to ship.

• You can optionally select to apply an expired contract price to a stocked line, providing that it is the lowest price.

  This facility (which can be password-protected) is available when the Prompt for expired contracts setup option is enabled (Setup Options > Preferences > Distribution > Sales Orders ).

• If contract pricing applies and a Flat price is defined for the contract, then the unit of measure defined against the contract in the SO Contract Pricing Maintenance Program: SORP82 program must be the unit of measure in which the stock code will be sold on the sales order.

• Trade promotions pricing is not applied, irrespective of whether the option Trade promotions pricing is enabled against the customer.

• Once a contract has been selected and applied, changing the line quantity does not cause the contract pricing system to apply another contract based on the new quantity.

  The only exception to this is when a contract is defined as quantity discounted and the Quantity discount price update setup option is defined as Never (Setup Options > Configuration > Distribution > Sales Orders) in which case, the contract is reviewed.

• For a Forward order, the prices are based on the order date.

  Therefore, when processing a Forward order for a contract customer with multiple contracts, only the current contract is selected regardless of dates entered.

  If the Forward order is then converted to a Scheduled order, the prices are not automatically recalculated.

  The correct contract price will only be selected when the order is raised as a Scheduled order.

The following order of processing is applied to the order line's price after you select the stock code and required quantity:

1. The system checks if the customer is configured for contract pricing and if there is a current/active contract that applies.

   The Contract price is then applied to the order line (and supersedes any other pricing) if the following are true:

   • The Contract pricing option is enabled against the customer within the Customers program.

   • Valid contract prices have been maintained for the customer and stock code within the SO Contract Prices program.

2. If contract pricing doesn't apply, then the system checks if the customer is configured as a Trade Promotions Pricing customer.

   The TPM price is then applied to the order line if the following are true:

   • There is no valid contract that applies to the customer and stock code.

   • The Trade promotions pricing option is enabled against the customer within the Customers program.

   • Valid TPM pricing has been maintained for the stock code within the TPM Prices program.

   • The Trade promotion pricing is defined against the stock code in the Stock Code Maintenance program.

3. If there is a TPM price break configured by percentage discount that qualifies for the stock code and customer in question, then the system checks if the Sales Pricing Engine feature is in use, and if the customer and stock code form part of a price group.

   The Best price is then applied to the order line if the following are true, and the percentage discount configured on the TPM price break is then applied after you save the order line:

   • There is no valid contract that applies to the customer and stock code.

   • The Trade promotions pricing option is enabled against the customer within the Customers program.

   • A valid TPM price break is configured by percentage discount for the stock code within the TPM Prices program.

   • Your Pricing method setup option is defined as Price groups and the Price group level is configured accordingly within the Setup Options Program: IMPCFG program.

   • A valid price group is configured against the customer within the Price Group Maintenance program and is defined accordingly against the sales order in the order header.

   The SO Pricing Best Price Query Business object: SORQPQ business object calculates the best price using the price group defined in the sales order header along with the stock code and quantity entered on the sales order line.

4. If contract and TPM pricing don't apply, then the system checks if the Sales Pricing Engine feature is in use and if the customer and stock code form part of a price group.

   The Best price is then applied to the order line if the following are true:

   • There is no valid contract that applies to the customer and stock code.

   • The customer is not configured as a Trade Promotions Pricing customer and there is no Trade Promotion Pricing defined for the stock code.

   • Your Pricing method setup option is defined as Price groups and the Price group level is configured accordingly within the Setup Options Program: IMPCFG program.

   • A valid price group is configured against the customer, branch, geographic area or customer class within the Price Group Maintenance program and is defined accordingly against the sales order in the order header.

   The SO Pricing Best Price Query Business object: SORQPQ business object calculates the best price using the price group defined in the sales order header along with the stock code and quantity entered on the sales order line.

5. If none of the above apply, then the system checks if the stock code is configured with a list price.

   The List price is then applied to the order line if the following are true:

   • There is no valid contract that applies to the customer and stock code.

   • The customer is not configured as a Trade Promotions Pricing customer and there is no Trade Promotion Pricing defined for the stock code.

   • A valid List price code is defined against the stock code in the Stock Code Maintenance program.

6. Alternatively, you may override the price and enter your own price manually, in which case your entered price is used for the sales order line.

Then, when you save the order line, the following occurs:

1. The system checks if the Trade promotions customer option is enabled against the customer within the Customers program.

2. If this is enabled, the system then checks for any active promotions which apply to the sales order line.

3. If valid promotions are found, the system then applies these promotions to the order line and affects the price accordingly.

Quantity discount breaks in Syspro operate on an up to and including principle.

This means the system selects the correct price code and discount based on where the order quantity falls within the defined break ranges, i.e. the best‑fit break is determined by finding the highest break that the order quantity does not exceed.
