You have several options from which to choose when setting up your purchase prices. You can:
- Enter a Supplier agreement specifying certain terms and conditions that you have agreed on with your supplier.
- Enter up to nine different discounts which the system will calculate on the Actual purchase price 1.
- Enter one purchase price per supplier, item, unit and currency for a single period, or multiple periods via validity dates (from-to dates).
- Enter different prices depending on the quantity you purchase, which entitle you to different discounts.
Note: A retrieval of the purchase price is only done when the user does not manually enter a price during supplier quotation/purchase order entry.
The user also has the possibility to not enter any purchase prices for the item. The system will suggest and accept price zero (0) at Purchase order entry. Purchase order processing can then continue until Goods reception entry. At that point the user must enter a purchase price for the purchase order line before the reception note can be confirmed.
