A purchase price can be manually entered or automatically retrieved if you do not manually enter a price during supplier quotation/purchase order entry.
Note: It is possible to not enter any prices for the item. The system will suggest and accept price zero (0) at Purchase order entry. You can then continue with the purchase order processing until you get to Goods reception entry. At that point you must enter a price for the purchase order line before you can confirm the reception note. (See Retrieval of purchase order line price directly below).
Retrieval of purchase order line price
If you do not manually enter a price, the system will retrieve the price depending on the setup of the system. The price could be based on:
- Supplier agreements
- Discounts which the system will calculate on the Actual purchase price 1.
- Purchase prices per supplier, item, unit and currency for a single period, or multiple periods via validity dates (from-to dates).
- Quantity dependent prices depending on the quantity you purchase, which entitle you to different discounts.
