How Jim2 calculates the selling price for a piece of stock depends on several factors. It is possible that the pricing for stock is used on several promotions (and types of promotions) and may also be related to a project, etc.
The standard order of calculating a selling price is as follows:
|
|
|
|
1
|
Project/Machine
|
Price level on project/machine
|
If job/quote is related to a project, is there a price based on the project's price level?
If yes, use this price.
|
2
|
Job/Quote
|
Customer (Cust#) on job/quote
|
Is there a customer-specific price for this stock?
If yes, use this price.
|
3
|
Job/Quote
|
Price level on job/quote
|
Is there a price for this stock for this price level?
If yes, use this price.
|
For this to be used with promotions, additional ranking and a method of breaking (stopping) when finding a price is required. In general, the lowest will be used based on ranking and breaks in the following order:
|
|
|
|
|
|

|

Machine
|
Project#
|

|
Optional
|
▪Project-related job/quote
▪Promotion Type – Project
▪Project# on promotion
▪Stock# on promotion

|

|
▪Project-related job/quote
▪Price for Stock# with project price level

|
If a project-related price is found in the above steps, the lowest price up to and including Promo Break will be used. If not, normal job/quote based pricing will be used as per below.
