One-time contracts in Purchase Order Entry

As the buyer, you must process cost recovery for all short-term special pricing agreements (SPAs) manually. You can create a new PO for the contract cost or apply the contract cost to an existing PO using, for example, an addon or discount.

Visibility into these special pricing agreements (SPAs) is provided primarily through Purchase Order Entry and the Purchase Entry Recommended Replenishment Action Report.

If you have created a one-time cost record that is not tied to a specific product, only to the vendor, click Contract Amount in the Purchase Order Setting window to access the PO-Vendor Credit list. From this list, you can view a list of current one-time cost records and manually apply the amounts to a PO. Then, select Use Remaining Credit to clear the Price/Discounting Setup Vendor Contract Pricing (PDSVC) table record for this contract.

You can view the one-time (OT) contract ID and amount in Sales Order Inquiry.
