New items

New Items for existing contracts are determined for each Contract Interface record. If a GPO Item record for an associated GPO Contract Number does not have one of these, a new record is created on the Contract Interface record for the appropriate level:

  • An associated Contract Interface Line for that Manufacturer Number
  • An associated Contract Interface Line Tier Cost for that tier
  • An associated Contract Interface Line Distributor record for that item supplier

The Contract Interface Line update function is then set to Create.

When all Items for the Contract Interface have been assessed, and if the Auto Update Contracts check box is selected, the Process Contract Line updates action is run for the Contract Interface.
