Assigning tiers and tier qualifiers to contracts

In Lawson Contract Management, tiers are used to calculate the discount or markup on a price or freight cost. They are also used to help determine which participants can receive a markup or discount based on the dollar amount of purchased goods. In addition, tier qualifiers let you establish the requirements that must be met in order to qualify for a specific tier.

Before you create and assign a tier, you should first identify the participants that will be assigned as tier members on the contract. After you identify the participants, the tiers are then used to determine which participants occupy a tier based on the dollar amount of purchased goods.
