Global Update of Sales Prices via Price Matrices (tdpcg0230m310)

Use this session to update sales prices in sales price matrices.

To update prices, proceed as follows:

  1. Select a Matrix Definition to update prices that are linked to sales price matrices that use the selected Matrix Definition.
  2. Specify your selection range on the General tab of this session. Specifying ranges will narrow down the selection of sales price matrices selected in the previous step.
  3. Specify the selection range for matrix attributes. By specifying a range of matrix attributes, you can fine-tune your selection of applicable price matrices: only matrices that have matrix attributes of the specified range are selected. As a result, only the prices of the selected price matrices will be updated. You can specify a range of matrix attributes on the Sales tab of this session.
  4. Create a report to update the (ranges of) attributes. If you only want to simulate an update report, select the Simulation Only check box.
Note
  • Update the price on the General tab of this session. Specify the percentage or the amount by which the prices must be updated.
  • Only matrix attributes are enabled that are defined for the Matrix Definition.

Matrix Definition
Defines the group of elements (matrix attributes) that a Pricing matrix uses to determine a price, discount, promotion, or freight rate.

Imagine you are a furniture vendor and you decide to maintain your sales prices based on two elements:

  • The specific item you sell.
  • The way to handle payments.

In this case, the matrix type is Sales Price, the matrix definition is Furni (this name is user-definable), and the matrix attributes are Item and Payment Method.

Note
  • Matrix definitions are maintained in the Matrix Definitions (tdpcg0110m000) session.
  • You cannot enter matrix definitions without matrix attributes in this session.

Example

A rounding code can define the following ranges with their rounding values:

  • Up to 100: round to whole numbers
