| Price, rate, and discount controlIn the Pricing Parameters (tdpcg0100m000) session, the following Control fields determine the following: Price control Which sales price or purchase price must be used from price
books found by a price matrix. Freight rate control Which client freight rate or carrier freight rate must be used
from freight rate books found by a freight rate matrix. Discount control Which sales discount or purchase discount must be used from
discount schedules found by a discount matrix.
You can select the following values for these
fields: Price control First Price For a specific matrix definition, LN uses the first price
found in the price matrix with the most recent effective date. Lowest Price For a specific matrix definition, LN retrieves the first
price found in the price matrix with the most recent effective date. However,
if other relevant matrix definitions are applicable, LN continues searching
these other price matrices for lower prices. LN uses the lowest
price found in a matrix.
Freight rate control First Rate For a specific matrix definition, LN uses the first
freight rate found in the freight rate matrix with the most recent effective
date. Lowest Rate For a specific matrix definition, LN retrieves the first
freight rate found in the freight rate matrix with the most recent effective
date. However, if other relevant matrix definitions are applicable, LN continues searching
these other freight rate matrices for lower rates. LN uses the lowest
freight rate found in a matrix.
Discount control First Discount LN uses the first valid discount found in the level and ignores any other valid
discounts. The first valid discount is the one with the lowest matrix sequence
number. If more than one discount has the lowest sequence number, the first
discount is the one with the latest effective date. When the first discount is
found, the search for discounts stops. Best Discount LN uses
the best discount found for the level and disregards the matrix sequence
priorities. Accumulate All valid discounts are retrieved and returned as one
aggregated percentage. The maximum aggregated discount percentage is 100.
