| Matrix Definition (tdpcg0610m000) Matrix Type Defines the type of a matrix definition and is linked to a set
of matrix attributes. The following matrix types are available in Pricing: - Sales Price
- Sales Line Discount
- Sales Total Discount
- Purchase Price
- Purchase Line Discount
- Purchase Total Discount
- Transfer Price
- Line Promotions
- Order Promotions
- Client Freight Rate
- Carrier Freight Rate
Each type has its own a selection of attributes. For a matrix
type, the combination of a maximum of six attributes identifies 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. Combine by Price Group If this check box is selected, the Apply Cumulative Discounts option is available in the Price and Discount Recalculation Parameters (tdpcg0240s000) session. This option enables you to apply
cumulative discounts to calculate discounts based on all items that belong to
the same price group. Note This field is only applicable if the matrix type is Sales Line Discount or Purchase Line Discount. Performance aspects The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Combine items for Pricing.
