You cannot enter agreements on a contract line that relate to both an item and a price group. Customer Item The item code in the coding system. LN converts this item
code to the item code used in your own company. This conversion allows you to,

effective date often includes the effective time. Note A relationship with an order or schedule can only exist if the order date on the order line or the start date on the schedule line falls within the effective period of the contract.

amount is expressed as a percentage of the (gross) contract amount. The Discount % is calculated as follows: Discount Amount / (agreed quantity * price) * 100% Discount Amount The discount amount resulting from the order line discount.
This amount is calculated as follows: Order Line Discount Amount = Quantity * Price * Order Line Discount/100 The calculation result is rounded. The order line discount amount is always expressed in the order/quotation currency. Note The order (contract) line discount used in this formula, is the total of the level of discounts entered in the Line Discounts (tdpcg0200m200) session. Net Amount The net contract line amount, which is calculated based on the
agreed quantity. It is calculated as follows: Agreed Quantity * Price - Discount Amount
Determining If this check box is selected, the selected contract
line is taken into account when the total contract value is calculated for
applying total contract discount to contracts. Eligible If this check box is selected, the calculated discount
percentage is applied to the selected contract line. Calculate Price with Cumulative If this check box is selected, LN retrieves the price
and discounts from the price book and discount schedules, based on the total
cumulative quantities of the linked sales orders and sales schedules. The sales price/discount that is retrieved from the sales contract price book/discount schedule, is based on the following calculation: Contract called quantity + Sales order/schedule line quantity (converted to the unit of the contract line's agreed quantity) Note This functionality only applies if a price book/discount schedule is linked to the contract. Example The sales contract price book that is entered on the sales contract line is defined as follows:
The following sales order lines are created:
Redetermine Price and Discounts at Shipment If this check box is selected, and a sales schedule is
linked to this contract line, sales schedule line prices and/or discounts are
recalculated during shipment. Therefore, the delivered amount of the shipped
goods reflects the actual contract price information. When prices and discounts are redetermined, depends on the value of the sales schedule line's Payment field.
If this check box is cleared, and a sales schedule is linked to this contract line, the price and discounts cannot be redetermined after the sales schedule is approved and planned warehouse orders are created. Note
Minimum Quantity The minimum contract quantity that you want to sell, expressed in the sales unit. The quantity sold to the business partner often differs from the contract quantity. As a result, you can record the minimum quantity to be sold in the contract.

Minimum Quantity The minimum contract quantity that you want to sell, expressed in the inventory
unit. Maximum Quantity The maximum contract quantity that you want to sell, expressed in the sales unit. The quantity sold to the business partner often differs from the contract quantity. Therefore, you can record the maximum quantity to be sold in the contract. Use the Evaluate Sales Contracts (tdsls3420m000) session to calculate the difference between called quantities and the maximum contract quantity. Note When the maximum quantity is reached, in the Action on Exceeding Maximum Quantity field of the current session, you can define what action is taken. Maximum Quantity The maximum contract quantity that you want to sell, expressed in the inventory
unit. Action on Exceeding Maximum Quantity You can select the action that is carried out when the maximum contract quantity is exceeded. Note

Maximum Quantity Tolerance The quantity, expressed in the sales unit, by which the maximum contract quantity can be exceeded before sales orders and schedules can
no longer be linked to the contract line. If quantities fall within this
tolerance margin, you are notified about the expiration of the contract line. Note You can only fill this field if the Action on Exceeding Maximum Quantity is set to Skip Contract. Maximum Quantity Tolerance The quantity, expressed in the inventory unit, with which the maximum contract quantity can be exceeded before sales orders and schedules can
no longer be linked to the contract line. If a maximum quantity tolerance is
applicable, you are notified about the expiration of the contract line. Note You can only fill this field if the Action on Exceeding Maximum Quantity is set to Skip Contract.

This field is used for informational purposes only. Default value The Minimum Order Quantity specified in the Items - Sales Business Partner (tdisa0510m000) session. If this quantity is zero, or if no combination exists for the item and sold-to business partner in the Items - Sales Business Partner (tdisa0510m000) session, the default order quantity is retrieved from the Items - Sales (tdisa0501m000) session. Minimum Order Quantity The minimum order quantity, expressed in the sales unit. This field is used for informational purposes only.

recorded, such as piece, kilogram, box of 12, or meter.

These conversions always use the inventory unit as the base unit. An inventory unit therefore applies to all item types, also to item types that cannot be kept in stock. Invoiced Quantity The total number of invoiced items on sales orders/schedules related to a sales contract, expressed in the inventory unit. Based on the invoiced quantity, the effective date and the expiry date, you can calculate the possible end quantity on the expiry date by extrapolating data. If you run the Process Delivered Sales Orders (tdsls4223m000)/ Process Delivered Sales Schedules (tdsls3223m000) session, the invoiced quantity is raised for each contract-related order/schedule line. Note Order discounts are not accounted for. Only the net goods amounts are totalized. Invoiced Quantity The total number of invoiced items on sales orders/schedules related to a sales contract, expressed in the sales unit. Called Amount The total of the called amounts for all the sales order/schedule lines that are linked to the
