Use derived from item

In the Use Derived from Item fields on the Sales and Purchase tabs of the Pricing Parameters (tdpcg0100m000) session, you can define how LN retrieves default prices for customized items.

For these fields, you can select the following values:

  • Yes; Item - Derived-from Item
    First, the customized item is used to define the prices and discounts. Then, the derived-from item is used to define prices and discounts if a customer-specific or default price for an item is not found.
  • No; Only Item
    Only the customized item is used to define the prices and discounts.
  • Yes; Derived-from Item - Item
    First, the derived from item is used to define the prices and discounts. Then, the customized item is used to define prices and discounts if a customer-specific or default price for an item is not found.

If you do not use customized items, or if you want this field to have a minimum impact on system performance, set this field to No; Only Item.
