High priority supplier price book

If you defined a Supplier Price Book in the Pricing Parameters (tdpcg0100m000) session, you can select the High Priority check box for the supplier price book in the Price Book Lines (tdpcg0131m000) session. If this check box is selected, the price of the buy-from business partner/ ship-from business partner/ item combination has priority over the prices stored under the normal matrix sequence structure.

By assigning a high priority to the price book, you can avoid the concept of setting up matrix definitions, linking them to price books, giving them a search priority, and so on. This allows you to quickly retrieve and maintain prices for a buy-from business partner/ship-from business partner/ item combination. Therefore, if you select the High Priority check box, the search sequence for retrieving purchase prices is limited, which saves performance.
