Material Price Agreement for Procurement (tcmpr0630m000)

Use this session to specify a material price agreement for a price list or buy-from business partner/ship-from business partner, and item or item group.

Note

Leave fields blank if the material price agreement must apply to all items or business partners. For example, if you leave the Ship-from Business Partner field blank, the material price agreement applies to all ship-from business partners.

You can also access this session using the Material Price Agreements for Procurement (tcmpr0130m000) overview session. To start the session, double-click a record, or specify a new agreement.

The lines on the Material Price Agreement Lines tab refer to the Material Price Agreement Lines (tcmpr0131m000) session, in which you can specify date-effective preconditions used to search for and calculate material prices.

 

Material Price Agreement

The code and description of the material price agreement.

Default value

The material price agreement's series is retrieved from the Material Price Agreement Series field in the Purchase User Profiles (tdpur0143m000) session. If no series is specified in that session, the series is defaulted from the Series Material Price Agreements field in the Material Price Parameters (tcmpr0100m000) session.

Price List

List of default prices and discounts for customers and suppliers. You can link price lists to items and item groups, and to sold-to and buy-from business partners.

Note

If a price list is specified, you cannot specify a business partner in the current session. The material price agreement then applies to all buy-from business partners that have the price list linked in the Buy-from Business Partners (tccom4520m000) session.

Buy-from Business Partner

The business partner from whom you order goods or services; this usually represents a supplier's sales department. The definition includes the default price and discount agreements, purchase-order defaults, delivery terms, and the related ship-from and invoice-from business partner.

Note

If a business partner is specified, you cannot specify a price list in this session.

Ship-from Business Partner

The business partner that ships the ordered goods to your organization. This usually represents a supplier's distribution center or warehouse. The definition includes the default warehouse at which you want to receive the goods and if you want to inspect the goods, the carrier that takes care of the transport, and the related buy-from business partner.

Note

If a business partner is specified, you cannot specify a price list in this session.

Item Group

Group of items with similar characteristics. Each item belongs to a particular item group. The item group is used in combination with the item type to set up item defaults.

Note

If an item group is specified, you cannot specify an item in this session.

Item

The raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools that can be purchased, stored, manufactured, and sold.

An item can also represent a set of items handled as one kit, or which exist in multiple product variants.

You can also define nonphysical items, which are not retained in inventory but can be used to post costs or to invoice services to customers. The examples of nonphysical items:

  • Cost items (for example, electricity)
  • Service items
  • Subcontracting services
  • List items (menus/options)
Note
  • The item type can be Manufactured, Purchased, List (kit), or Generic (assembly).
  • If an item group is specified, you cannot specify an item in this session.
