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 item material information then applies to all sold-to business partners that have the price list linked in the Sold-to Business Partners (tccom4510m000) session.

Sold-to Business Partner

The business partner who orders goods or services from your organization, who owns the configurations you maintain, or for whom you perform a project. Usually a customer's purchase department.

The agreement with the sold-to business partner can include:

  • Default price and discount agreements
  • Sales order defaults
  • Delivery terms
  • The related ship-to and invoice-to business partner
Note

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

Ship-to Business Partner

The business partner to whom you ship the ordered goods. This usually represents a customer's distribution center or warehouse. The definition includes the default warehouse from which you send the goods, the carrier who carries out the transport, and the related sold-to business partner.

Note

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