Price change attribute management

Note: The functionality and features detailed in this section are linked to role permissions that can be granted and applied to any user. Even though a non-administrator can use these features, this guide assumes the end-user is a system or IT administrator. If a non-administrator is granted the role permissions to access these features, the steps and information in this section can still be applied.

In Price Change Attribute Management, you can configure custom price attributes and their properties to meet the business needs of a retailer.

For example, a retailer wants to assign price changes to the users on a business team. A system administrator can create a custom Assigned User field as a price change attribute and apply it to all price changes in the system. Then, the retailer can use the Assigned User field to assign price changes to specific users.

During configuration, the system administrator must define the type of attribute being created and then specify the attribute's default value. After selecting the Data Type and specifying the Default Value, additional characteristics specific to that attribute type must be added to the attribute.

For example, you can restrict an attribute to only a specific price change type or you can apply the attribute to all price changes.

When an attribute is successfully created, it can be used in the user interface and added to new price changes. The attribute is also displayed as a field or column in the Price Change List.

Note: Some price change attributes are core attributes and are automatically defined in Price Management. These attributes are not required to be configured and can be used after the initial implementation of the application. Core attributes cannot be deleted or modified.
