Vendor pricing records

In addition to tracking customer and rebate pricing, use PD Pricing Setup to define special product prices and discounts for your vendors. Pricing records for vendors apply to all orders that are created through Purchase Order Entry and the Purchase Entry Recommended Replenishment Action Report. Each record contains the information provided by the vendor for target buying, such as minimum quantity, vendor base price, vendor list price, quantity breaks, and discounts.

Only those products given special prices and discounts above and beyond the costs contained on the Product Warehouse Product Setup record require a vendor pricing record. When you purchase a product that does not have a special pricing record, the Cost Type Assignments specified in SA Administrator Options-Products-Costs are applied when you create a purchase order.

You can set up each record for an indefinite period of time, or specify an ending date to limit the length of time the prices and discounts are valid. You can also define a quantity break based on the quantity, weight, or cube.

Note:  Prices are stored as you enter them, regardless of the values specified in the Price Rounding and Price Target fields in SA Administrator Options-Products-Pricing.
