Enter Part Step Pricing for Supplier Agreement

Explanation

Use this function to enter step pricing for parts on supplier agreements. Part step pricing is used when you receive better terms for purchasing more from the supplier, i.e., if you purchase more, you could receive a lower price, a better discount, and/or lower additional costs. If there is a conflict in validity between a line on the supplier agreement and a line in Part Step Pricing/Steps, the line from the part step pricing will be retrieved to the purchase order line.

Part step pricing is specified for the supplier agreement and purchase part combination. The part step pricing can be valid either for one site or for all sites specified in the supplier agreement. If you want the part step pricing to be valid for one specific site, enter this site in the Site field. It is possible to enter site-specific part step pricing for the same part on several sites, as well as for all sites. A site-dependent part step pricing will always be retrieved before a part step pricing valid for all sites is retrieved.

Prerequisites

• A purchase part must have been entered and saved on the supplier agreement.
• If the part step pricing is site-dependent, the purchase part, as well as the combination of purchase part and supplier, must be entered on the site.
• If the company tax regime is VAT, a tax code must have been defined for the purchase part.

System Effects

• The part step pricing is used if the supplier agreement is allowed to be used for purchasing. When a line from part step pricing is retrieved, the one valid for the total cumulative amount is chosen. 
  Note that it is the cumulative value, including the current purchase order line, that gives you the price. 
• If the company regime is VAT, the relevant tax code will be retrieved from the purchase part. Based on the values in the amounts exclusive of tax fields, amounts inclusive of tax are automatically calculated and displayed in the respective fields
