Use split quantity pricing to encourage the purchase of package quantities on an order. If a customer orders a quantity in excess of a matrix cell's first quantity break, but the remaining quantity does not reach the break point of the next quantity, the excess items purchased are priced without quantity break pricing.
Note: The default selection for this area is No.
The following diagram shows quantity break pricing with Split Quantity Pricing activated and 50ea as the first quantity break in the matrix cell. A customer who orders 55 pieces from this price line receives the first quantity break pricing on 50 items, but the remaining 5 items are priced with no quantity break pricing. If Split Quantity Pricing is not activated, all 55 items receive the quantity break price.
With the proper authority and the assignment of the SOE.SPLIT.PRICING authorization key, you can override split quantity pricing in Sales Order Entry.
Keep in mind the following when setting up split quantity pricing:
The split quantity pricing setting on the Combination Group Maintenance window overrides the setting on the Sell Matrix Maintenance window.
If the matrix type is set to O (override cost only), Split Quantity Pricing is inaccessible.
Split quantity pricing is not supported when repricing items.
