Sell groups in a combination group must reference the same price line in Buy/Sell Group Maintenance. This ensures that the price basis assigned to a price line is the same for all of the combination group's sell groups.
For example, when you create a C-type (combination quantity break) matrix cell for each sell group in the combination group, the system references the price basis and pricing formulas assigned to the matrix cell and calculates the price for items in the group.
Create combination groups and assign sell groups to the combination groups in one of the following ways:
While creating buy groups and sell groups in Buy/Sell Group Maintenance, access Combination Group Maintenance by entering a name for a new combination group.
Create all of your buy and sell groups in Buy/Sell Group Maintenance, then go to Combination Group Maintenance and create the combination groups. Return to Buy/Sell Group Maintenance to assign the sell groups to the combination group.
To combine sell groups for quantity break pricing:
From the Maintenance > Price Maintenance menu, select Buy/Sell Group. On the Buy/Sell Group Maintenance window, enter the necessary information to create the buy or sell group. Then enter a combination group ID in the Combo Group field.
In the Combination Group field, enter the name of the combination group, or click the New Group button to display the New Combination Group dialog box, where you complete the following fields:
Price Line - Select the price line ID that contains the sell groups for the combination group.
New Combination Group -Enter the name of the new combination group.
Click the Create button to display the Combination Group Maintenance window.
In the Description field, enter a description for the contents of the combination group, up to 23 characters.
In the Unit of Measure field, enter a common unit of measure for defining quantity breaks for the items sold as part of the combination group.
Sell groups in a combination group can have different units of measure for pricing, but they must have a common combination group unit of measure. Use one of the units of measure defined for the price line, # (weight), or $ (dollars).
Note: The combination group unit of measure overrides the sell groups unit of measure.
Check the Split Qty Pricing check box to activate split quantity pricing for the combination group.
In the Quantity column for Quantity Break 1 through Quantity Break 5, set up your definitions for quantity breaks. When you enter a number, the system appends the combination group unit of measure to the number.
When you create a C-type matrix cell for each sell group in the combination group, the system displays the quantity breaks and unit of measure defined on the Sell Matrix Maintenance window.
