GP% Control Parameters

Assign each user a minimum gross profit and maximum discount from standard price. Do this on the GP% Control Parameters screen. These stock and direct order settings restrict pricing overrides. Because users with the SOE.MIN.GP and SOE.MAX.DISC authorization keys can still override pricing, the settings only serve as a warning threshold for these users.

Order Entry Pricing Views

Assign each user the appropriate order entry views. Do this using the OE View Selection screen. Different order entry views display prices, costs, and components of pricing and costing formula columns. With proper authorization, you can edit the price and cost columns on the order's Body screen.

Note: Users able to view either Cost or COGS can see the corresponding cost, regardless of their assigned level with the OE.PRICE.VIEW.LEVEL authorization key. Order entry views displaying Cost/COGS override this authorization key.

Customer Pricing

Set pricing preferences for customers. Do this using the Use Last Price (Y/N/P/NULL) field on the Additional Customer Pricing/Printing Data screen. This field setting works together with the Enable Last Price Pricing control maintenance record, and lets you control how last price pricing is used:

The Last Price Verification screen lets you compare a customer's current price for a product to their last price for the same product.
