Quick Matrix Overview

Quick Matrix Maintenance is where you create most of the matrix cells that comprise the pricing matrix. Each matrix cell displays as a line item, and you can access each matrix cell to set up detailed pricing rules. You can review and edit the following parameters for more than one matrix cell at a time:

Formulas and basis names.
Effective and expiration dates.
Price or cost overrides.
Add multiple matrix cells to the matrix.

Use Quick Buy Matrix Maintenance or Quick Sell Matrix Maintenance to set up and maintain groups of buy and sell matrix cells, and use the Buy Matrix Maintenance window and Sell Matrix Maintenance window to add special pricing guidelines to individual matrix cells, such as:

When a vendor is running cost specials.
When a commodity item (pipe, wire, fasteners, etc.) is purchased from more than one vendor.
When products are procured from competitors at a higher price than usual.
When the vendor offers quantity break pricing.

Note: For more information about how this window is laid out, see Reviewing Quick Sell Matrix Maintenance Data.
