1. Open the Contract Entry program. You can access this program by selecting Sales Orders -> Contract Pricing-> Contract Entry.
2. For new contracts, refer to the How to enter contract header information procedure for details. For existing contracts, enter the contract number in the Contract # field. Press
to search.
3. In the browser in the lower portion of the screen, highlight a contract price (for Q-quantity break contract types) and click
to add pricing information. For Q-quantity breaks contract types you can enter a quantity break price and breaks 1-6.
4. (Optional) To enter a quantity break price, select the Type, Break 1-6 in the line browser.
5. Enter the minimum quantity that must be sold on a sales order document in order to utilize the price from the level. Quantity break is always defined in the selling unit of measure.
For example, the standard price of I100 is $10.00 ea., the break 1 price is $9.75 and the break 2 price is $9.50. In order to receive a price of $9.75 the customer must purchase a minimum of 50. In order to receive a price of $9.50 the customer must purchase a minimum of 100. Therefore break 1’s quantity is 50 and break 2’s quantity is 100.
If the contract is for a non-specific item, i.e., item price class, vendor or all items, the quantity break will apply to any item in that group of items regardless of UM. For example, if 10 is set as the quantity for quantity break 1, it would apply to 10 boxes of widgets as well as 10 cases of wickets (as long as widgets and wickets were within the same item scope defined on the contract).
6. If the contract is for a specific item, the quantity break price may be entered as a basis and multiplier, a set price or a change %. If the contract is for a non-specific item (i.e., item price class, vendor or all items), the quantity break price may be entered as a basis and multiplier. The valid options for basis for quantity break prices are as follows: list price, manual cost, sales order entry cost, standard price, quantity break price (up to the level being entered, e.g., if quantity break 3 is being entered, you may enter 1 - 3 as the basis for quantity break 3).
Basis: The valid options for basis for quantity break price are list price, manual cost, sales order entry cost, standard price, any quantity break price or level price(up to the level being entered, e.g., if quantity break 3 is being entered, you may enter 1 - 3 as the basis for quantity break 3), entered in Costing and Pricing programs located in the Inventory Control module.
Mult: The multiplier for the quantity break price.
-OR-
Price: The set price for the contract quantity break price line. (If you select N/A as the basis you can enter a set price in this field.)
Commission %: In addition to the three set up options for the quantity break prices, you can also enter a commission %. An Inventory Control static record flag determines whether this commission flag is used throughout the costing/pricing subsystem. If the flag is turned off, the option to enter the commission % is never available. If the flag is turned on, each contract price that is set up will require the field of a commission %. When entering the commission %, you can set the commission % to "no priority" (blank) indicating that commission is not generated based on the price being set up. (If the item is set to "no priority", any commission % entered in the contract pricing system will be ignored). (For more information on commissions, refer to the commission basis flag set in the Company Control F/M program in the System Management module.)
