Completing the Generated Adjustment Items


The adjustment item records you generate contain the minimum data required by the system. They do not include the actual price adjustment data that they will use or Description text.

When you use the Adjustment Item Generator, Siebel ePricer always inserts the Default Starting Adjustment Type defined in the attribute pricing table header in each record's Adjustment Type field, and it enters zero (0) in Adjustment Value field, because this is a required field.

To complete the generated table, you must replace these defaults with the actual values needed in the Adjustment Type and Adjustment value fields, described in Table 25.

Table 25.  Adjustment Types in Attribute Pricing Tables

You may also use the Description field to enter text that describes the purpose of the adjustment item.

NOTE:  If you have just generated the table, it is automatically displayed in the Adjustment Items list, so you can skip steps 1 through 3 of the following procedure.
