Creating a Relationship-Based Price Adjustment

Relationship-based price adjustments allow you to adjust the list price of a product when it is a component of a customizable product.

For example, you may sell a model of computer monitor for $300. If the customer who is buying one of your desktop computers chooses this monitor model as an options, you can reduce its price 10% from this list price.

The types of adjustments you can make are described in Table 20.

Discount Amount	Reduces price by: amount entered in the Adjustment Value field.
% Discount	Reduces price by: (amount entered in the Adjustment Value field/100) multiplied by the list price.

% Markup	Increases price by: (amount entered in the Adjustment Value field/100) multiplied by the list price.

To define a relationship-based pricing adjustment

Display the components of the customizable product in the Pricing Designer, as described in Viewing a Product's Components in the Pricing Designer.

In the Adjustment Type field of the component, select the adjustment type.

In the Adjustment Value field of the component, enter the adjustment value.

Collapse the relationship, then expand it, in order to refresh the display.

Verify that the component's Item Price reflects the pricing adjustment.

NOTE: You can modify the relationship-based adjustment by editing the amounts in the Adjustment Type and Adjustment Value field, and you can delete the relationship-based adjustment by deleting the amounts in these fields.
