A New Matrix-Pricing Business Component

---

You can build your own matrix-pricing business components to suit your purposes. For example, you can design a custom business components so it can be populated with data imported from spreadsheets developed by different pricing specialists, distributing the price administration workload.

The matrix-pricing business component must contain the following fields:

Adjustment Amount. The business component must identify one column that holds the adjustment amount and designate it as the adjustment amount through its user properties, which the pricing engine will use to identify the field. To do this, create a new business component user property named Pricer Adjustment Value. As the value of this user property, specify the name of the column in the business component that stores the adjustment amount.
Type of Calculation. The business component must identify one column that holds the type of calculation, also known as the adjustment type. To do this, create a new business component user property named Property Adjustment Method. As the value of this user property, specify the name of the column in the business component that stores the adjustment type.

For more information about defining data types and tables, see the section about creating tables in Siebel Tools Reference.
