Creating the Attribute Pricing Table Header
The attribute pricing table header data includes data that specifies your strategic approach to attribute pricing for a product or class of products. Before you create the table header, you should do the planning described in the section Decisions About Attribute-Based Pricing Table Design.
CAUTION: If you delete an attribute pricing table header, all references to that attribute pricing table in any price list line item become invalid, and all price adjustments associated with that attribute pricing table are lost. Do not delete a table unless you want this result. Create a complete backup of your Siebel ePricer system data before you delete a table.
