Establishing Price Override Reason Codes (WPOR)
Purpose: Price override reason codes let an authorized operator change an item price or enter an item at no charge in Order Entry or Order Maintenance. You need to designate one or more price override reason codes for promotional, telemarketing, or upsell items that may be added to an order automatically. When an item is added to the order from a promotion, the system updates the Override field on the order detail line with the default override reason code designated for the type of promotion or upsell so that you can track the discounts by override reason. Price overrides apply only at the line item level.
The Price Override Reason table stores the number of price overrides and the net discount associated with each reason code.
Default Price Override Reasons
You can set up the following default price override reason codes in the System Control table:
• Default Price Override Reason (B35)
• Price Override Code for Promotional Priced Lines (B61) Note: This system control value is not currently implemented. The system applies the Default Price Override Reason (B35) to promotional priced lines.
• Price Override Reason for Same Price Exchanges (D92)
• Price Table Level Override Code (E05)
• Telemarketing Special Price Override Reason (F36) Note: The Telemarketing Special Price Override Reason (F36) cannot be the same as the Price Table Level Override Code (E05).
• Default Price Override Reason for Warranty Items (G01)
• Price Override Reason for B2B Orders (G08)
• Price Override Reason for E-Commerce (G73)
• Price Override Reason for SVC Refund Item (I74)
• Price Override Reason for Price Matrix Customer Specials (K42)
• Price Override Reason for Promotions (K45)
• Price Override Reason for Quotes (K75)
• Order Broker Price Override (K95)
• Price Override Reason Code for CPG Pricing (L59)
Note: You cannot apply the Price Override Reason for Price Matrix Customer Specials (K42), Price Override Reason for Promotions (K45), or Price Table Level Override Code (E05) to an order line in order entry; these price override reason codes are reserved for system use.
See the description of each system control value for more information.
ChannelAdvisor default: The ChannelAdvisor integration uses a price override reason code of W. You cannot change this default. See ChannelAdvisor Integration Overview and ChannelAdvisor Setup for background.
Secured features: The Price Overrides (A23) secured feature controls the ability to override a price in order entry, and the Override Price Override Limit (A64) controls the ability to exceed the Price Override Limit Percent (E55).
Report: You can use the Printing the Price Override Reason Report (PROR) option to generate a report indicating the number of units, discount amount, and discount percentage applied through price override reason codes. The report does not include price override reason codes whose Exclude from price override report field is selected.

Overriding the Item/SKU Offer Price
The Override item offer price field for a price override reason code indicates whether to use the price override amount entered in order entry as the item/SKU offer price for the order. The item offer price is stored in the Order Detail table for each order line. The following table describes how the system handles various functions depending upon how this flag is set for a price override reason code:
Function |
Flag is selected |
Flag is unselected |
For examples, see: |
posting the sale price to the General Ledger Interface table |
• Credit the price override amount that you enter in order entry to Merchandise sales. • Debit the difference between the price override entered and the selling price (resulting from any additional discounts) to Merchandise discount. |
If there is an offer price: • Credit the offer price to Merchandise sales. • Debit the difference between the offer price and the selling price (including any additional discounts) to Merchandise discount. If there is no offer price: • Credit the entire selling price (reflecting any additional discounts) to Merchandise discount. |
|
calculating the discount amount on an order or order detail line |
The discount amount equals the difference between the override price entered and the final selling price; in other words, it equals any additional discounts applied after the price override. When an item is added to the order at no charge (for example, an accompanying item) then the regular offer price is not included in the discount total on the order. |
• If an item/SKU offer price exists, the discount amount equals the difference between the offer price and the selling price. When an item is added to the order at no charge (for example, an accompanying item) then the regular offer price is included in the discount total on the order. • If an item/SKU offer price does not exist, the discount amount equals the selling price of the item, presented as a negative number. |
The Discount field at the Display Invoice Header Screen |
evaluating the order or order detail line for a minimum coupon dollar amount |
The system uses the price override amount entered to evaluate the order or line for a dollar minimum. |
The system uses the regular, single-unit offer price of the item or SKU to evaluate the order or line for a dollar minimum. If there is no offer price, the item cannot qualify for a coupon with a dollar minimum. |
|
highlighting discounted prices if the Display Order Line Discount Messages (F01) system control value is selected |
The system does not highlight the overridden price. |
The system highlights the overridden price and displays the discount calculation message if an item/SKU offer price exists. |
