Working with Special Pricing by Source Code (WSPP)

Purpose: Use the Work with Source Special Pricing function to create special price breaks for items by source code. The special pricing you define can include quantity breaks and associate pricing.

In addition to this menu option, you can also use the Special Pricing option in Working with Source Codes (WSRC) or the Source Prices option in Work with Items (see Entering Additional Item Information). Using Work with Source Special Pricing makes the task easier if you are entering special pricing for multiple items and/or source codes.

For example, you can use the Special Pricing by Source Code function to enter two source codes (SOURCE1 and SOURCE2) and two quantity breaks for the same item ($10 for 1 of ITEM1 and $9 for 5 of ITEM1). The function will create the following four special prices by source code:

• $10 for 1 of ITEM1 for SOURCE1

• $9 for 5 of ITEM1 for SOURCE1

• $10 for 1 of ITEM1 for SOURCE2

• $9 for 5 of ITEM1 for SOURCE2

You cannot create special pricing by source code for different SKUs of an item. You must define special pricing for the base item, and the pricing will apply to all SKUs.

Related system control values:

• If the Perform Source Pricing Validation (D62) system control value is selected and there are any source special pricing records set up for the source code on the order header, the system prevents you from adding any items to the order if they are not included in the special source pricing.

• The Pricing Values (B31) system control value controls the order in which the system evaluates pricing options for the order, based on the priority assigned to the Special by Source Sequence # (A82) system control value.
