Price Override Reason for Price Matrix Customer Specials (K42)

Purpose: Use this screen to define the price override reason code the system assigns to an order line that is priced using a quantity price matrix customer special.

Code field: Enter the price override reason code that you want the system to assign to an order line that is priced using a Quantity Price Matrix Customer Special.

The system assigns this price override reason code to order lines that are priced using a Quantity Price Matrix Customer Special during End of Order Quantity Price Matrix Pricing. Any order lines that are assigned this price override reason code cannot be further discounted. However, you can still apply a source % discount to these order lines.

In addition, the system prevents you from manually entering this price override reason code on an order line in order entry and order maintenance: Price override reason reserved and cannot be manually entered.

Order API: If an order line on a web order qualifies for a Quantity Price Matrix Customer Special, the system assigns the Price Override Reason for Price Matrix Customer Specials (K42) to the order line when it receives the initial order message. The system sends the final quantity price matrix price in the first pass and second pass of the Detailed Order XML Response (CWORDEROUT); see Discounted and Added Items in the CWOrderOut Response Message.

Note: The system does not validate that the price override reason code defined in the Price Override Reason for Price Matrix Customer Specials (K42) system control value is not passed as the prc_ovr_reason for an order line received through the generic order interface. However, you should not use this price override reason code as the override reason code for any manually entered price that you define in the actual_price.

Leave this field blank if you want to allow the system to apply further discounting, such as promotions, to order lines that are priced using a Quantity Price Matrix Customer Special.

Price override reason codes are defined in and validated against the Establishing Price Override Reason Codes (WPOR) menu option.
