The following process describes how the OM_PPRC_OUT application engine determines the products and prices to include in the product price list using the retail catalog.

1. The OM_PPRC_OUT application engine first determines what sold-to customer contacts are set up to receive the product price list information by EDI/XML from the Contact Additional Info page.

   If a customer or customer group is entered on the Product Price List Message Selection page, the program sends only product price list information to the specified contact for the customer or sold-to customers belonging to the specified pricing customer group that is set up on the Customer Group Table page. For each of these customers, the program inserts any products that are attached to the retail catalog into a temporary table. If a particular customer is not attached to any catalog, or if no catalog number is entered in the selection options that are on the Product Price List Message Selection page:

   1. The program attempts to retrieve products from the retail catalog where the customer's pricing customer group is attached to the catalog.

   2. If no customer group is attached to the catalog, the program attempts to retrieve products from the Price List tables.

      The program looks for any records that exist on the Price List tables for the sold-to customer being processed and inserts those products into a temporary table. If a price list ID is entered as optional criteria, the program selects only products for that price list ID.

   3. If no price list records are found for the sold-to customer being processed, the program looks at the Price List tables to determine if any price lists are attached to the sold-to customer's pricing customer group and inserts those products into a temporary table. If a price list ID is entered as optional criteria, the program selects only products for that price list ID.

   4. Finally, if a particular customer has no catalogs or price lists, the program retrieves all active products from the PROD_ITEM table. If a product group is entered as optional criteria, the program selects only products that are for the specified product group.

2. When the program has a list of products for each customer, it retrieves prices for each of the products.

   The system uses the lowest price on the most recent start date on or before today's date.

   1. The program first determines whether price lists are set up for the sold-to customer and product combination that is being processed and inserts the lowest list price, start date, unit of measure, and so on, into a temporary table. Again, if a price list ID is entered as optional criteria, the program look only at prices from the specified price list ID.

   2. If no price lists are found for the customer and product ID combination, the program then determines whether price lists are set up for the customer's pricing customer group and product that is being processed. The system inserts the lowest list price, start date, unit of measure, and so on into a temporary table. Again, if a price list ID is entered as optional criteria, the program looks only at prices from the specified price list ID.

   3. If no price lists are found for the customer and product ID or customer group and product ID combination, the program retrieves the prices from the PROD_PRICE table and inserts them into a temporary table. If an inventory business unit is entered as optional criteria, the program loads PROD_PRICE records only for the specified inventory business unit.
