Establishing Prerequisites for Margin Adjustments

Before you can create price adjustments for margins:

  • On the Order Management Setup page for the Order Management business unit, establish a default reason code for price adjustments.

  • On the Orders - Sales and Orders - Quotes user preferences pages, establish a default reason code for price adjustments for each user to optionally override the setting on the Order Management business unit.

  • On the Order Entry Features page for the Order Management business unit, select the option for margin adjustments from the drop-down list box. The available options are Not Enabled, Sales Order & Quote, Sales Order Only, and Quote Only.

  • Establish feature function security for margin manipulation in the Feature Function Security component.

  • On the Product Definition - Options page and the Product Groups Table page, establish whether you want the product or product group to use alternate cost and, if so, the percent for the alternate cost.

  • On the Product Attributes by UOM page and Product Group Table page, establish whether you want the product or product group to be adjusted using the Pricing Option field.
