Pricing Info
Select the Pricing Info (pricing information) tab.
- Flat Rate and Time And Material
Enter a value that specifies whether a type of service is priced based on a flat rate or based on actual time and materials. Values are:
Blank: A blank value is only valid when defining the method of pricing for a service provider. It is used to indicate that the service provider is an internal service provider and is not paid.
F: Charges for labor are based on a flat rate. Charges for parts are already included in the flat rate.
T: Charges for labor are based on actual labor hours. Charges for parts are based on actual parts used.
- Cost Type
Designate each element of cost for an item. Examples of the cost object types are:
A1: Purchased raw material.
B1: Direct labor routing roll-up.
B2: Setup labor routing roll-up.
C1: Variable burden routing roll-up.
C2: Fixed burden routing roll-up.
Dx: Outside operation routing roll-up.
Xx: Extra add-ons, such as electricity and water.
The optional add-on computations usually operate with the type Xx (extra add-ons). This cost structure can use an unlimited number of cost components to calculate alternative cost roll-ups. The system then associates these cost components with one of six user-defined summary cost buckets.
- Adjustment Schedule
Enter a value from UDC 40/AS to identify the price and adjustment schedule. A price and adjustment schedule contains adjustment types for which a customer or an item might be eligible. The system applies the adjustments in the sequence that you specify in the schedule. You link customers to a price and adjustment schedule through customer billing instructions. When you enter a case, the system copies the schedule attached to the sold-to address into the order. You can override this schedule at the header level.
- Price Effective Date
Enter the price effective date. The system uses the Price Effective Date field to determine the base price and all advanced pricing adjustments. The value loaded in this field is stored in the F4009 table.
- Pricing Units
Enter the amount billed for a case. Depending on the type of charge calculated (the bill item rate basis), the value in this field multiplied by the billing rate produces the gross charge amount.
- Pricing Unit of Measure
Enter a value from UDC 00/UM to specify the unit of measure for an amount or quantity. For example, it can represent a barrel, box, cubic meter, liter, hour, and so forth.
- Taxable
Select this check box if the case is taxable. The system enters default values in the Tax Explanation Code field and the Tax Rate/Area field.
The alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality enables you to assign an alternate tax rate/area when the countries of the entities involved in a transaction are in the European Union (EU).
You can set up the company, the responsible business unit and the site address number to use the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality. When retrieving the billing information, the system checks if the alternate tax rate/area assignment functionality is enabled for the company. If the functionality is enabled, the system retrieves the tax rate/area for the cases added or modified, based on the combination of responsible business unit and site countries.
You can change the tax area from this form on the Pricing Info tab and you can change the entity Responsible Business Unit on the Customer Info tab. If you receive an error message, you can cancel the action and manually change the tax rate/area. If you manually change the tax rate/area, then the system does not overwrite the value you enter.
