Creating a Sliding Rate Adjustment

Access the Price Adjustment Definition form.

Sliding Rate

Select to have the system apply a sliding rate adjustment. This type of adjustment is based on a collection of rates that is applied from each threshold level. If you do not select this option, the system applies a single rate adjustment. This type of adjustment is based on the most applicable threshold.

Note: If you select the sliding rate, you cannot add a gross profit margin adjustment (basis code 9) to this adjustment.When you select this option, you cannot select the Override Price check box. However, when you use a sliding rate with an upsell adjustment, the system enables the Override Price check box.

As you enter more information on subsequent lines, the system copies all of the field values from the first record to the following records except for the values in the Threshold Value (From Level) and Factor Value Numeric fields. For example, you cannot specify different basis codes or units of measure for different threshold values of the same adjustment. Therefore, the only value that can be different is the one that you specify in the Factor Value Numeric field.
