Price Adjustments with an Actual Amount

For price adjustments with an actual amount, the Advanced Price and Adjustment program:

  • Copies the original price adjustment record.

  • Calculates a new price adjustment based on the currency code and exchange rate you specify in the processing options.

  • Creates a price adjustment record with the new currency, new amount, or both.

You can generate new price adjustments for records that have an actual amount, such as those with a basis code of 4 (cost plus) or 5 (add on). You can also create new price adjustments for level breaks based-on amounts. You cannot create new price adjustments for amounts with a basis code of 7 (formula).

For example, a price adjustment for 100 CAD is assigned a basis code of 5 (add-on amount), and you want to create a price adjustment in the JPY. The exchange rate is 1 CAD = 75.11881 JPY, and the multiplier method converts the rate to JPY. The new price adjustment is 75,119 JPY (100 CAD × 75.11881 JPY = 75,118.81).
