Understanding Adjustment Revisions

Adjustment revisions allow you to make additional adjustments and to revise adjustments to purchase and sales order adjustments.

You can add an adjustment that applies to the current order detail line. You might do this in response to a negotiated discount; you can create a manual adjustment for any amount.

During sales order entry, you can change the level of discount a customer receives for an order. The price-level change applies only to the current order.

Based on the rebate accrual adjustment definition, the system calculates rebates based on the total amount, quantity, or weight of multiple orders, which accumulate to a volume history file. During order entry, you can access the volume history file to provide additional information to the customer.

Pricing and availability of inventory items is crucial for placing a sales order. Use the Work with Price and Availability form to review pricing and availability of inventory items. Using this form, you can quickly review the price adjustments the system applied to an order line for a specific item.

You can also review the quantity breaks defined for an adjustment type or specify a different quantity break for the current order. To access the Adjustment Quantity Break form during sales order entry, access the form through the Work with Price and Availability form.

You can access the Check Price and Availability program (P4074) from the Sales Order Entry program. If you use Advanced Pricing, you must enter a version of Check Price and Availability in the processing options.

When making a change, you must also enter a code to provide a reason for the change.
