Understanding Complex Price Groups

To simplify the process of defining and maintaining base prices, you set up price groups for the customers and items with similar characteristics. A complex price group contains the same combinations of information as a simple price group except that the subgroups are based on category codes, such as a specific item type, customer geographic location, line of business, or sales volume. You can set up complex customer price groups and complex item price groups.

Complex price groups can be used as override search groups. You establish the complex price groups and define them as override price groups by entering the price group name on the adjustment definition.

Note: While you can use complex price groups for standard sales-order adjustments, you can use complex price groups for purchase order adjustments only if you are using JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Advanced Pricing and Procurement. You cannot use complex price groups for purchase orders unless you have set up purchase order adjustments in Advanced Pricing.
