Best Amount

You can set up codes for original, quoted, final, and best amounts when you set up detail status codes. The system calculates the best amount, based on whichever of the combinations of original, quoted, and final amounts that you enter for an account type on the Change Request Entry form:

  • If a final amount is entered alone or in combination with other any amounts, the final amount is the best amount.

  • If a quoted and an original amount are entered but no final amount is entered, the quoted amount is the best amount.

  • If only an original amount is entered, the original amount is the best amount.

The system automatically and continuously determines the best amount.
