Pricing Unit of Measure (Branch) Preference

Use the Pricing Unit of Measure (Branch) preference to:

  • Override the Pricing Unit of Measure field by branch (in the default sales detail line).

    The system completes the sales detail line based on information in the processing options of P4210 or the Item Master program (P4101). You might use this preference when the company has negotiated a price with a customer in a specific unit of measure. You then must set up pricing for the customer and item in that unit of measure and enter a Pricing Unit of Measure preference to ensure that the system automatically adds the pricing unit of measure to the order. The pricing unit of measure can differ from the transaction unit of measure and can vary by branch/plant.

  • Calculate the Price at Ambient/Standard.

    The system uses this flag at the time of delivery confirmation to re-extend the price using the standard or ambient temperature, depending on which value you want.

    Note: Leaving any of the key fields blank indicates you want to specify all values for that field. For example, a blank in the Business Unit field causes the system to apply the Pricing Unit of Measure (Branch) preference to all business units.

Before you use this preference:

  • Set the sales price retrieval unit of measure in system constants.

  • Confirm that a base price or advanced pricing record exists for the pricing unit of measure to be entered in this preference.
