Retrieve Base Price

When you enter an item in the F4101 table, you specify the level at which the system maintains a standard price for an item, or whether that price differs between branch/plants or locations and lots within the branch/plant.

If you use multicurrency, you must set the pricing level so that the system maintains prices for the item based on the branch/plant or the location and lots within each branch/plant.

The unit price that you enter during sales order entry overrides pricing that you have set up on the Base Price Revisions form. If you do not enter a unit price during sales order entry, the system retrieves a price based on pricing hierarchy.

The hierarchy that you set up for the Base Price Preference (51) determines the sequence with which the system searches the F4106 table. The base price hierarchy is a matrix comprising combinations of customers and items and customer and item price groups. You use the intersection of the rows and columns to determine the hierarchy sequence.

The system retrieves price information based on entries in the customer billing instructions and the F4106 table.

During order entry, you can check the price and availability of an item before selecting a price for an item.
