Zero-Level Control Implementation Overview
A zero-level of control results from not defining any of these setups, including no item-supplier relationships. In this scenario, no supplier automatically appears on the requisition, so the standard price is used. You can enter a suggested supplier, but the standard price remains. During the requisition selection process, you can select a supplier if the field is blank or change the supplier that the requester suggested. Because none of the setups were defined, the purchase order is built with the same pricing as the requisition or any buyer pricing updates are performed through requisition selection. Failure to establish item-supplier relationships prevents the creation of contracts. In the same scenario, purchase orders created online use the standard price as well.
