How You Assign Standalone Selling Prices Using the Revenue Basis Data Import Template

For third-party order systems, you can import the unit standalone selling price directly with your source document information when loading the source document lines through the Revenue Basis Data Import template.

If you import unit standalone selling prices on the source document lines through the template, the application won't validate, calculate, or assign the standalone selling price for the line. The application bypasses the following standalone selling price configuration setups:

Manage Standalone Selling Price Profiles
Manage Pricing Dimensions Value Sets
Manage Pricing Dimension Structures
Manage Pricing Dimension Assignments
Manage Pricing Dimension Bands
Manage Standalone Sales Pool Exclusion Rules and
Manage Item Groups

When you renew a contract using the Create Contract Renewal Source Data process, the process copies the value of the unit standalone selling price imported on the original source document line.

When using the Revenue Basis Data Import template, keep these points in mind:

You can revise the value of the unit standalone selling price sent through the Revenue Basis Data Import template only until the contract is frozen.
The imported value for the Unit SSP attribute must be an absolute value, regardless of whether it's a percentage or a price.
The unit standalone selling price imported along with the source document line is used only for that line. This value won't be used for any other source document line even if the line has the same item, pricing dimension, unit of measure, currency, and effective period.

If you need to correct an imported standalone selling price on a source document line that has already been identified into a revenue contract, the method you use depends on the status of the contract:

When the revenue contract is allocated, you must first discard the contract and then import a version line with the correct standalone selling price.
When the revenue contract isn't yet allocated, import a version line with the corrected standalone selling price.

To correct standalone selling prices on allocated contracts, perform these steps:

Run the Discard Customer Contracts process with the Submit Identify Customer Contracts parameter set to No.
Import version lines with the revised standalone selling prices.
Run the Validate Customer Contract Source Data process.
Run the Identify Customer Contracts process.

You can use this method of importing standalone selling prices along with other methods. For example, you can import the unit standalone selling price for a particular item or classification of items through the Revenue Basis Data Import template and use the observed standalone selling price or estimated selling price for others.
