Manage Price Books and Taxation
Price book contains the pricing information of your products. As manufacturers and retailers, you can create and use account-specific pricing in the price books.
You organize and associate organization-specific product pricing along with the tax values. You include the list of approved products for sale, and optionally, two product-specific taxation values to specify the tax values for each product. Price books can be associated with accounts and routes.
The implementation and usage of the price book is role-specific and depending on your role, you can create and associate the price book. The sales administrator role has the privilege to create price book. All users except the marketing manager user can associate a price book with a route and an account.
Create Price Books
Users with sales administrator job role can create price books that can be later associated with multiple accounts.
For a product to be available in the price book, it must first be added to the sales catalog. For more information about creating sales catalog and adding products to it, see the Creating Your Sales Catalog chapter in the Oracle CX Sales Implementing Sales Guide.
For more information about creating price books, see the Setting up Common Components chapter in the Implementing Sales Guide.
When you add products to a price book, ensure you select the same UOM that's used in Oracle Product Value Chain Cloud Product Information Management.
