How can I override the blanket purchase agreement price in requisitions for goods and services?

You can change the item price on the Edit Requisition page, the Enter Requisition Line page, and through the requisition import program when the blanket purchase agreement allows price override.

You can modify the price within the price limit specified on the agreement line. If no limit is specified you can modify the price with any positive number.

Here's what you can do to override the price:

• You can override price for goods and services in the Enter Requisition Line page when the BPA allows price override.

• You can override price for service lines linked to BPAs when the BPA allows price override. You can change price in shopping pages and also in the Edit Requisition Page.

• You can opt-in the Override Agreement Price on Requisitions feature to override the price of goods-based lines or quantity based items linked to the BPA. Using this feature, you can override the price of goods-based items added to the requisition from the catalog via search, browser, or shopping list. As a requisition preparer, you must first add the item to the shopping cart, and then update the item unit price on the Edit Requisition page.

• The Allow Price Override indicator is on the blanket agreement line. Make sure that you configure the price limit field with the maximum price allowed to be used in the requisition.

• You can overwrite the BPA price in the requisition import program by providing the BPA number in the file-based data import (FBDI) spreadsheet or in the Purchase Request Web Service payload. The BPA must indicate that price override is allowed for the item. If you don't provide the BPA number, and a BPA is automatically sourced, the BPA price will be enforced regardless of the price override indicator.
