Effective Price Assignments for Account

The Effective Price Assignments for Account zone lists the price item pricing (i.e. price assignments) which are effective on the current date. In other words, it lists effective pricing for price items or price item bundles assigned to the account either directly or through the customer hierarchy. The order in which the price assignments are listed is controlled by the Price Assignment Search algorithm defined for the division to which the account belongs. If required, you can filter effective price assignments using various search criteria.

Note:

The Effective Price Assignments for Account zone appears when the Customer 360° Information is searched for account.

If the effective pricing is available for the price item, regular bundle (to which the price item belongs), and parent (regular) bundle (i.e. to which the regular bundle belongs) at the same level, the system lists the pricing depending on the value defined for the Prefer Price Item Over Bundle parameter in the price assignment search algorithm. If the value of the Prefer Price Item Over Bundle parameter is set to Y, the system lists effective pricing which is available for the price item. If the effective pricing is not available for the price item, then the system lists effective pricing which is available for the regular bundle at the same level. If the effective pricing is not available for the regular bundle, then the system lists effective pricing which is available for the parent bundle at the same level. However, if the value of the Prefer Price Item Over Bundle parameter is set to N, the system lists effective pricing which is available for the parent bundle. If the effective pricing is not available for the parent bundle, then the system lists effective pricing which is available for the regular bundle at the same level. If the effective pricing is not available for the regular bundle, then the system lists effective pricing which is available for the price item at the same level.

If you do not want an agreed pricing to automatically expire when it is overridden, you must set the Expire Override Switch option type of the C1_​EXP_​OVRD feature configuration to N.
