Cost Change Data Loading Configuration

Cost changes that are uploaded via either spreadsheet or the bulk batch upload use some of the same item level parameters as defined above. However, there are also a few that are unique for cost changes, as defined in the table below. Note: this configuration can currently only be updated by the Oracle Cloud Operations team in a cloud services implementation.

Variance Comparison Basis

The basis by which the variance between the new and old unit cost are compared against the tolerance set for a supplier site. Valid values are:

  • Both (B) - new cost must fall within both the percent and value variance of the old cost (default)

  • Either (E) - new cost must fall within either the percent or value variance of the old cost

  • Value (D) - new cost must fall within value variance of the old cost

  • Percent (P) - new cost must fall within the percentage variance of the old cost
