Best pricing, or sales order pricing, enables you to create price lists that accommodate a wide range of pricing situations. Instead of matching price lists strictly through items or product lines, the system can determine best prices using flexible categories of items and customers called analysis codes.

Sales Order Pricing Workflow gives steps for setting up a typical sales order pricing operation. Each step is discussed in detail in the sections that follow.

Sales order pricing includes both the Analysis Code menu (1.8) and the SO/SQ/RMA Issues Pricing menu (1.10.1). Sales order price lists are used to price orders you create in Sales Order Maintenance (7.1.1), Sales Quote Maintenance (7.12.1), and RMA Maintenance (11.7.1.1). Price break categories allow volume price breaks for multiple items. Break categories are assigned to item numbers.
