Introduction to Pricing
The system supports automatic pricing in a number of key transactions. The simplest way to establish prices is by associating prices with items in Item Master Maintenance. However, this approach is often too inflexible to meet the needs of modern companies.
For greater flexibility, there are three pricing models based on price lists: best pricing, list/discount table pricing for suppliers, and list/discount table pricing for customer schedules and RMA receipts. These models are represented by submenus on the Pricing and Discount menu (1.10).
Use price lists based on the best pricing model for sales orders, sales quotes, and issue lines on Service/Support Management (SSM) return material authorizations. Set up these price lists in SO/SQ/RMA Issues Pricing Menu (1.10.1).
Use price lists based on the list/discount table model to create price lists that are assigned to suppliers in Supplier Maintenance, default to new purchase requisitions, blanket orders, purchase orders, and supplier schedule orders, and cannot be specified in customer scheduled orders or RMA credit price lists. Set up these prices in Supplier Pricing Menu (1.10.2).
Use price lists based on the list/discount table model to create price lists that are assigned to customers in Customer Maintenance; default to new customer schedule orders and RMA Receipt lines; and cannot be specified in global requisitions, purchase orders, blanket purchase orders, or supplier scheduled orders. Price lists can also be created here for use by the Forecast Simulation module in the Detail Forecast Report. Set up these prices in Cust Sched/RMA Rcpt Pricing Menu (1.10.3).
Use Price List Reclassification (1.10.24) to automatically change a supplier price list to a customer scheduled price list and vice versa. You can run the utility in simulation mode to view effects first.

Service price lists are created in Service/Support Management and used for contract pricing and call billing. They are defined and managed entirely within SSM. See QAD Service/Support Management User Guide.
Two Pricing Models illustrates how the system applies the best pricing and list/discount pricing models to various orders.
