BL40


BL40.1 - Price Base

Use this form to add a price base and assign items to that base, which is
required for the system to perform default pricing.

Item pricing takes place when you enter an item on an invoice or order. Both
the price base and price list are referenced to arrive at item prices. Simply
stated, a price base represents the dollar (or English Pound, or French Franc,
and so on) amount an item's price is based on. Examples of a price base are
list price, suggested retail price, or vendor cost. A price list (which is
assigned to a customer) specifies a percentage, amount per unit, or override
price that is used to modify the price base.

Pricing offers many additional options, including quantity break pricing,
discounting, contracts, and promotions. See the Billing Procedures Manual for
more information on pricing.
