'''STEP 1:'''  In the Filter section on the bottom half of the screen, select which type of pricing matrix you want to create:

          &bull;GG>Ent-Grp:    Customer and Item Price Group

          &bull;EI>Ent-Item:     Customer and Item

'''STEP 2:'''  Enter the Customer's Price Group in the '''Ent Code/Name''' field and the Item code or Item Price Group in the '''Item Code/Name''' field.

'''STEP 3:'''  Click the '''Refresh'''  button to see all current pricing rules set up for your Customer-Item matrix. A blank grid means there are no pricing rules set up yet.

===Fields/Filters===

'''Factor Type:'''  This determines what the markup will be based upon (dollars, percentage, or fixed price).

'''Origin:'''  Select whether the factor will be based on the '''Cost''' (the base cost) or '''Price''' (the list/retail price).

'''Factor:'''  Enter the percentage/amount that will be marked up or discounted.

'''For a discount, enter a negative symbol (-) before the number.'''

'''Unit:'''  Select the unit of measure that should be used.  This is normally going to be the item's sell unit.

'''Stock Status:'''  Select the stock status of the item (Stock, Non-Stock, Both).

'''Rate Code:'''  Enter the billing rate used for this item. 

'''Starting Qty:'''  The minimum quantity for this pricing rule.

'''Ending Qty:'''  The maximum quantity for this pricing rule.

'''Sale:'''  Check this box if your pricing rule is only a promotion for a valid date range.  Sales are looked at first in the pricing program and will override other pricing rules (other than a customer's contract). 

'''Starting/Ending Date:'''  Enter the start and ending date of the promotion/sale.
