Setting Up a Price for a Specific Customer

To set up a new pricing matrix, follow these steps:

NOTE: For this example we will set up a new pricing rule for a specific customer and item.

STEP 1: In the Setup menu on the left side of the screen, use the drop down to select which type of pricing matrix you want to create:

GG >> Grp-Grp: Pricing for a customer group based on the item group
GI >> Grp-Item: Pricing based on the customer group based on a specific item
EG >> Ent-Group: Pricing for a specific customer based on the item group
EI >> Ent-Item: Pricing for a specific customer based on a specific item

STEP 2: Depending on the pricing matrix selected, enter wither the Customer's Price Group or Name 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.

STEP 4: Tab down to Factor Type field and enter the pricing rules. The remaining fields are described below. Click Save when finished.

Setting Up a New Customer Group

STEP 1: Set up a new pricing group in the following rule in Rule Maintenance. (If you need help adding rules, please contact your ABIS consultant.)

STEP 2: Link the Sold To record to the new pricing group for the desired customers.

STEP 3:In the Setup section on the left of the screen, select one of the following:

         •GG>Grp-Grp:   Customer Pricing Code and Item Price Group

         •GG>Grp-Item:  Customer Pricing Code and Item

STEP 4: Select the Add button to add a new entry. Enter the pricing code you set up in step 1 in the Ent Code/Name field and the Item code or Item Price Group in the Item Code/Name field.

STEP 5: Tab down to Factor Type field and enter the pricing rules. The remaining fields are described below. Fill out the desired entries and save the record. The example image represents a setup where 'COSTPLUS' customers receive a 55% discount on items with the ACCESSORY Item Price Group. Click Save when finished.

STEP 6: 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.
