Stock Code Quantity Discounts

You use this program to assign price codes to selected stock items based on the sale of specific quantities of that item.

The quantity discount breaks assigned to a stock item here are applied during processing in the Sales Order Entry program providing that you have configured a pricing method of Quantity discounted for the stock item.

Price codes for Quantity discount breaks are associated with a currency, enabling you to associate the quantity discount with a price code in the customer's own currency.

The Stock Code Quantity Discounts program can also be accessed by selecting the Quantity Discounts option from the Function menu of the Browse on Stock Code Pricing program.

Field Description
Currency Indicate the currency applicable to the price.

You can only use a foreign currency with a foreign currency price code.

This field is only enabled if you selected the option: Foreign currency sales required (Accounts Receivable Setup - General tab).

Quantity

Indicate the quantity of items that you want to link to a specific price code.

These quantity breaks are applied if the stock code has a pricing method of Quantity discounted.

Example: If you enter a Price code A for a quantity of 10 and Price code B for a quantity of 50, it means that Price code A applies to quantities from 1-10 and Price code B applies to quantities of 11-50. There is no price code specified for 51 or more items, which means that the system determines the price code according to the Pricing method.

Price code Indicate the price code that must be used when a specific quantity of the item is sold.

If you entered a foreign currency in the Currency field, then you must enter a foreign currency price code on this field (see Browse on Stock Code Pricing).

[Note]

You cannot assign either a full stop or exclamation mark (. or !) as price code entries. The reason for this is that both characters have specific applications within the system (i.e. the full stop is reserved for manual price entry and the exclamation mark is reserved for contract price entry).

Price This displays the price applicable to the price code.
