Manually change sales price and/or discount

Article09/20/20233 min read

Not in all cases, the prices that are suggested by the Advanced Pricing logic are correct in the eyes of the person registering the transaction. Setup can be missing, or a salesperson may want to deviate from general pricing to satisfy a customer in the trading process for example. Therefore, it is possible to overrule/change the prices that are suggested by the system.

When manually changing the price or discount, recalculation factors are altered, and the applied sales price line/discount line is identified as manually specified. The price and discount will be frozen, i.e., they will not automatically change anymore when, for example the order quantity or UoM in the sales price line is adjusted.
