Infor LX/BPCS Tips & Tricks for FINANCE: Archive Net Price for Deleted Lines

George Moroses 0 0 Article rating: No rating

Infor LX now stores the Net Price for a deleted line, so that the information is available for later analysis.

If an order line is canceled, LX stores the current Net Price in a new Net Price Archive field. The Net Price Archive field is updated whether the line is deleted through Line Entry (ORD700D2) or Fast Line Entry (ORD700DA), or the entire transaction is deleted through Order, Quote or RMA Directory (ORD700D1).

The Net Price Archive field can be useful when analyzing the reasons for canceled order lines. Users can define Cancellation Reason Codes related to pricing. Review of the archived Net Price, along with other values from canceled order lines such as Order Quantity and Selling Unit of Measure, Cancellation Reason Code, Request Date, Price Book Date, Item Number and Customer Number, can lead to adjustments to pricing structures, promotion qualifiers or other actions that can avoid loss of revenue on future orders, or follow-up actions to recover the canceled line.

Use this session to define simulated purchase prices for purchased items per site.

Field Information:

  • Cost Calculation Code - price calculation code

  • Subcontracting services
  • List items (menus/options)
     
  • ​Site - The site for which the purchase price is simulated.
  • Purchase Currency - The currency of the simulated purchase price.

Note: The cost component specified in this field does not become part of the standard cost detail structure if it is part of the cost component scheme of the selected item. If calculations are performed with a calculation code not used for actualization (simulations only), the simulated purchase price is mapped to the cost component defined in the records for this session.
