Client is on 4.3.17. They use a combination of Price Code and Price Level to set prices for their items. For instance, Price Code A with Price Level 4 equals a cost markup % of 25%. If they change the Markup % in Price Code Maintenance, it does not flow through to the items which are assigned that Price Code/Level combination; the items have to be changed manually. Is this working as designed? Am I missing a utility or button that will force the change through to the items? Tried this in 4.5 as well, and the results are the same. If I change the cost markup percentage on the price code/level, it does not update the markup percentage on the items. One would think that updating the percentage in the setup option would affect the same setting assigned to the item codes themselves. Can anyone shed any light on this? .

Do you mean there are actually item records in the price file, rather than just assigning the price code to the item and letting it work that way? If so, I would say it's working as expected - once you actually create a record for the item, I would assume you want to do somethig different than the standard, so it wouldn't be changed. Kind of like on SO Lines - if you have already changed the Promise Date to something else, changing the date on the header doesn't flow through.

Dump you IM_price table into Excel to see what data is there. I

Doesn't this depend on pricing hierarchy? For example customer specific pricing trumps everything, etc.

Beth hit the nail on the head - price in SO is based on the Item Price Code and Customer Price Level. If the client enters as a price level on the item, it becomes fixed at that percentage. If the item itself has no pricing specified except the Price Code, the pricing in SO Entry pulls up the combination of the price code and customer price level. If I wasn't such a Polack, I might have seen that to begin with. Beth gets a free drink at Jellyrolls next time she's in town.

Ed - we're down the week of May 19th..... :-)

Sounds like there will be a 90 Minds party at Jelly Rolls soon!

Beth - send a reminder before you come down. I'll check the schedule and let you know the best nights to meet. Robert - the more the merrier - it's always a party at JR.

Ed - have it on my calendar to contact you the Monday before we leave.
