Overview

Excerpt

Product Price Reminder works by storing the last price manually entered for a certain product, and applying it to the product being confirmed within the Staging Area.

Once the items arrive in the Staging Area, the system will look for the last price that was manually applied to any product and, if a previous price for a product was not stored, the system will suggest a price based on the financial settings. In case changes to the price of a particular product within the inventory have been applied, the system will use this price next time the product enters the staging area, as long as the price was updated on or before the "Max-Age" value.

How does this work in the system?

Let's say that today is 11/15 We set up the Truck Days after on 5 days. We create a PO for future sales with a truck date of 11/19 and was already confirmed by the vendor. This PO will be valid from 11/19/2016 until 11/24.  We set up 5 days for On Hand Override and enter the price of a product that accomplishes with the aging entered in the Max Age for Price to be Stored.

Since

the On

the On Hand Override will be valid until the 11/20 and the PO item is valid from the 11/19 until the 11/24, the system will use the On Hand Inventory price for the products coming from this PO the days 11/19 and 11/20. 

Let's see the diagram below:
