DTW price list import

I have a list of 4 different price lists that correspond to the items in an import I am working on.
There is no predictable factoring ratio to use and I'm wondering if there is a way to import them as special prices? How would I go about importing 4 different price lists into B1.
Thanks!
Mike

Hey Gordon,
I figured it out on my own. Took a little while but I got it working for multiple price lists and got the customers linked to the proper price list.
I didn't figure out how to set baseline price though. I tried using line 0 but it didn't work. Other than that I'm sorted though, thanks for the response!

DTW price lists

Hello everyone,
I know there are some threats about this topic, but I am still a little confused, as those threats all seem to be importing/updating prices based on items rather than business partners.
My scenario is that ... for example
3 suppliers S1, S2, S3 ..., they got overlapped items on their price lists.
S1: Item001 £1
      Item002 £2
      Item003 £3
S2: Item003 £3.01
      Item004 £4
      item005 £5
      item006 £6
S3: Item003 $10
      Item004 $11
      Item006 $12
      Item007 £9
I have used price list template to create 3 lists (around 200 in reality), namely S1,S2,S3 .. . So now how can I put corresponding items with prices on the price lists through DTW?
Supposingly, I should then use the templates -- item and item_prices.
The data I got are a list per supplier, so how can I link one item to multiple suppliers?
Hope you understand what I mean ...

Hello Y,
Here is a sample of the DTW import files.
SpecialPrices.csv:
RecordKey,ItemCode,CardCode,AutoUpdate,Currency,DiscountPercent,Price,PriceListNum
RecordKey,ItemCode,CardCode,AutoUpdate,Currency,DiscountPercent,Price,PriceListNum
1,A1012,C1001,tYES,,5,,1
SpecialPricesDataAreas.csv:
RecordKey,LineNum,AutoUpdate,DateFrom,Dateto,Discount,PriceCurrency,PriceListNo,SpecialPrice
RecordKey,LineNum,AutoUpdate,DateFrom,Dateto,Discount,PriceCurrency,PriceListNo,SpecialPrice
1,,,20080101,20081212,5,,1,
1,,,20081213,20081225,0,,1,
1,,,20081226,20081231,15,,1,
SpecialPricesQuantityAreas.csv:
RecordKey,LineNum,Discountin,PriceCurrency,Quantity,SpecialPrice,SPDARowNumber
RecordKey,LineNum,Discountin,PriceCurrency,Quantity,SpecialPrice,SPDARowNumber
1,,2,,100,,1
1,,4,,200,,1
This will work in SAP Business One 2007 but not in 2005. SpecialPricesQuantityAreas -> SPDARowNumber is not exposed in SAP Business One 2005.

Price list changed

I have a customer on 2005 who is having a problem with one price list. The price list is based on another base price list. Manual is ticked in the price list for all items, however the item prices on that price list are changing daily and we don't know why.
I have tested this and the price should only change if manual is deselected(before or after) or if the price is changed on the item master. If the price is changed on the item master, it shows up on the change log as changed field 'price List'.
The customer says they have not deselected manual at any time and the item master data change log does not show any price change on item master data.
Any ideas how this could be happening?

Hi,
 
I might be a bit late contributing to this, but I have found a bug in relation to manual selection within price lists and price updates/imports.
 
Some of our price lists represent contracts where the price for certain items is set in stone. We do this by ticking the manual checkbox and entering in the price. These price lists have a parent price list as this is the easiest way to manage the price on those items no on contract. Some contract price lists also have a % discount on these non-contract items, achieved using the price list factor.
 
For a year or so (or even longer) we have suspected that changes were being made some items on contracts, and the manual checkbox being unticked. I put this down to user error and limited access to the contract price lists to only one user. Still the problem persisted. 
Using the query above with a few minor changes showed me the last time the price was changed that the item still had the manual checkbox ticked for the item in question on the contract price list:
 
Select T2.Itemcode ,T2.PriceList ,T2.Price as 'CurrentPrice', T2.ovrwritten as 'Current Status',
T1.Price as 'Old Price', t1.ovrwritten as 'Old Status', T0.UpdateDate,T0.UserSign ; from AITM T0 Inner Join AIT1 T1
on T0.Itemcode =T1.Itemcode and T1.Loginstanc =T0.loginstanc inner Join ITM1 t2
on T2.ItemCode= T0.ItemCode
where t0.itemcode = '07041' and t2.pricelist = 13
 
Checking in the price list showed that it was no longer ticked.
 
The last price update has been done via Import/Excel - import from excel, nothing to do with the price list in question or its parent price list.
 
However, on my laptop/test system I ran the same price list import/update, before the manual box for the item was ticked, afterwards it was not.
 
Very strange, and raised the question, why didnt it do this for all items on the import, and for all other contracts?.
 
Further investigation showed that although the manual checkbox had been unticked, that the price remained the same. It just so happened that the previous manual price was the same as the parent price less the child price list factor, which in this case is 5%, i.e.:
 
Original manual Child PL price = u20AC35.65
Parent PL = u20AC37.53
Child PL factor = 0.95
36.53 x 0.95 = 35.63
 
It would seem that for some reason SAP removes the manual tick from a child price list if it see's no difference between the child manual price and the parent price less the child price list factor. Which is strange and dangerous behavior.
 
Now whether or not this happens on any other method of updating prices, I do not know, I have only tested the one method so far. To prove a point, I re-ticked the items manual checkbox in the child price list, altered the price slightly in the parent price list, and reran the update. This time the item child price remained as manual, this is because the parent price - the child factor was now different to the manual price in the child price list.
 
I'm not sure where to go on this now, we do plan on upgrading towards the end of this year, which leaves me with a problem in the interim. Perhaps I might capture the oncontract status of items and generate and alert when this changes, or something similiar.
 
Anyway, I hope this might help others who suspect something is not quite right with manually entered prices in 2005 (our version is actually 2005A SP1 PL36).
 
Martin.

Hi,
I think it is caused by your record key data. it must not be 001 but it shoud be 1, 2, 3, etc.
I am sure you put the symbol ' near the zero. it is probably '001. '002, etc. this is not the requirement but it must be 1, 2, 3.etc.
Let me know if you still find error although you have change the record key to be 1, 2, 3, etc.

Pricelist Export/Import
Price List Export Files
When exporting files from Excel to use as imports for update ensure that there is no header and there are only columns Item No./Pricelist/Price and Currency. The Currency should comply with the standard SAP currency codes (GBP/USD/EUR, etc.). Save the file as type Text (Tab delimited). Use this file as per Importing Pricelists above.
Exporting Price Lists for update
Use this script:
SELECT T0.[ItemCode], T0.[PriceList], T0.[Price], T0.[Currency] FROM ITM1 T0 where t0.pricelist = '[%0]'
Select the Price List NUMBER at the prompt. Send this to XL. In XL, amend the columns Price and Currency as required. Depending on the Pricelist which is to be updated amend the column Pricelist to the NUMBER of the Pricelist as defined in the leftmost column on the Pricelist screen (Stock management/Price Lists/Price Lists.
If updating the same Price List as that exported the column Pricelist should already be populated with the correct number.

How to upload price for a item in price list using DTW ?

hi all,
How to upload prices of all the items in price list using DTW ?
What are templates used for it ?
Item masters were already created.
Jeyakanthan

Hi
Create two Excel templates 'Items.xls' and 'Items_Prices.xls'
Since you have already imported items, just have the record key and item code alone in the 'Items.xls' . For example:
RecordKey.......ItemCode
1.......................I0001
2.......................I0002
In the Items_Prices template, Fill Pricelist Number fromOPLN and Price of the Item
RecordKey....LineNum......Price
1......................1..............350.00   (Means for Item I001, Pricelist 1 is updated with 350)
1......................2..............300.00   (Means for Item I001, Pricelist 2 is updated with 300)
2......................1..............550.00   (Means for Item I002, Pricelist 1 is updated with 550)
2......................2..............600.00    (Means for Item I002, Pricelist 2 is updated with 600)
In step 4 of DTW, Choose
Check - Update Exisiting Object
Uncheck - Import New Object
This should update the pricelist alone for the items

Item Price Import Price List wise

Dear All,
How do we import Item price, price list wise in DTW.?
Is there any specific template..?
Thanks in Advance
Regards.
Aditya

This is relatively simple to do.
If you go into the oItems DTW directory containing all the Item templates, you will need to use 2 spreadsheets, Items.xlt and ItemPrices.xlt.
In the Items template you will need to populate the Record Key column and Item Code column.
In the ItemPrices template you will need to put the record key relating to the item code in the items template mentioned above. The LineNum specifies the Price List number (0 as linenum means price list 1 in SAP, 1 is Price list 2 etc so you will need to know the price list number in SAP and subtract 1). Enter a currency symbol if the price is in a different currency to your local currency. Enter a price in the price column and please format it so you don't have thousand seperators as this can cause problems when importing.
When running the DTW wizard, choose to update existing records rather than to create new items.
I would suggest you test this by updating a handfull of records first in a test company, as if you are updating many records it can take a while.

Adrian

DTW - selecting a Price List in a Goods Receipt PO

Hi
I am looking to use a Price List with my import of a Goods Receipt PO but am unsure what field name to use?
Thanks
Ian

Hi Ian........
There is no such field for Price List in GRPO Template but if you want it to be picked up while import you have to set the same in Business Partner Master data either manually or by DTW update and then try importing GRPO.
Hope this will solve your problem..........

Update Price List by DTW ODBC Connection

Hi Experts,
I wondered if there was a way to update a Price List in SAP by DTW ODBC connection please? I have two databases with exactly the same Price Lists, apart from I need to update one price list in one of the databases with the inforamtion as a Price List in another SAP database on the same server. The price list is called C60000 and is the 7th Price list (therefore number 6) and this is the Query I was using:
SELECT T1.[ItemCode], T1.[Price] FROM OPLN T0 INNER JOIN ITM1 T1 ON T0.ListNum = T1.PriceList WHERE T1.[PriceList] = '6'
The Query shows correctly in STEP 4 of DTW when I click on Import in the last Step nothing really seems to happen...
Many many thanks for all your help.
Caroline

HI Gordon,
Thanks for your fast reply!
I guess it's ITM1 I need to update... the actual prices in the Price List.
Thanks,

Slow in updating price lists using import from excel

Hello,
I am concerned about the slow process of updating prices in SAP using import from excel. It took me hours to complete the upload for 3700 item rows and 2 price lists. It is also slow in adding warehouses. I am not sure if the account segmentation has something to do with it but it never happened to my other databases where there is no account segmentation. Other than this, SAP is running real fast on the server.
How could this be? Thank you and regards.
Derrick

Yes vijay, There is query params in step 2 of DTW.
2 week before only we have updated to SAP B1 2005B PL41,
but i'm not sure whether DTW is updated to latest version or not ?
Current DTW version is 2005.0.15 & API version is 6.80.320.
What is procedure to update DTW ?

Using DTW to update price lists with ITM1 template

I'm trying to update prices in a price list using the ITM1 DTW template, but I continue to get an error: This entry already exists in the following tables (ODBC - 2035) Application-defined or object-defined eror65171.
Any suggestions?
Thank you,
Avraham

Hi Caroline,
AtcEntry is correct for the document, this relates to the AbsEntry in OATC, which then in turn links to AbsEntry in ATC1.
There are a few fields that need to be populated in ATC1:
AbsEntry
Line - To be used if more than 1 Attachment
SrcPath - for the file path
Filename - for the file name
FileExt - for file type - i.e. .pdf
You may be able to configure DTW to import these as a manually created DTW but I suspect that OATC and ATC1 are not open to the Di which will stop it. Coincidently I have been looking at Task Centre to update these but have encountered the same problem

Error in QP: Bulk Import of Price List

Hi All,
I am trying to import price list records using the concurrent program 'QP: Bulk Import of Price List'. I am facing one issue in this...below is the error detail:
7164262/PRL/QP_INTERFACE_LIST_LINES//RAGH-L-3 A price break child line must have at least one pricing attribute.
The header and Qualifier records are getting imported sucessfully, the issue is with the line and it's attributes. Below are the fields on interface tables whcih i m populating:
INSERT INTO QP_INTERFACE_LIST_LINES (

Using the above process I am getting the error as mentioned:"7164262/PRL/QP_INTERFACE_LIST_LINES//RAGH-L-3 A price break child line must have at least one pricing attribute.".
If I am not using the pricing attributes PRICING_ATTRIBUTE_CONTEXT,PRICING_ATTR_CODE, Pricing_attr_value_from,COMPARISON_OPERATOR_CODE, PRICING_ATTR_VALUE_TO I am able to import the line records also.
The script provided by Oracle also uses the same columns in the interface table, kindly help me if any one have any idea regarding this issue.

Hi Luko,
I tried the same script given by oracle, but it is giving me the error as I mentioned earlier. When I am not using the pricing line attributes, it is working fine. The error is coming only when I am passing the pricing attribute parameter(PRICING_ATTRIBUTE_CONTEXT, PRICING_ATTR_CODE, PRICING_ATTR_VALUE_FROM_DISP,
COMPARISON_OPERATOR_CODE, PRICING_ATTR_VALUE_TO_DISP).
I am passing the values as shown below:
PRICING_ATTRIBUTE_CONTEXT-Code fro pricing context i.e PRICING ATTRIBUTE
PRICING_ATTR_CODE-code for attribute i.e. FREIGHT_COST
PRICING_ATTR_VALUE_FROM_DISP-200
PRICING_ATTR_VALUE_TO_DISP-300
COMPARISON_OPERATOR_CODE-BETWEEN
Thanks!

How to use QPXVBLK: QP: Bulk Import of Price List?

hi,
i'm trying to create a script for import price lists. i've read that this concurrent program "QPXVBLK: QP: Bulk Import of Price List" is what i need. i've been able to successfully create the script to populate the interface tables:
QP_INTERFACE_LIST_HEADERS
QP_INTERFACE_LIST_LINES
QO_INTERFACE_PRICING_ATTRIBS
but i'm getting an error.
3436374/PRL/QP_INTERFACE_LIST_HEADERS/24934 Cannot perform Insert, as record with orig_sys_header_ref 24934 already exists for the list_source_code .
i figured it has something to do with the ORIG_SYS_HEADER_REF, ORIG_SYS_LINE_REF and ORIG_SYS_PRICING_ATTR_REF columns.
below are values i'm currently passing.
QP_INTERFACE_LIST_HEADERS TABLE
- ORIG_SYSTEM_HEADER_REF = LIST_HEADER_ID
QP_INTERFACE_LIST_LINES TABLE
- ORIG_SYS_LINE_REF = LIST_LINE_ID
- ORIG_SYS_HEADER_REF = LIST_HEADER_ID of parent record in QP_INTERFACE_LIST_HEADERS TABLE
QP_INTERFACE_PRICING_ATTRIBS TABLE
- ORIG_PRICING_ATTR_REF = PRICING_ATTRIBUTE_ID
- ORIG_SYS_LINE_REF = LIST_LINE_ID of parent record in QP_INTERFACE_LIST_LINES TABLE
- ORIG_SYS_HEADER_REF = LIST_HEADER_ID of parent record in QP_INTERFACE_LIST_HEADERS TABLE
if these are not correct, what values should be passed on this columns?
thanks
allen

hi all,
ii would like to add a follow up question on this.
what fields are required when inserting records into the interface tables for the QP: Bulk Import of Price List?
i've been running some tests and while some price lists are imported with no issues, some are not and some only partial. i'm not receiving any errors on the import which makes this harder for me to debug.
any thoughts?
thanks.
