Period and Volume Discounts

It is unfortunate that Period and Volume discounts are not currently supported.
I have a situation where a customer is using this functionality :currently there are around 2500 customers and 1500 prices with single discounted quantity breaks.
In B1 the quantity breaks are handled in the standard way and I would not want to set up individual special prices in B1 for each customer and synch.
How then to handle this online ?
I assume using SQL to insert some 3 million records into the PartsPricing table is possible but I don't know how practical this is or whether it would affect performance.
Is there perhaps a more practical alternative using some code which runs when the calculate button is clicked ? This would have to combine the Customer the part and an integer representing the quantity break and a discount %.
Any ideas would be appreciated

I thought that this was supported in this version? (sp1p1). I haven't tested yet, but I had hoped to turn off my work around.
The work around involves populating the partspricing table with qtybreak records for each item & price list that has a qtybreak setup. We do not have that many, and currently there are only about 573 records (no. items with qtybreaks x no. breaks x no. pricelists). I do this using an SSIS package that runs each night. I also had to add a trigger on the PartsPricingMaster to make sure that the SpecialCalcType stayed as B, for some reason Webtools overwrites this value each sync, which prevented the qtybreaks from working.
Far from ideal, but it worked. However, I have not yet tested the current version to see what changes have been made in relation to this.
Hope that helps.
Also, I have the sql for the select query if you need it.

  • Inventory Price Lists Period and Volume Discounts

    Hi all
    Is it possible to mass import Inventory Price Lists Period and Volume Discounts for all Items?
    Kedalene Chong

    Hi,
    To get correct result, you need to split your existing records in maximum of 1000 records per import. If more than that, you may get incorrect update.
    Please check SAP note for updating price list:

  • Period and volume discounts but do not show discount%

    HI,
    Customer is using 2007A PL49. They are heavily using tier pricing(Period and volume discounts) in SAP. They do not want system to display discount % in sales document but displaying price after discount in period and volume discounts as unit price in sales document instead. The Discount% in sales document will be used as second level discount.
    Any workaround to solve this problem?
    Regards
    Thomas

    Customer wants the price after discount in period and volume display in AR Invoice as unit price(before discount) and make the original discount% in AR Invoice line as second level discount.
    Eg in period and volume discounts
    Qty     Discount      Unit price after discount
    1                             RM100
    10                           RM90
    Customer wants RM90 appears as unit price(price before discount) in AR Invoice line. The price difference in volume is not considered as discount for this customer.
    Any workaround to tackle this customer?
    Regards

  • Update pricelist and volume discount

    Hi Experts,
    I want to update an existing pricelist with date and volume discount. Now i use the same xls as i used on first import but i get the error message in DTW.
    Invalid value in Quantity field - apllication defined error.
    I have 3 files.
    1 file with prices
    1 file with date
    1 file with only volume discount (not discount 1 piece)
    What could be the problem? Maybe i need linenum because it is an update. I have no data in linenum
    Thx
    Mark

    Hi Gordon,
    No Quantity is also there. I believe the problem is that it is an existing pricelist which i want to update.
    Do i need linenum on the files? and on all 3 files pricelist, date and volume discount?
    thx

  • IStore App promotional, customer and volume discounts!!!

    Is there a way for app provider to give a discount to previous customers of their products? This is often done in non iStore world where app provider provide upgrade discounts or promotional discounts to previous customers. I don't see this capability to include a PROMOTIONAL CODE similar to car rentals, etc.
    Does anyone know if this is possible? If not does anyone think we should be asking for this as an enhancement?

    So you think it is a good idea?
    Perhaps they could have an enhancement that sets a flag for developers that identifies if a buyer has one of sellers products. This does not give out any info, but could allow for the discount..
    I think as the iStore is enhanced further over the next couple of years, Apple might do something like this if there was enough interest. What do you think? Impossible or potential??
    If it can make Apple more money, and helps their developers sell substantially more product and develop more marketshare maybe they may be interested.

  • How to implement volume discounts in Business One

    Hi, All
    Volume discounts are part of the Business One application price list. How to implement these volume discounts in Business One?
    For example:
    If the value of sold B1 licenses more than 15 000 Euro, the customer gets 10 % discount. If the value of B1 licenses more than 23 000 Eur the customer gets 20 % discount.
    The problem is: a sales quotation contains in additional to B1 licenses also services (System customizing, Data migration etc.). The services should not be considered by the discount calculation.So the volume discount should be calculated based of the document subtotal (licenses total).
    Best Regards,
    Inna Baskina

    Hi Inna,
    as you see discount normally based on articles. For single items you use
    Stock Management -> Price Lists -> Period and Volume Discount
    But if you have a cupple of items you need to calculate it manually alternative by a FMS. You could insert a FMS into the discount field.

  • Copy of Volume Discount

    There is a feature that allows the copy of Volume discounts to all other Items displayed in the Volume Discount window.
    I make the required change to the DIscount Percent or Dicount Price, and the Click the Update button.  I select the radial button to update all Items in the Window.  There are between 20 and 30 items only 1 price list,  but it takes maybe and hour to update.
    Is this normal to tak so long?  I could manually update the Items in just a few minutes .
    Did I possibly do something incorectly?  The Items did update correctly but I would have expected it to take less than a minute
    Any Ideas?
    Thanks in advance
    Dana

    Gordon
    I selected a Price List in the Period and Volume Discounts,  then used the filtering to only display the 30 items that where to have the price changed.  These Items where diplayed in there own grid.  When I clicked the Update button on the bottom of the Grid with the 30 items, I guess it checked All the Items in the Price List grid, but updates only the 30 items in the grid.
    I guess this would explain why it took so long to update the items.  Am I missing something when I select the price list?  Is there a way to select only part of a price list in th einitial grid?
    Thanks for you help!!

  • Volume Discount on Different Products

    Ok, this might be a bit complex, but I would appreciate if someone can come up with a solution as we are running out of time.
    We have a catalogue with a set of products
    Let say Product A, Product B and Product C
    each product has different sizes, so we created:
    Product A - Size 1, Product A - Size 2 and so forth for each product and group them (As we know we're still waiting for the Inventory over Attributes, this way we can still control the inventory).
    However, the client is offering a discount when you purchase 3 or more. Now, the Volume discount works fine if you get 3 of the same Product. But the question was can the Volume Discount be applied when they select 3 from any of those products.
    Which means, when a customer select Product A, Product B and Product C, then the Volume Discount applies.
    I'm not sure if someone has a a quick solution for this, even if it's a JS code or something to get us rolling.
    Thanks.

    Once you have items in the cart there is no way to manipulate the price through JavaScript. We have tried manipulating discount codes but only a manual entry is successfully processed.
    The only thing I can think of is offering a product that is considered all three as a set with a price and volume discounts reflected too.
    Anything in regard to multiple item discoutns based on anything other then a discount code or voucher is something BC has literally no support for at this time.
    You will need to get the client to think of a new approach offering a discount code or voucher.
    What you can do is use the shipping capture one a product and if the 3 items are added this comes rough the invoice and workflow. This will notify the site owners to send out a discount code or voucher.
    Few other ideas on a more automated but never tried them setting values that forms a code which had already been set as well.

  • Volume discount for whole month

    Hello sir's
    I am having one querry,
    i maintain the time dependent condition Volume discount (zvls),
    For EX:
    I want to calculate the zvls for aspecific period,
    suppose i created 10 nos of purchase order, post a GR and also settled the payment for that vendor in 1 month period,
    now my purchased quantity is reaced 500 Kg and i set a discount quantity based
    Qty       Disc
    100       20 Rs
    200       22 Rs
    500       25 Rs
    Now i want to take the discount from vendor,
    what i suggest that its only possible only in credit memo against that vendor with all other values taken manually.
    But they want to pick the condition for whole month automatically and calculate the discount for quantity for that period.
    plz suggest.

    Hi,
    I had also once faced with the same problem but i am unable to provide a solution to my client. Instead if you  configure the rebate agreement settings and process a rebate agreement for the same to avail the discount.
    Also you can have multiple line items of the same material in the PO with the varying price. But this is quite manual and tedious too.

  • Is there a way to enable & configure Volume Discounts via the Product Import Spreadsheet? Is there a way to enable more than 2 Quantity Thresholds?

    Is there a way to enable & configure Volume Discounts via the Product Import Spreadsheet? Is there a way to enable more than 2 Quantity Thresholds?

    Hi Michael,
    You can set the thresholds via an import file. The easiest way to do this (and this goes for all importable data, webapps included, 301 redirects and so on) is this:
    1. go into the Admin and create a single item, in you case create a test product and set the thresholds
    2. export that data - in your case export the product list
    3. take a look at how the data looks like in the export file so you can get an idea of how the format should be like in the import file
    Unfortunately you cannot set more than 2 thresholds, that is not possible at the moment.
    Thanks,
    Mihai

    There used to be a discount, if you ordered more then 10 books at once, but I see it no longer listed on the "Options and Prices"-Page http://www.apple.com/aperture/resources/print-products.html, maybe that differs between countries, see also this post by Niel: Re: Reductions for bulk orders?
