The optional Special Pricing Overview module of EBMS is used primarily to manufacture products or create assemblies to distribute or sell. The amount of inventory items are increased using the manufacturing process rather than by purchasing items through an expense invoice. This module should be used in the following situations:
The Special Pricing module is an optional module that is used to create discounts and special pricing for customers. The module can be used to create the following price exceptions:
Entering promotional pricing for a product or group of products based on a range of dates. Example: The hardware product group may be discounted at 10% for the month of March. Review the Promotional Prices based on Date section for more details on promotional pricing.
A product or group of products is discounted if the customer purchases a volume of the product on a single line of the invoice. Example: John Doe receives a discounted price if he buys more than 50 rakes on a single invoice or if John purchases over $1000 of rakes on the same invoice. Review the Volume Discounts and Bracketed Pricing section for more details on bracketed pricing.
A price level may be set for a specific customer for all items or a specific group of products. Example: A customer (John Doe) may get the wholesale level a pricing for everything but the garden supplies group. John Doe will be given the wholesale level B for the garden supplies because of the volume of product purchased by John Doe. Review the Special Pricing for Customers section for more details on customer special pricing.
The standard price level feature of EBMS should be used as the main pricing structure for a customer. Review the Inventory Pricing Overview section to review the standard pricing options before implementing the special pricing features in this section. The Special Pricing module is an optional module. Contact an EBMS software representative for purchase information if the optional module is required.
