Deal Methods

Deal methods are the pricing strategies used in contracts, and are applied to products according to the deal scope selected.

 

ID Deal Method Definition
-2 (Swap to alternative)  
-1 (Prevent sale) Products can not be sold to the customer.
0 Fixed Price Contract price does not change for the life of the contract.
1 % Discount (from Retail) Contract price = (1 - Discount/100) × Retail
2 % Discount (from Sell Price) Contract price = (1 - Discount/100) × Sell
10 % Margin (From Last Cost)

Contract price = Last cost / (100 - Margin) / 100
or if last cost isn’t set:
Contract price = Item cost / (100 - Margin) / 100

11 % Margin (From Fixed Cost) Contract price = Item cost / (100 - Margin) / 100
12 % Margin (from Lead Item Cost) Contract price = Lead item cost / (100 - Margin) / 100
13 % Margin (from Supplier Item Cost)

Contract price = Default Supplier Item Cost / (100 - Margin) / 100

14 % Margin (from Highest Cost) Contract price = Highest cost / (100 - Margin) / 100
Highest cost is set on the Stock Card, by importing a terms file, or by updating the cost on a product's highest cost item.

Note: Min% Margin deal methods can only be used in conjunction with another deal method. A minimum margin deal takes precedence regardless of how any other contracts are in place below the margin you want to protect.
