Editing Price Period Details

A price period indicates the date that a quoted unit price becomes effective.

The owner/co-owners for a quotation can enter multiple price periods for a quotation line item. Price periods let you quote reduced prices for longer lead times. Your system may be set up so you can also quote increased prices for price periods.


Before you begin: View the list of quotation line items. See Managing Quotation Line Items.

Enter an effectivity date (see Editing Quotation Line Items) for the line item.

  1. Click the number in the Price Periods column for the needed item.

    Price Period Details

    For each price period, this page lists these details:

    Price Period. The price period number.

    % Change (+/-). The amount of change from the prior price period.

    Price. The price for this period.

    Effective Date. The date this price period becomes effective.

  2. Use the page Actions menu or toolbar to work with the price periods:

    Add Price Period. Adds a row for a new price period; enter the details for all columns (use the calendar tool to set an effective date). You can enter either the change percent (do not enter the % symbol), or the price; Quotation Central calculates the other field.

    To enter a negative value, use the "-" symbol; you do not need to enter the + symbol for price increases. Your system may not be set up for increased price periods.

    Note: All price data is assumed to be the quoted currency given for the line item.

    Delete Selected. Deletes selected periods; click OK to confirm. You cannot delete the first price period.

  3. Edit any values in any row as needed.

  4. Click Done.
