Field help (PLITYP)

The Price list type field defines the price list rule. The different values for this field are:

• Standard: this price list defines a group of conditions valuated on the line, according to the conditions linked to the context (supplier or customer, order header...),
• Grouped: this price list is used to assign specific conditions for a group of lines, according to the conditions linked to the context (supplier or customer, order header...), The processing of the grouped price list calculation can be automatic or suggested upon order creation or modification. This depends on the value of the PURGRUDIS purchase or GRPPRI sales setup.
  The grouped price list, if it is applied, does not take into account the standard price list priority rules or the initialization made by them (on the other hand the priority rules are applied between grouped price lists). As a principle, it applies the amount and/or the discounts/charges most favorable to the buyer. In this way, for the same order line, the gross price can come from a Standard price list record, the discounts and charges from the Grouped price list record, always the most favorable for the buyer.
  The grouped conditions are processed at the end of the entry of the order or invoice lines,
• Block: the criteria for this price list determine the sales prohibition conditions applied to a product. This price list is called upon entry of the product reference.
• Component: the BOM's reference must be a part of the criteria.
  When setting up the rules to determine the price of products in the sales BOMs (price of components, options or variants in sales kits), the code of the kit will be entered (PNTITMREF in the SPRICLINK table), in addition to the price list application criteria (applied to the kit components). If this field is not specified in the setup, the component prices will be valid for all the BOMs where they are used. These prices associated with each component line, help to value all the BOM in the document.
