Price Tolerance

Price Tolerance holds, for one company, a list of unit price tolerance percentages: per item or item tolerance group, and per vendor or vendor tolerance group. The percentages are stored only. No invoice or order is checked against them today.

Scenarios​

  • A client wants a 2 percent price tolerance per supplier. Not supported. The table can be filled, but nothing checks invoices against it.

What it is connected to​

If something looks wrong​

  • With Vendor Base On set to Vendor, the Vendor Relation lookup lists items. The lookup is wired to the item list. Use Vendor Tolerance Group instead.
