Any comments on the topic what is more convenient for maintaining sales prices in IFS applications: price list or customer agreement ?
We need to consider domestic sales and foreign sales (direct and via foreign branch).
I see that price list is regardless of the customer while agreement is connected to specific customer. Is it the main difference ?
Price List can be connected to customer price group or to the customer.
In here customer agreements are used in one company and in the second price lists are used. I wonder what are the advantages of each of the way. It seems for me that price lists are more convenient, as I do not have to enter prices for each customer separately. But I need more arguments to convince the sales department here.
Another topic is the need for price update periodically. I need to write some PL/SQL for it but I wonder what should be the source of the data: it could be excel but I prefer the data to be present in IFS e.g. on some price list. The I can use it as source in order to update the other customer agreements or price lists.
