8. List Price Fields
Basis is not a valid option for list price; this field is skipped.
Multiplier is not a valid option for list price; this field is skipped.
Change %—Specify the Change % of the suggested list price over current list price for the item(s) selected. Press Enter to default to 0% (zero).

Replace—Indicate whether to replace the existing suggested list price if one already exists for the item(s) selected. Press Enter to default to selected.
10. Standard Price Fields
Basis—Specify the basis to apply the multiplier against to calculate the suggested standard price or press F1-Skip to specify a Change % to calculate the standard price. Options for basis are L—List Price and M—Manual Cost.
Multiplier—Specify the Multiplier to be applied to the basis to calculate standard price or press F1-Skip.
Change %—Specify the Change % to calculate the standard price. If a basis and multiplier were entered in the previous fields, this Change % is skipped.

The following selection prompts (Level 1 Price through Level 6 Price) only display according to what is set in the # Price Levels flag in the IC Static Control Record.
Note: The following restrictions apply to level prices to insure descending level prices if the Require Descending Level Prices flag in the IC Static Control Record is set to Y:
The following table illustrates this more clearly:
Level |
Basis |
Multiplier |
Factor |
1 |
MC |
1.5000 |
1.5000 |
2 |
MC |
1.4000 |
1.4000 |
3 |
L1 |
.9333 |
1.5000 x .9333 = 1.4000 |
Level 3 multiplier cannot be greater than .9333 because the factor will be greater than the level 2 factor.
--> If price level 1 is using a change percentage, all other levels must use a change percentage and the percentage must be equal to or less than the previous level.
--> The value entered in level 1 for the Replace field must be entered in the other levels also.
11. Level Prices 1-6
Basis — Specify the basis to apply the multiplier against to calculate the suggested level price or press F1-Skip to specify a change % to calculate the level price. Options for basis are L—List Price, M—Manual Cost and S—Standard Price. Once this is set for level 1, the only options for basis on levels 2-6 are either what is set for level 1 or a previous level.
Multiplier — Specify the multiplier to be applied to the basis to calculate level price or press F1-Skip.
Change %— Specify the Change % to calculate the level price. If a basis and multiplier were entered in the previous fields, this Change % is skipped.
Commission % — Specify the Commission % for the suggested level price. Press Enter to set the Commission % to the current Commission %. Press F1 to default to No Priority.
Replace—Indicate whether to replace the existing suggested level price if one already exists for the item(s) selected. Press Enter to default to selected.
Note: You cannot access this field for levels 2 - 6 if the Require Descending Level Prices flag in the IC Static Control Record is set to Y because this field will default to whatever you entered in Replace for Level 1 Price for all other price levels.
12. Create Levels
