65.0. "Price type code = 'V', what does it mean?" by ELIS::HOOG (On error then RTFM) Mon Feb 06 1995 11:14

    When running the TPAS demosite program we came across a funny
    situation. A certain transaction returned PRICE TYPE CODE: 'V', but
    this price type code 'V' isn't mentioned anywhere in the documentation
    (at least we can't find it).

    Could you explain what price type code 'V' means, when it is used
    etcetera?

Thanks,
    Andr�

    By the way, after the page-break follows the output of the demosite
    program. It seems relevant in this case that the supplied order MLP is
    zero, therefore I have also added the result of this same transaction
    if a non-zero MLP is used.

>>   Price type code = 'V', what does it mean? 

	This was a change in V3.1. Look at 66.2, Eric's list of
	Price Type Codes and you will see ...Q,R,S,T... Well S was
	already a designated code for STANDARD COST + UPLIFT
	So this was changed to ...Q,R,V,T...
	Look in the TPAS_II_USER Documentation that was delivered 
	with TPAS V3.1, the code is in there. The TPAS_II_LOGIC_FLOW
	is much easier to follow (I think) and has also been updated
	to TPAS II V3.1


	*** Eric - Change your table ***

	So to explain you two examples:

    Example 1:
	Part: VT18X-AC  From: 610	To: 2404   Order MLP = 0

	Should be priced using NOR:  Price Type Code = 'N'
					Transfer Price  = NOR - NOR_Discount

		But the NOR = 0 AND order MLP = 0 so:
				     Price Type Code = 'I' 
					Transfer Price  = Corp MLP - MLP_Dscnt

	        But Trsnfr Price < Std AND Below STD COST SW = 'N' so:
			     	     Price Type Code = 'V' 
					Transfer Price  = Std Cost + Uplift


    Example 2:
	Part: VT18X-AC  From: 610	To: 2404   Order MLP = 222.222
	Should be priced using NOR:  Price Type Code = 'N'
					Transfer Price  = NOR - NOR_Discount

		But the NOR = 0 so:  Price Type Code = 'G' 
					Transfer Price  = Order MLP - MLP_Dscnt

	        But Trsnfr Price < Std AND Below STD COST SW = 'N' so:
			     	     Price Type Code = 'L' 
					Transfer Price  = Std Cost + Uplift

Thank you for the explanation...

I guess nobody printed the new (V3.1) versions of the documents....
