Description

To support Discounting by Product Group or Brand the WMS uses the Special Pricing Schedule (SPS) and NONINVENTORY items that identify the Brand/Group being discounted.

Allocate brands as custom list fields (you must only user CUSTOMLIST#1)

Items are associated with a BRAND or GROUP using CUSTOMLIST#1. The field chosen in CUSTOMLIST#1 indicates the BRAND or GROUP of the item.

For example you could have a CUSTOMLIST option of ALine or DATAPEL as your product group or as a brand.


Create brand group items

To allow discounts to be APPLIED in a MULTI “Special Pricing Schedule” (SPS) a NON-INVENTORY ITEM is created with its ITEM NUMBER as the CUSTOMLIST Brand or Group field name. The item name is usually set to read BRAND or GROUP ITEM.

IMPORTANT: CUSTOMLIST#1 and the ITEM NUMBER must be an exact match for the Item to be recognized as a BRAND / GROUP identifier.

Detail Steps

Open MYOB – login to your company file. Select the LISTS menu then click Custom Lists and Field Names, now click the Items Tab.

STEP 2.

It is recommended that Custom List #1 be replaced with BRAND or GROUP.
