In order to control price deviations at One Quote level, a custom approval process has been built. We built it in order to manage potentially different approvers per product lines.
I/ Approval fields calculation during price configuration
At One Quote line item level as soon the "Quoted price" is edited, the system calculates dynamically if there is an approval needed or not.
Depending on the deviation threshold one of the 3 roles below will need to approve:
- RMD (Regional market director)
- GMD (Global market director)
- PAM (Product Attribute Manager)
To calculate the RMD and GMD approver role we use the corresponding approval thresholds % stored on the related volume bracket and we calculate at OQLI level the "GMD approval" and "RMD approval" threshold unit values.
Then the system compares the quoted price vs the above thresholds unit values.
If the quoted price is below "RMD approval" and above "GMD approval" and Price floor the approver role will be RMD
If the quoted price is below "GMD approval" and above price floor the approver role will be GMD
If the quoted price is below "Price floor" the approver will be PAM
