Which Prices can be auto-maintained?
The auto-maintain is an automation implemented in the system to automatically create/update/delete the price list for Korea, India and China.
The auto-maintain was anabled manually for the pricing settings provided by the business (not all the pricing settings are auto-maintained) that match the following criteria:
- the pricing setting currency is USD (the auto-maintained is only working for USD currency)
- the pricing setting Region & Incoterms is one of the combinations in the table below:
Currency | Region | Incoterms |
USD | China | EXW, CIP, CFR, CIF |
USD | India | EXW, CIP, CFR, CIF |
USD | Korea | DDP |
The auto-maintain feature creates automatically Pricing Settings and Product Brackets with the price in the local currencies with specific Incoterms.
| Region | Local Currency | Incoterms |
| China | CNY | DDP |
| India | INR | EXW |
| Korea | KRW | DDP |
The “Auto maintained in local currency?” checkbox is hidden when
- the currency is not USD or
- the region is not China, India or Korea or
- the Product Pricing is not Valid.
The Product Manager can deactivate the auto-maintain feature - he goes into the Pricing Setting and deselect the checkbox “Auto maintained in local currency?”
The Product Manager can see if the auto-maintained is enabled or not, through the grids but he cannot change the auto-maintained field in Grids..
AUTO MAINTAINED IN LOCAL CURRENCY? - if checked, indicates that the Pricing Setting in USD is enabled to be auto-maintained in the local currency (CNY, INR, KRW)
AUTO MAINTAINED - if checked, indicates that the Pricing Setting is created automatically through the auto-maintained feature.
