Ever used Contract Pricing ... me neither ...

Had a unique need to add an exception to the standard billing schedule where our prices would be HIGHER than standard ....99.4% of all exceptions ( 100% until now ) are LOWER --so this was different.

Tried the BP ( Best Pricing ) column we had always been told to answer "E" to .... to a N ... of course we have to QUIT Exploris and bring back up - so the changes take effect ...after playing with options and even looking this up the HELP section of Exploris (been a while looking at that ...smile) and lookin
g at the rather complex ( and fuzzy to read ) flow chart ....still not figure out the problem.

Then told of setting ( who knew ? ) in CONTROLS>SYSTEM>GENERAL SETUP for 'BEST PRICE OVERRIDE ' ... but after listing to the pro's and con's decided it had too many negative effects ...

Finally JP mentions -- use CONTRACT PRICING .... my knowledge of Contract Pricing was extremely limited and wasn't it a pain in the ass in J-Con ... fear stops y
ou from learning. Anyways -- short answer -- contract pricing will work just fine in the situation -- it appears that is TRUMPS all options and if JUST effecting this line and sub-line as we set it up.

Still learning ...
