This routine defines the standard sale features like price list, payment term and mode for one or for all customers. The system applies the business rule automatically, validating the conditions of the sale order. Thus, sales that do not correspond to the established business rule are not applied. In this case, the order is blocked.

This concept is used to make business practices easier, inhibiting sales that are not favorable to the company and establishing negotiation opportunities.

Important:

Business rule prevails over the definition of the Price List and other rules.



Application

The rule is evaluated while confirming addition or change of sale order.

If no business rule is registered, the order is approved.

If Negotiation tab displays only items of Rule type, the system assumes the order is on hold, until a item of Rule type (in the Negotiation tab) releases it.

  1. The system checks if an item in the Negotiation tab corresponds to the order. If it does, the order is cleared. Otherwise, the order remains on hold;
  2. In the following tabs, the same procedure is made until an item holds an order once again, because in case of an exception in the discount range or in the Commercialization tab, holding the product again, the product is not released.
