Processing Prices, Discounts and Subcontracting

Pricing layers for processings mirror sales prices: a base price per customer or customer price group, with optional discounts and surcharges, plus separate tables for subcontractor costs.

The four pricing layers

Processing Price — unit price per Processing Code + customer / customer price group.
Processing Price Discount — % discount with customer/date/quantity criteria.
Processing Price Surcharge — % mark-up, same criteria.
Processing Subcontractor Price — vendor cost for outsourced processings.

Processing Price — field reference

Field	Purpose
Processing Code	Reference to Processing master.
Sales Type	Customer / Customer Price Group / All Customers.
Sales Code	Customer/group/empty, per Sales Type.
Currency Code	From customer or manual.
Unit of Measure Code	Steel UoM. Must be a valid base UoM.
Unit Price	Cost per UoM.
Starting / Ending Date	Validity window.
Minimum Quantity	Volume-tier threshold.
Allow Line Disc.	Bool — toggles linkage to BC standard line discount.

Subcontracting — separate price list

When a processing happens externally, DXSteel uses the Processing Subcontractor Price table to model vendor cost. Difference from regular pricing: links to Vendor No. instead of customer.

Best practices

Set prices first at the Customer Price Group level (Gold / Silver / Bronze) and fall back to All Customers as base. Per-customer overrides are exceptions.

For subcontracted processings: set the Subcontractor No. on the routing line. DXSteel then automatically picks up the subcontractor price.

Processing Price Inquiry — lookup tool for the current processing price on a sales line.
Processing Costs — fixed costs per processing, separate from prices.
Order Costs — aggregated view of all processing costs on a sales or production order.
