Auto Populate Updated Unit Price on OE Shipment Screen based on Contact Pricing in Sage 300

By | July 31, 2023

One of the most crucial documents when creating an Order in SAGE 300 ERP is the Shipment. You can create a shipment after or before creating an order. When making a shipment through an order, the customer number, order number, item number, item description, price list, and item’s unit price are all fetched into the shipping screen. This process has some limitations. Using Sage 300’s standard workflow, the same unit price from the order will flow into the shipment i.e. if order is created for particular item with “XX” Unit price in the month of January and Shipment for that order is created in month of March, it is possible that for those item’s the unit price might have change, but with Sage 300 standard workflow the same unit price from order will flow into the Shipment. We have developed a customization for Shipment which will overcome this drawback. This customization will check for the following points:

New Stuff: Sales Order Report

  • To determine whether the items fixed price from the IC Contract pricing Screen corresponds with the unit price in the shipment.
  • If the shipment date does not coincide with the date set for an item’s fixed price on the IC Contract pricing screen, the unit price of the item should be updated.

In this blog post, we’ll introduce the OE Shipment Screen Customization, which automatically update the Unit price of an item in the Shipment screen if the shipping date does not correspond with the date that is in the IC Contract pricing screen. In order to update the Shipment Unit pricing, the shipment date will be a filtering factor.

Below is the screenshot of Order Entry done in the Month of May which had Unit Price as ‘500’. This price was Updated for the month of July and Set as ‘1000’ in Contract Pricing Screen.

Hence as seen in the below screenshot, Item’s unit price in shipment is different than the Item’s Fixed Price in IC Contract Pricing screen. This Unit Price in Shipment screen is getting fetched from Order entry screen.

Hence, to overcome this, we have automated the Shipment by customizing in such a way that the Item’s Unit price in Shipment gets updated with Item’s Fixed price in IC Contract Pricing screen.
