The sales price list is based on the purchase price list with a factor of 1.5. A range of items in the sales price list were reprised using the Prices Update Wizard. Later, when the purchase price…

Question

Options

• AThe item has a special discount.
• BThe item belongs to a discount group.
• CThe price of the item in the sales price list is set to manual.
• DThe item's purchase price was reduced rather than increased.

• A

• B
  8% (2)
• C
  76% (19)
• D
  4% (1)

Explanation

When an item's price in a sales price list is marked as Manual, it is no longer dynamically linked to the base price list factor. The Prices Update Wizard can set individual item prices to manual during repricing, which severs the automatic relationship - so when the purchase price later changes, the system has no factor-based rule to propagate, and the sales price stays frozen at whatever value was manually set.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A (Special discount): Discounts are applied at the transaction level and have no effect on whether a price list updates automatically based on a factor.
• B (Discount group): Like item-level discounts, discount groups govern transaction pricing, not how price list factors propagate between linked lists.
• D (Price reduced rather than increased): The factor mechanism applies regardless of the direction of the price change - both increases and decreases would be reflected unless the price is manual.

Memory tip: Think of "Manual" as cutting the rope between two price lists. Once cut by the Prices Update Wizard, changes upstream can no longer pull the downstream price along - no matter what happens to the purchase price.
