1. :coolsmile:
   I am currently working on a project implementing Advanced Pricing with Service contracts. There are specific requirements from the client. I am looking for a way to set up advanced pricing which will look at an amount first and use that amount to calculate a price based on a factor and then divided by 12 (months). Let me know if someone has been involved with such an implementation already.

2. This would involve creating a pricing attribute and Formula. you would map the pricing attribute to point to the amount you are referring and then use this pricing attribute in a formula. You will also need a factor list as one of the step in the formula to decode the value of the pricing attribute (“amount”) to a factor. This step value will be devided by 12 in the formula expression to give the final price.

3. Hi Suv
   I recently started working in Oracle apps . The group i am working most works on Service Sales data which involved Service Conracts related data , ie OKC n stuff .
   I have already got some familiarity with IB n SA tables n structures .However , part of my assignment now involved looking into Pricing Module i with respect to products associated with Contracts . This would ultimately lead to finding total list price on the contract which would later be used for Sales perdiction n other purposes by business .

   I was wondering if you tell me
   1. Whts the pre-requisite functional area which i should know in order to understand pricing better ??
   2. Although information here is excellent , but at this point it just seems too much n too indepth for me , could u suggest good links or doc’s i should read to get familiar with Pricing ??

   please let me know
   I guess i am starting off with Apps in Service Agreements n IB area, so tryin to figure out which is best way to understand all this better n grow in knowledge

4. I was wondering if anyone has found a way to apply more than one cost to a single item in Oracle. For example we may have several end users who have negotiated a deviated cost with one of our suppliers. The item may normally cost us $100.00 but if we sell it to customer A our cost is $95.00 if we sell it to customer B our cost is $92.00. Can multiple cost be associated with an item in Oracle or is their a 3rd party software company that can work with Oracle to handle contract deviated costing?

5. Hi Nancy

   I would suggest you also post this question on the forum. I’ve noticed that the e-mail to Suv of comments to this post bounced so your question would become more visible to a wider audience in the forum.
