    Hello all,

    We currently purchase some items from GPO contracts and have them loaded as such.

    However, if we purchase from a certain vendor, we get an additional discount...4.6 cost minus.

    How can Lawson handle the additional discount automatically?

    Thank you

      Do you have the "From Vendor Agreements" option on PO10.1 (PO Vendor) flipped to "Y" or perhaps you're pulling the cost from last PO option on the same screen?

        Thanks for the quick response.
        Both options are set to "N".

          So if PO25 is where you load the vendor agreement info,
          would PO25.2 be where you put in the additional discount, from the vendor, from the GPO price setup in PO28?

          thanks

            Well you could use PO25.2 to set it up that way, however we don't use it here (I work for a clinic with over 50 satellites). Presently, we adjust price as necessary based on our Premier contracts right in PO25.6 per item unless we're getting a long list from a vendor. You do have to remember to release those changes though in each agreement. PO26.7 is a mass way to do this.

              Thanks for the response.
              So in PO25.6, do you put in the Premier price under Base Cost?
              Then where do you put in the additional discount if purchased from a certain vendor?

              Thanks

                Good Morning,

                Yes, we have our Premier price in PO25.6 and make changes as needed. We don't store discounts in Lawson because it would apply to every item and we're not really interested in the base cost, we want to know just what we pay.

                    But you definitely could try PO25.2. If it doesn't work, just go into that particular agreement delete the discount you put in there. Unfortunately we haven't used it and I can't guarantee it will work for you.
