Min & Max Adjusted Price

When setting up a product's pricing, you may have noticed fields for the Minimum & Maximum Adjusted Price. These fields are used in conjunction with the Short Pay code.


When the Short Pay code is REJECT, you can't edit the field, but BOTH the Min and Max are set to the full price of the product. Thus for the order line to be Active, the full price has to be paid.

When the Short Pay code is AR, you can't edit the field, but the Max is set to the full price of the product and the Min is set to zero. Thus for the order line to be Active, anything can be paid, and the remainder is a receivable on the order.

When the Short Pay code is ADJUST, you CAN edit the field. The Max is the largest amount that the price will be adjusted up to on an order. For example if the price is $100 and the Max is $200 and a customer pays $150, the price of the line item will be adjusted from $100 to $150. However, if they paid $500, the price of the line item would only be adjusted to $200.

The Min is the smallest amount the price can be adjusted to for the order to be active. For example if the price is $100 and the Min is $50 and a customer pays $75, the price of the line item will be adjusted from $100 to $75. However, if they paid $25, the price would not be adjusted that low and the order would not be made Active.

.NET WebService Studio

Looking for a good tool to call Web Services? Try the .NET WebService Studio 2.0. This tool will

...invoke webmethods interactively. The user can provide a WSDL endpoint. On clicking button Get the tool fetches the WSDL, generates .NET proxy from the WSDL and displays the list of methods available. The user can choose any method and provide the required input parameters. On clicking Invoke the SOAP request is sent to the server and the response is parsed to display the return value.
