The table below explains the fields on the Product Configuration screen.
Field |
Description |
---|---|
Use pricing lists |
Allows you to create different pricing lists so that products can be sold at different prices. For example, you may want to set up a Wholesale pricing list and a Retail pricing list. If set to No, there is one price for each product. Once you have created Price Lists and applied them to Products, you cannot disable this option until you deactivate the Price Lists. Note if you set this option to No, the Price Lists tab will not be visible after you click Save. |
Use units of measure |
When set to Yes, products can be sold in single units or in different multiples, for examples packs of 6 and packs of 12. Pricing can be then applied to the Unit of Measure (UOM). If set to No, prices are applied to single products only. Note if you set this option to No, the Units of Measure tab will not be visible after you click Save. |
Automate opportunity creation |
When this option is switched on, clicking New menu button and selecting Quote or Order automatically creates an Opportunity in which the new Quote or Order resides. If it is switched off, however, users cannot create new Quotes and Orders with the New menu button, they can only create them from within an existing Opportunity. |
Order level discount |
When set to Yes, adds an order level discount section to the Quote and Order screen. This enables users to apply a discount to an entire order, not just to individual line items. |
Sales currencies supported |

This field is available only on accounts that support multiple currencies. To enable this field, click Data Management | Currency Configuration and set Is single currency to No. |

With multiple quotes selected, Sage CRM appends a randomly generated number. Sage CRM automatically removes the following special characters from quote identifiers before appending them to file names: / \ : * ? " < > | . & ' |
Order format |
The format of the Order’s reference ID. This can be set up by using the same options as used for the Quote Format, along with any other text and numbers you need For example: ORD20#Y-0000#I would give you ORD2014-0000514, for the 514th order in the system, added in 2014. |
