In this screen, the user may elect to add additional customer pricing for a product by using the Edit function.
Then the Price Break screen for a specific customer is presented to the user, based on the customer selected in the first screen:
And the Add Action button becomes active. If the user is creating the first pricing screen, then the Edit Action button is not yet available.
The user may create up to seven different pricing levels for each customer. To add the first pricing screen, the Add Action button must be pressed and the password entered.
The “Price 1” screen is activated, allowing the user to enter pricing for the customer shown.
This screen has two main sections: the pricing at quantity levels; and the ability to amortize the expense of any object such as tooling over a fixed number of deliveries.
In the Amortization Charge section, the user can enter an amount to be amortized, and the number of units shipped over which the amortization is to be applied. As product is shipped, the Shipped Qty will be updated, and when the entire quantity is shipped, the additional amortization cost will be dropped from the invoice.
The first prompt is for the beginning number of items to be priced, defaulting to one (1). The next field is for the upper number to be included in the price structure, e.g., 100 (pricing is for 1 to 100 items).You can input pricing up to 999,999, but you are limited to seven price breaks.

As product is shipped, the Shipped Qty will be updated, and when the entire quantity is shipped, the additional amortization cost will be dropped from the invoice.
The cursor then moves to the first Sales Price Breakdown section where the user may define the pricing used for individual units. The definition of the pricing is established in the System Setup, and may be selected with the “pulldown arrow” and clicking on a definition, or typing the definition. After selecting a definition, the pricing associated with the definition is entered. (e.g., the definition might be “Total Material Cost” and $350 per unit. Or, perhaps a definition simply called “Standard Price” is used.)
On the next line, another pricing definition may be included, e.g. “Priority Charge”, with an additional charge of $50 per unit.
Manex will continue to total up the unit pricing and show it on the screen.
The completed screen looks like this:
When the user has completed the information for the 1st price break, the screen is either saved or canceled. The following message will appear asking if the user wants to add another record.
If there is another price category to be added, depress the Yes button.
The user may then add an additional price break, which will default to a beginning quantity equal to the top of the first price break quantity plus one. The fields used in the first price break will be carried over to the second price. Changing the definition in any price break screen changes all the others for that product.
Pricing for a different customer for the SAME product may be established by selecting the customer in the first screen, then adding a new price break for that customer.
After completing this PRICING customer information screen, the user may tab (clicks on) to the Part Information Note screen.
The Part Information screen for the product is presented to the user, and may be edited. Information placed in this screen is common to all customers, (it is based on information about the product), and the Tab Label turns RED.
Press the Save Action button Save new or edited data.
Press the Abandon changes Action button to Cancel any new or edited information without saving the information in the database.
Press the Edit Action button to exit the current screen and returns the user to the previous screen.
