Pricing Rules of different types can be combined. Discount, Brand and Product Group Level Rules are additive.
The addition algorithm offers two distinct modes:
- Linear-additive - Linear-additive adds rebates in a linear fashion, taking the sum of all rebates and applying them to the total. For example, a line discount of 35 percent plus a brand discount of 5 percent equals a 40 percent overall rebate.
- Price-additive - Price-additive rebates use an iterative calculation. For example, a line discount of 35 percent plus a brand discount of 5 percent equals a 38.25 percent overall rebate. The initial discount of 35 percent is deducted from the total, and the new total is the starting point for the 5 percent discount.
Price-additive calculation is the default behavior. It can be switched to linear addition by enabling the Veeva Setting Enable Simple Rebate Addition.
Configuring Combining Pricing Rules
Prerequisites
To enable this feature:
-
Ensure initial configuration is complete.
-
Set the Rebate_InLevel_Addition_vod Veeva Setting to 0 for linear-additive pricing, or to 1 for price-additive pricing. The default value is 0.
A null value is treated as 0.
Using Combining Pricing Rules
Inline Price-Additive Calculations
With the Rebate_InLevel_Addition_vod Veeva setting, users can indicate whether multiple rebates in the same discount level on an order should use linear-additive or price-additive behavior.
This setting applies to the following Order_Line_vod discount rule fields:
- Line_Discount_Rule_vod
- Brand_Discount_Rule_vod
- Group_Discount_Rule_vod
- Order_Discount_Rule_vod
