Re: Customer hierarchy in BPCS

[Ruben Mirensky <rmirensky@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Figuratively speaking is like a family.

Certain things are controlled by the Corporate parent
and certain things are controlled by the Sales parent.

Pricing, for example, is controlled by the Corporate
parent.  So you can for example set all the customers
that share a Special Pricing code with the same
Corporate Parent and then use that Parent Customer
number as the Pricing Customer for all the members of
the family.  You would then need to set the Special
Pricing chart only for the Corporate parent and it
will apply to all the Customers "in the family".

Other functions are controlled by the Sales Parent. 
Item - Customer Cross Reference, for example, or the
Commissions' table.

Ruben A. Mirensky.
