RE: COM Selling Price Calculation

You can use the pricing USER EXIT to return the value.  Use UMBCLC3R to
return the price rounded...

I have had several clients with basically the same problem.  I have had to
write special routines executed with an API to handle it for them.

     Subject: COM Selling Price Calculation



     Our base prices are rounded to two decimal positions.  On occasion we
     give our customers discounts - via price books (page 4).  When this
     calculation is done the selling price result is 3 decimals.


     Our invoices are modified to show the selling price in dollars &
     cents, not fractions.  If a selling price result has all 3 decimal
     positions it will confuse our customers (33.33% discount on a base
     price of 5.14 is 3.427; extended by 50 units is 171.35; invoice shows
     3.42 but customer thinks it should be 171.00).


     Mapics does not have on option/feature to round the selling price.
     Does anyone have some tips, ideas, examples, etc. as to rounding the
     selling price to 2 decimals?  API and/or User Exit?


     Thanks!
