Check the system reference for the number of decimal places required for the price ex GST increase on the meter price. |
There is a check box on each of the Meter prices. This check box governs whether you want to increase this meter product price type if you should have more than one-meter product price type on a meter. If the check box is OFF (not ticked) on any meter product price and there is an Auto increase set up on that meter, the pricing will update based on the values in the Auto increase setup for each meter when the task runs. |
Scenarios/Formula/Examples Field: Auto Increase Price Percentage = insert the % value by which you want to increase the price ex meter price on the meter Formula : (meter price ex * %/100) + price ex Scenario with just auto increase price percentage on the Monometer Price Ex on the Mono Meter with a type = Count is $0.015 ex GST Calc = $0.015 * 10/100 = $0.0015 increase in price for that meter Set up below auto increase on the meter of Mono Meter price on the Mono meter before the auto increase: After the task runs the result on the mono meter is shown below Colour meter same machine different percentage of 5% The result after the task ran for the colour meter Scenario with just auto increase price percentage and auto increase price before factor on the Mono meter Field : Auto increase price percentage on this monometer = 10% Formula = (Price Ex Gst + $value in auto increase price before factor)$ 0.10 * %/100 = price to be increase by Price to be increased by + Original Price Ex Gst Eg mono meter The price ex on the mono meter with a type of Count is $0.0165 Calc =( old price ex $0.0165 + autoincrasepricebeforefactor 0.10)= $0.1165 * (autoincreasepricepercentage *10/100)= $0.01165 Result = (0.0165 + 0.10) = $0.1165 * 10/100 = $0.01165 price increase value Old price ex plus to pricefactorbefore =$0.1165 + 0.01165 = $0.12815 new price ex increased to Price set up before the task The result after the task runs: Scenario with just auto increase price percentage and auto increase price after factor on the Monometer Field : Auto increase price percentage on this mono meter = 10% Work out the price increase firstly Then add the value of the priceafterfactor
Calc =( old price ex $0.1282 *10/100))= $0.01282 (to increase by) $0.1282 (old price ex) + increase price value $0.01282 = $0.14102 increase price ex $0.14102 + $0.015 (autoincreasepriceafterfactor) = $0.15602 new price ex Result =( $0.1282 *10/100) = $0.14102 (price increase by) $0.14102 + $0.015 = $0.15602 new price ex |
