Documentation
Definition
Defines how the commodity pricing engine (CPE) calculates one rate out of a list of price quotations.
Use
The calculation rule can be assigned to a term rule or maintained directly in a term.
During the term evaluation, all price quotations within the given period are returned to the calculation rule. From this input data, one rate - the value with reference to currency, price unit, and unit of measure (UoM) - is calculated. The internal logic behind this calculation is defined by the specified calculation routine assigned to the calculation rule.
It is also possible to define a minimum and a maximum rate to ensure that the calculated value will not be beyond certain limits.
Calculation rules can be defined in the CPE Customizing activity, Define Calculation Rule.
Dependencies
The customer namespace for Rules is A0000 to ZZZZZ.
Example
- 1 (Average (Default)): The average of the price quotations is calculated, no limits.
- 2 (Minimum): The lowest price quotation is taken, no limits.
- 3 (Maximum): The highest price quotation is taken, no limits.
