Price list statuses
A price list can be in either Active status or Inactive status.
A price list impacts the prices of the items in it only if the price list is in the Active status. A pricing organization user can assign a price list that is in the Inactive status to a customer, but that price list will have no impact on the price applied to the customer's orders until it is activated. A pricing organization user can change the status of a price list in order to either activate or deactivate the price list.
In addition to a price list having a status of Active or Inactive, price list lines within a price list can have a status of Active or Inactive. The following table provides scenarios of how the status of a price list and price list lines determines when prices are pulled from the price list:
| If: | Then: |
|---|---|
| The price list is Active and the price list lines are Active | All the prices can be pulled from the price list and applied to a customer's order. |
| The price list is Active and the price list lines are Inactive | Only prices for items that have a price list line as Active can be pulled from the price list and applied to a customer's order. |
| The price list is Inactive and the price list lines are Active | Prices cannot be pulled from the price list and applied to a customer's order. |
| The price list is Inactive and the price list lines are Inactive | Prices cannot be pulled from the price list and applied to a customer's order. |
