Modify the status of a pricing rule

A pricing organization user can change the status of a pricing rule to either activate or deactivate the pricing rule.

About this task

A pricing rule can be in either Active status or Inactive status. A pricing rule can have an effect on the order price only if the pricing rule is in the Active status. A pricing organization user can assign a pricing rule that is in the Inactive status to a customer, but that pricing rule will have no effect on the price adjustments made to the order until it is activated.
