The first step when configuring unit pricing for customer contracts, is to define a 'library' of Unit price lists (UPLs). This can be done in the Unit price lists TSI. These price lists can be used later as a starting point when creating specific Contract price lists for a customer contract. One reason for having multiple lists of unit prices in the library might be that you require separate lists for different countries or regions. But of course there are many other conceivable use cases.

Once a UPL is added to the library, you can link products and product unit prices, for each product that may be relevant to your customer contracts. Products on the unit price list may include maintenance materials, spare parts or cleaning agents, but also catering products for example. In any case, the selection of products depends on the type of customers and/or regions you are defining the unit price list for. See Linked products for more information on the links.

When you are satisfied that the unit price list (and related data) is configured correctly, you can set its status from In preparation to Active. Unit price lists that are no longer relevant can be Ended and subsequently Archived.

Benefits: the use of a Unit price lists library will facilitate the work of sales and contract managers when they are linking products to a customer contract.
