Please review the following documents which gives insight on the Advanved Pricing Integration in Purchasing products in Release 11.5.10 and R12.

1. PO Integration with QP Whitepaper.doc - Published in Metalink, note 394490.1 -

3. Attached Power Point presentation on the R12 Pricing Integration changes.

In overview, in R12 qualifiers can be set based on Contract Purchase Agreements as well as Blanket and Global Blanket Agreements and we support only goods based lines, and the following line types are not supported for the Advanced Pricing Integration.

No. Type Name Value Basis Purchase Basis
1 Rate based Temp Labor Rate Temp Labor
2 Fixed Price Temp Labor Fixed Price Temp Labor
3. Fixed Price Services Fixed Price Temp Labor
4. Amount Based Services Fixed Price Services

Also, Internal requisitions will not be priced against advanced pricing setup.

Please review the PO Integration with QP Whitepaper for the supported/unsupported Advanced Pricing features in Purchasing. The details listed in this doc is applicable to both 11.5.10 and R12, except few delta changes to support Blanket Agreements in R12, and in 11.5.10, we can only qualify the price list/modifier,etc based on Contract Purchase Agreement(CPA).

Advanced Pricing has the Promotional Limits feature since 11.5.9 to monitor the spend limits against a promotional discount modifier, the limit can be either Hard/Soft limit and you can monitor the discount applied/generate reports, etc. Purchasing does not have integration for Promotional Limits feature till R12.
