When you click on the View Record Details icon Detail for a specific record on the Customer Master Search/Criteria Grid page, the Customer Master Detail page opens for that record. The information contained on the Detail page includes many more fields than those displayed on the Search/Criteria Grid page. The fields on the Details page can also be edited.

There are many sections on the Detail page of the Customer Master. The following list defines every field in each section:

  • In the Header Info section:

    • Customer Name - the Customer Name can be a maximum of 30 alpha numeric characters in length. The Customer Name prints on all reports pertaining to customer information, including Sales Reports, Aging Reports and Open Order Reports. If multiple accounts share the same name, a unique characteristic (such as store number or location) is useful, for example, Sears-Toronto.

      • Note: When adding the customer name to a customer record, do not use the apostrophe (') as issues may arise when performing searches using lookup views. For example, if the customer's name is Karol's Koffee, we recommend that you enter the name as Karols Koffee.

      • If WMS (Elite WMS or Accellos) is active in Company Control Initialization (CC00/Warehouse Management Interface), then you cannot use the following characters in the Customer Name field: ^ < >. If you enter any of these characters, a warning message displays and you cannot update the record.

    • Address 1 - the street and number to a maximum of 30 characters.

      • If WMS (Elite WMS or Accellos) is active in CC00/Warehouse Management Interface, then you cannot use the following characters in the Address 1 field: ^ < > . If you enter any of these characters, a warning message displays and you cannot update the record.

    • Address 2 - any additional Address information such as Rural Route or Uniu/Suite number to a maximum of 30 characters.

      • If WMS (Elite WMS or Accellos) is active in CC00/Warehouse Management Interface, then you cannot use the following characters in the Address 2 field: ^ < >. If you enter any of these characters, a warning message displays and you cannot update the record.

    • City - the City or town to a maximum of 30 characters.

    • Province/State - enter or select from the lookup Lookup the Province or State. The Province/State list is maintained in Maintain Province Codes (CC14). Note: Once the Province or State is entered, the Country field automatically displays the associated Country.

    • Postal/Zip - the Postal Code or Zip Code. For Canadian addresses, the Postal Code field automatically converts to Upper Case. The Postal Code displays exactly as keyed, therefore be sure to enter the Postal Code with a space between the first group of 3 alpha numeric characters and the second group of 3 alpha numeric characters, for example H0H 0H0.

    • Country - the Country automatically displays once the Province or State is selected from the list box. You can edit this field, as required.

  • In the Additional Info section:

    • Account Type - you can only edit this field in the following cases:

      • when the CRM module is activated
        AND
      • the Account Type is set to 'P' (prospect).

      Note: If the CRM module is not part of your PointForce iTopia package, this field is visible but is pre-set to C-Customer.

      There are two valid Account Types that you can enter or select from the drop list: Prospect and Customer. Both Customers and Prospects can be created directly in SU13. Prospects can also be a by-product of a Lead that was converted to a Prospect.

      1. P-Prospect - identifies the Customer Code as a 'Prospect' account type. A prospect is a client that has the potential to become a 'Customer'. Note: Once a Customer Code is changed from a Prospect to a Customer, you cannot revert the Customer Code back to a Prospect account type. The change is one way only i.e. from Prospect to Customer.

        • If the 'Prospect Status' is set to Qualified, the 'qualified prospect' Customer Code can be entered in Enter Orders & Quotes (OE30) and a quote can be created; a Photo Quote can also be created in Maintain Photo Quote Forms (IM81).

        • In addition, certain reports in PointForce Enterprise can be filtered by Prospect. These reports included the Open Order Report (OE50), Customer Listings (SU15), etc.

      2. C-Customer - identifies the Customer Code as a 'Customer' account type. A Customer Code with an Account Type of Customer can be used throughout all of the programs in PointForce Enterprise and PointForce iTopia. Note: You cannot change the Account Type from 'Customer' back to 'Prospect'.

    • Customer Status - the Accounts Receivable status code. Enter or select from the lookup Lookup the AR Status. Note: The Customer Status field is unavailable when the Account Type is set to 'Prospect'.

      Valid options include:

      • A - Current and Active; the default code.

      • H - Customer On Hold; Orders are taken for this Customer, but are placed on Credit Hold. A warning message displays in OE30/IN41 stating: "Customer status is "H". This Order will go on credit hold". In RS41, the message states, "Customer status is "H". Cash transactions only".

      • D - Ready to Delete; the Customer is flagged for deletion. The Customer cannot be deleted from Enterprise in Delete Inactive Customers (SU16) until the Customer is completely inactive, i.e. no Sales Orders or Invoices exist.

      • P - Pending Credit Status; Orders are taken for this Customer, but are placed on Credit Hold. A warning message displays in OE30 stating: "Customer status is "P" (Pending). Order will be held." In IN41 and RS41, the message advises that the "Customer status is "P" (Pending)"; you can continue to Invoice the customer.

    • Prospect Status - this field is only available when the CRM module is active. This field represents the status associated with the Prospect. Enter or select from the lookup Lookup a Prospect Status. Note: The Prospect Status field is unavailable when the Account Type is set to 'Customer'.

      Valid options include:

      • Q - Qualified; The prospect is qualified and can now receive Quotes from OE30 and Photo Quotes from IM81.

      • A - Archived; The prospect record stays in the system. The SU16 program will not delete prospect records flagged as 'Archived'. This status code allows you to keep the prospect on file for future reference.

      • D - Ready to Delete; Flags the prospect for deletion. The next time SU16 runs, the all prospects flagged 'Ready to Delete' will be removed from the system. Caution: SU16 will delete a prospect flagged for deletion even if the prospect has open Quotes in OE30. The open quotes will be removed from the system along with the Prospect.

    • Phone Number - the Phone Number appears exactly as entered in SU13. Be sure to include the Area Code and dashes.

    • Fax - the Fax number appears exactly as entered in SU13. Be sure to include the Area Code and dashes.

    • Customer Date Opened - the date on which the Customer record is initially created. If the CRM module is activated, this field is also updated when a Prospect is converted to a Customer. This field is for information purposes only and cannot be edited.

    • Prospect Date Opened - this field is only used when the CRM module is active. The Prospect Date Opened is the date on which the Prospect record is initially created. This field is also updated when a Lead is converted to a Prospect in the Lead Master . This field is for information purposes only and cannot be edited.

    • Lead Date Opened - this field is only used when the CRM module is active. The Lead Date Opened is the date on which the Lead record was initially created in the Lead Master. This information is brought into SU13 when the Lead is converted to a Prospect, and stays with the record when the Prospect becomes a Customer. This field is for information purposes only and cannot be edited.

  • In the Accounts Receivable section:

    • Paying Office - the Paying Office represents the Customer Code to which Invoices are posted. The Paying Office field is automatically set to be the same value as the Customer Code. A new Paying Office code can be entered or selected from the lookup Lookup.

      • Note: The Paying Office cannot have an Account Type set to 'Prospect' when assigned to a Customer record. If you assign a Prospect Paying Office to a Customer, the following message displays: "Customer ##### is a Prospect. Prospects may not be paying offices."

      • When 'Head Office' pays the Invoices for all stores in a chain, the Head Office is set up as a Customer and the Head Office Customer code is assigned as the Paying Office for each store in the chain.

      • The Paying Office field (and not the Customer Code) is used for Credit Limit and Delinquency checks.

      • The Paying Office field (and not the Customer Code) is used for the following Accounts Receivable functions: Account Inquiry, Statement of Account and Aging Report.

      • Sales statistics are updated using the 'Sold To' Customer Code on the Invoice, not the Paying Office Customer Code for all sales files except Record of Collections (ARRC), where sales are updated per the Paying Office. Sales stored in this file are displayed in Customer Inquiries (SU45/Account Summary) and can be optionally printed on the Overdue Analysis Report (AR83) and the Aging Report (AR84).

      • The pricing routing considers the Paying Office when assigning Special Prices. For more information on Price List rules, click here.

    • AR Terms - the standard Invoice (Accounts Receivable) terms. Enter or select from the lookup Lookup the standard AR Terms code for the Customer. The Terms codes are defined in Maintain A/R Terms (AR03). The standard Terms code is assigned to all Orders and Invoices for the Customer.

    • Bank - the Accounts Receivable Bank code. Enter or select from the lookup Lookup the AR Bank code. The Bank codes are defined in Maintain Bank Codes (AR02). Note: The Bank must have a Gateway of 'None'.

      • The Customer is linked to a Bank code in AR02. The Bank Code identifies the GL Accounts to be updated for domestic and foreign Invoicing and cash receipts. If the Currency Type for the Bank Code is 'Foreign', special processing rules in the Invoicing cycle are executed for exchange purposes. For more information on Foreign Currency Invoicing, click here .

      • Note on Changing the Bank Code: Before you change the Bank,you need to be aware of the currency of the current Bank. If you change the bank code to another bank code with the same currency, there is no need to be concerned about any other fields that involve currency (Master Price List and Specials/Contracts). If you change the bank code to one that is assigned to a different currency, you must take the following steps:

        1. Delete all Specials and Contracts on the Customer Price Lists (SU13) page.

        2. Change the Bank field to the desired bank code on the Customer Price Lists (SU13) page.

        3. Change the Master Price List to one that is associated with the same currency as the selected Bank.

        4. Re-enter all of the Specials and Contracts on the Customer Price List (SU13) page selecting those that match the currency for the new Bank.

    • Credit Limit - the maximum Credit Limit for the Customer. The maximum allowable Credit Limit is 9,999,999.

      • When processing Sales Orders, the Credit Limit is compared to the Customer's AR balance PLUS all outstanding orders. If this value is greater than the Credit Limit, the order is placed On Hold and no shipping document is produced until the order is released from the Hold.

      • The Paying Office field (and not the Customer Code) is used for Credit Limit and Delinquency Checks.

      • Note: To bypass Credit Limit checking, enter a Credit Limit of zero in this field.

    • Delinq. Days - the Delinquency Days represent the maximum number of days that an Invoice can be overdue before new Orders or released Back Orders are placed On Hold. The maximum number of Delinquency Days is 999. Note: If you have Invoices that are greater than or equal to 999 days delinquent, Orders will still be put on Delinquency Hold.

      • The Invoice Terms are examined to determine the first day of delinquency for an Invoice. For example, an Invoice with Terms=Net 30 days is one day delinquent when the Invoice is 31 days old. If you set the Delinquency Days to 15, you are granting 15 days grace before this account is considered delinquent.

      • Delinq. Days = 0 means that Invoices and new Orders are expected to be paid the same day they are processed.

    • Charge Interest - enter or select from the drop down list an Interest code. The Interest Code defines the type of Interest charge applied to overdue Invoices. The following are valid codes:

      • M - Memo on Statement; Interest is calculated and printed as a memo line on the Statement from Print Statements (AR85). No open item record is generated.
      • N - No Interest; No interest is calculated for this customer.
      • I - Produce Interest Invoice; Interest is calculated, an open item record is generated, the calculated Interest charge is printed on the Statement (AR85) and a supporting Invoice is printed.

  • In the Order Entry section:

      • When Yes is selected, the 'Customer PO' field is mandatory in OE30, IN41, and RS41.

      • When No is selected, the 'Customer PO' field is optional in OE30, IN41 and RS41.

    • Blanket PO Number - the Blanket PO Number is a 'default' or standard Customer PO. When a Blanket PO Number is entered, this number automatically displays in the Customer PO field for every Order and Invoice generated.

    • Backorder Acceptance - this field indicates whether or not Back Orders are accepted by the Customer.

      • When Yes is selected, the Customer accepts Back Orders.

      • When No is selected, the Customer does not accept Back Orders. This sets the default for the 'Accept B/O' field in OE30, IN41 and RS41, but you can override the default as required.

        • When an Order is entered that includes Back Orders for a Customer that does not accept Back Orders, the back order quantity is still set in the order detail line. When the Invoice is printed and the program detects that this customer does not accept back orders, "B/O" is printed in the Extension column and the following note prints on the bottom of the Invoice: "***Any back ordered product has been cancelled. Please reorder.***". The back order line is automatically cancelled in Schedule Invoices/Credits (IN43).

    • BO Release Priority - the Back Order Release Priority field determines the priority for releasing Back Orders. Valid priorities are 0 to 9; the higher the priority code, the higher the priority when Back Orders are released by Release Backorders (OE61) for non-Order Management Customers.

      • For Customers running Order Management, releasing Back Orders is incorporated into the Stock Allocation function within Order Management.

      • For Customers with the same priority code, OE61 releases Back Orders in date sequence (oldest Back Orders are filled and released first).

      • Note: B/O Release Priority is available only when 'Stock Control Method' and 'Backorder Control Method' are set to 'Internal' in CC00/Order Entry or if Order Management is not used to control orders.

    • Order Type - the Order Type set in SU13 determines the default Order Type that displays in OE30, IN41 and RS41. Enter or select from the drop list an Order Type. Valid values include:

      • R-Regular
      • S-Sample
      • F-FOB

    • Order Confirmation Required - this field determines whether or not an Order confirmation is required by the customer.

      • When Yes is selected, an Order Confirmation is required by the customer. Clicking on New in OE30 opens the Print Selection screen allowing you to select the Order Confirmation destination.

      • When No is selected, an Order Confirmation is not required.

  • In the Taxes section:

    • Tax Group - enter or select from the lookup Lookup the Tax Group for this Customer. The Tax Group is used by the tax routine to calculate the appropriate Taxes for the Customer's Order. Tax Groups are maintained in Maintain Tax Groups (IN06).

        • If you are using the Packing Station module and you want the Invoices to automatically print during the Packing session, you must set the Invoice Action to 'S'.

      • M - Mail the Invoice Separately; IN42 allows you to print the Invoice (to the printer selected) and the Invoice number includes /M at the end, for example: 1001124/M.

      • H - Hold the Invoice; IN42 allows you to print the Invoice (to the printer selected) and the Invoice number includes /H at the end, for example: 1001125/H. An example is an Invoice that is only required internally, such as a Cash Sales Invoice and internal billings.

      • F - Fax (Castelle Faxpress); this option is valid when the Fax option of Forms eXpress is available. Invoices can either be sent via fax On Demand or in Batch. For more information about batch faxing click here. Note: If you select this option you must enter a Fax number in the header for the current record.

        • When 'batch faxing', if you select 'None-Do not Fax anything' as the Fax device in IN42, and you select a printer, the Invoice is printed to the printer. The Invoice number includes /F at the end, for example 1001112/F.

      • E - E-mail the Invoice; this option is valid when the E-mail option of Forms eXpress is available. Invoices can either be sent via E-mail On Demand or in Batch.

      • I - Internet Fax (XML); this option is valid when the IFax option of Forms eXpress is available. Invoices can either be sent via fax On Demand or in Batch. For more information about batch faxing click here. Note: If you select this option you must enter a Fax number in the header for the current record.

        • When 'batch faxing', if you select 'None-Do not Fax anything' as the Fax device in IN42, and you select a printer, the Invoice is printed to the printer. The Invoice number includes /F at the end, for example 1001112/F.

        • Note: This option is associated with the MyFax fax solution only.

      • T - Email Fax (SMTP); this option is valid when the TFax option of Forms eXpress is available. Invoices can either be sent via fax On Demand or in Batch. For more information about batch faxing click here. Note: If you select this option you must enter a Fax number in the header for the current record.

        • When 'batch faxing', if you select 'None-Do not Fax anything' as the Fax device in IN42, and you select a printer, the Invoice is printed to the printer. The Invoice number includes /F at the end, for example 1001112/F.

        • Note: This option is associated with the MyFax fax solution only.

      Note: When batch printing invoices, if you choose to print by either fax or e-mail, then IN42 sorts the invoices into Customer sequence ; this supersedes the Print Invoice Sequence setting in CC00/Invoicing (which could be Invoice, Customer or Ship Via). This is done to reduce the number of faxes/e-mails being sent. For example, if you have a customer that has three one-page invoices in a single IN42 batch, one fax consisting of 3 pages (4 if IN42 is configured to send a cover page) is sent to the customer instead of 3 separate faxes. The same scenario holds true for the email option.

    • E-mail Invoice to Contact - the E-mail Contact field is available only when Send Invoice field is set to 'E'. Enter or select from the lookup the 'Contact to E-mail' the Invoice to.Note: This field requires the contact key to update the record.

      • The lookup opens the Contact Master (EC30) view. The Contact Master information displays the contacts set up in EC30/SU20.

      • In PointForce Enterprise (PFE) 6.1, all contact information is currently maintained in PFE and available in iTopia as 'view only'. If a contact does not exist in the Contact Master (EC30) view in iTopia, you must return to EC30/SU20 in PFE and add the contact before you can select the contact in iTopia.

      • Note: When you open the Contact Master (EC30) view, enter the Customer Code in the Search Criteria section of the view in order to search for contacts that pertain to the Customer you are currently working with.

      • To select a Contact from the Contact Master (EC30) view, click on the check box on the Contact line in the grid. The Contact name displays to the right of this field and the field itself displays the numeric key associated with the Contact record selected.

      • When the Print Discount check box is selected (i.e. Print Discount is ON), the discount percent is applied to (Qty x Price) to get the extended discount amount which then reduces the line extension. On the printed invoice, the regular selling price is printed along with a discount 'code' followed by the discounted line extension. The discount 'code' is cross-referenced in a legend that is printed at the bottom of the invoice that explains the discount percent applied on the invoice lines.

      • When the Print Discount check box is NOT selected (i.e. Print Discount is OFF), the discount percent is applied to the selling price to get the discounted selling price; then (Qty x Discounted Selling Price) to get the line extension. On the printed invoice, the discounted price is printed and extended; there is no discount code or discount legend printed.

      Note: The calculations produce slightly different line extension totals depending on the setting of the print discount field. For more details, see the Print Discount topic.

  • In the Payment Processing section:

    • Payment Method - when you select a Payment Method in this field, the Payment Method for the 'First Payment' field in OE30/Total, IN41/Total and RS41/Total defaults to that selection. If you leave this field blank, there is no default setting in OE30, IN41 or RS41 and the operator is required to manually select the Payment Method for the 'First Payment' field.

      If you want to set the Payment Method default, enter or select from the lookup Lookup a Payment Method. Valid options include:

      • EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer) via a credit card - Payment Methods are set up in Maintain Payment Methods (IN08). When you select an EFT option, the credit card associated with the selection displays in the First Payment field in OE30/Total, IN41/Total and RS41/Total.

The Price List must correspond with the Currency associated with the Customer. The Currency field is displayed in the Main Context section of the Details page.

    • Pricing Level Type - select a Pricing Level Type from the drop list. This field and the 'Pricing Level' field (the following field) are used by the pricing routine.

      • The pricing routine uses the Pricing Level Type in conjunction with the Pricing Level (Quantity Break Level) entered to determine the base price that is then compared to other possible prices (Specials, Flyers, etc.) in order to calculate the best price for the Sales Order.

      Note: The Pricing Level Type is applied to the Master Price List entered for the customer.

      The following list defines the valid Pricing Level Type options; you will notice that within each Pricing Level Type, reference is made to the Pricing Level field:

      • + Min Level - this is the starting break point for Quantity Break pricing. The Customer receives the Quantity Break Level price indicated and all higher break levels. For example, you enter a Minimum Level of 2. The Customer orders a Product that has 3 Quantity Break Levels. Level 1 starts at a quantity of 1 for $17.01, Level 2 starts at a quantity of 12 for $15.00, and Level 3 starts at a quantity of 144 for $14.00. When this Customer orders a quantity between 1 and 143, the Quantity Break Level 2 price is automatically selected. When an order of 144 or greater is entered, the Quantity Break Level 3 price is used. This Customer never receives the Quantity Break Level 1 price.

      • - Max Level - this is the maximum break point for Quantity Break pricing. The Customer receives the Quantity Break Level price indicated and all lower break levels. For example, you enter a Maximum Level of 2. The customer orders a Product that has 3 Quantity Break Levels. Level 1 starts at a quantity of 1 for $17.01, Level 2 starts at a quantity of 12 for $15.00, and Level 3 starts at a quantity of 144 for $14.00. When this Customer orders a quantity of 12 or greater, the Quantity Break Level 2 price is automatically selected. When an order of 1 to 11 is entered, the Quantity Break Level 1 price is used. This Customer never receives the Quantity Break Level 3 price.

      • # Only Level - the Customer ALWAYS receives the price associated with the Quantity Break Level entered, regardless of the quantity ordered. For example, you enter an Only Level of 2. The customer orders a Product that has 3 Quantity Break Levels. Level 1 starts at a quantity of 1 for $17.01, Level 2 starts at a quantity of 12 for $15.00, and Level 3 starts at a quantity of 144 for $14.00. When this Customer orders any quantity, the Quantity Break Level 2 price is automatically selected. This Customer never receives the Quantity Break Level 1 or 3 price.

      Note: For more information on Price List Rules as they relate to Pricing Levels, see point #9 in IM18 Product & Price List Rules.

    • Pricing Level - the Pricing Level field refers to the Quantity Break Level. Enter a value between 1 and 7 in this field. The pricing routine uses the Quantity Break Level in conjunction with the Pricing Level entered to determine the base price that is then compared to other possible prices (Specials, Flyers, etc.) in order to calculate the best price for the Sales Order.

    • Flyers Eligible - when 'Yes' is selected, the customer is eligible to receive Flyer prices. Flyers are set up in IM8. When 'No' is selected, the customer is not eligible to receive Flyer pricing.

    • Common Quote Eligible - when 'Yes' is selected, the customer is eligible for Common Quotes. Common Quotes are set up in IM18. When 'No' is selected, the customer is not eligible to receive Common Quote pricing.

  • In the Best Price Controls-Contracts and Best Price Controls-Specials sections are only available when you are set up for Best Price Controls in CC00/Support. If you are set up for Hierarchy Price Controls in CC00/Support, these sections are not available i.e. these sections are hidden from your view.

    iTopia applies 'best price' logic to price orders. A search through the pricing module is performed to find the best price available for this customer. The contract/special price lists and best price control flags in the customer's master file record (SU13) are examined to determine the best price.

    A customer may have multiple contract and/or special price lists assigned in SU13. The pricing routine starts at the top of the list and looks for a match for that product. If no match is found in the first price list, then the routine goes to the next price list, and so on.

    If there is a match and that price list type is 'contract', then the pricing routine checks the Best Price Controls-Contract flags to see if it should continue looking for a better price (possibly in another contract or special price list, flyer or quantity break price). If there is a match and that price list type is 'special', then the pricing routine checks the Best Price Controls-Special flags to see if it should continue looking for a better price (possible in another contract or special price list, flyer or quantity break price).

    How does Best Price Control work? Here are two examples that illustrate Best Price Control:

    • When Best Price Contracts are in effect, and Customer ABC has a Contract to buy Product 1001 for $5.50/ea as defined in IM18, the system can search through Common Quote pricing, Special pricing, Flyer pricing and Quantity Break Level pricing to find a better price, if all of the selections in the Best Price Controls-Contracts section are set to 'Yes'.

    • When Best Price Specials are in effect, and Customer ABC has a special quoted price to buy Product 2001 for $4.25/ea as defined in IM18, the system can search through Common Quote pricing, Special pricing, Flyer pricing and Quantity Break Level pricing to find a better price, if of the selections in the Best Price Controls-Specials section are set to 'Yes'.

    The following fields are available in the Best Price Controls-Contracts section and when set to 'Yes', are included in the best price search:

    • Check Contract Price-Contracts - if the Customer has a Contract price for the current Product on the Sales Order, the system searches to see whether a better price exists for the Product on another Contract.

    • Check Special Price-Contracts - if the Customer has a Contract price for the current Product on the Sales Order, the system searches to see whether a better price exists for the Product on a Special price list.

    • Check Common Quote Price-Contracts - if the Customer has a Contract price for the current Product on the Sales Order, the system searches to see whether the Common Quote price for the Product is a better price.

    • Check Flyer Price- Contracts - if the Customer has a Contract price for the current Product on the Sales Order, the system searches to see whether the Flyer price for the Product is a better price.

    • Check Master QB Price-Contracts - if the Customer has a Contract price for the current Product on the Sales Order, the system searches to see if there is a better Quantity Break Level price (from the Master Price List) for the Product.

    The following fields are available in the Best Price Controls-Specials section and when set to 'Yes', are included in the best price search:

    • Check Contract Price-Specials - if the Customer has a Special price for the current Product on the Sales Order, the system searches to see whether a better Contract price exist for the Product.

    • Check Special Price-Specials - if the Customer has a Special price for the current Product on the Sales Order, the system searches to see whether a better price exists for the Product on another Special price list.

    • Check Common Quote Price-Specials - if the Customer has a Special price for the current Product on the Sales Order, the system searches to see whether the Common Quote price for the Product is a better price.

    • Check Flyer Price-Specials - if the Customer has a Special price for the current Product on the Sales Order, the system searches to see if there is a better Flyer price for the Product.

    • Check Master QB Price-Specials - if the Customer has a Special price for the current Product on the Sales Order, the system searches to see if there is a better Quantity Break Level price (from the Master Price List) for the Product.
