Use the Global Edit Form command to apply group-specific pricing for different material dimensions. For example,
when updating pricing for groups of HSS shapes, the shapes that are either smaller or larger
than the commonly used dimensions may need different pricing updates. By creating and using
pricing forms, you can update each group of HSS shapes accordingly. You can create one
pricing form that contains multiple shapes whose pricing you want to update in the current
supplier warehouse, or pricing data set.
Creating pricing forms becomes even more
efficient when you update the pricing from a requisition or a purchase order, as you
can update multiple shapes and dimensions at one go. For more information, see Update pricing information.
