How to setup item price levels per customer? Entering A/R Beginning Balances

We're currently working on A/R invoicing. 

How do you setup item price levels per customer. Our item price levels vary from customer group to customer group.

    Hi Rosemary,

    Sorry for the confusion. What i was trying to get across is we sell solution services. We don't currently keep up with inventory since it's intangible as a service.  Each service we offer has a different price, and in some cases, the price for that service is discounted and etc... If that makes more sense!

    Kimberly,

    I find this quite interesting, you are offering a service with no true inventory and the service is offered to more than company. Each of which may have different customers.

    Wouldn't the respective companies, who has the physical inventory, require some sort of activity on their inventory?

    How adequately would the AR Invoicing accomplish that?

    If you are not real interested in all the control and management of inventory - then selling line items that are configured in Item Master as non-inventory items might be the way to go.

    No painful over ride of Quantity - no fake purchase orders - much easier

    However I do not recall I'd you still have the full Pricing model available to you if you are using non-inventory items.

    Honestly no, would you say the sales order processing module is the best way to go for a service company who doesn't have true inventory?

    Quite curious, any valid reason for considering "Invoicing" over "Sales Order Processing module" ?

    We're actually entering open A/R invoices that do have line items for beginning A/R balances.

    Kimberly,

    Initially, I have an important question. When you say A/R, do you precisely mean  (Transaction > Sales > Transaction Entry ) ?

    For that, there are no line items, and the concepts raised in this discussion are not relevant. For the pricing, you should be considering the Sales Order Processing module (Transaction > Sales > Sales Transaction Entry)

    We do have a common background about that, right ?

    Thanks for the help guys! Here's a few more questions...

    Based on both of your answers, we believe that extended pricing is probably the way for us to go.

    We're a solution company - and we sell services instead of inventory items.

    I went ahead and setup extended pricing but I'm still having problems  setting up items, their pricing, and connecting them to customers.  We also are trying to figure out what some definitions used in GP mean such as site id, class id, price sheets, price groups, and etc...

    We're really just trying to figure out the best way to input our A/R seeing that many of our clients have different service prices / price levels. Is there anymore detailed guidance or recommendations of any good training videos you guys could give us?

    Thanks so much!

    We have set up various combinations of Classes that our customers are part of - then in Item Maintenance we have Price Schedules that are matched to the class.

    This allows us to provide 'discount' from List price (or your choice) based on the Class and the Item.

    It is a simple way to make this work, but it does seem to work.

    I like the suggestion from Mahmoud for a more complex solution.  So depending on your needs you can get it done in the Core modules of GP at this time.
