Overview

 

The Miscellaneous page enables you to configure other settings for document lines within the Supplier Portal.

 

The "Unit Price Decimal Places" and "Quantity Decimal Places" fields are pre-populated and should not need to be changed for the majority of Supplier Portal users.

 

The Miscellaneous page looks like this:

Data Entry

 

Misc_Language This field is a drop-down list of languages. Select the language that your organisation usually uses. System generated communications will be in this language unless the language preference of the addressee is known.

 

unit_price_decimal This field is a drop-down list containing the values 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4. It is used to define the number of decimal places applied to the unit price of document lines created or displayed within the Supplier Portal.

For most suppliers 2 decimal places for prices will be appropriate e.g. widgets are priced at 4.23 each.

But for some suppliers another setting may be more suitable e.g. gas priced at 0.1098 per cubic meter.

 

NOTE: The settings applied do not affect the display of line or document values within the Supplier Portal. They will always display decimals appropriate for the document currency e.g. 2 decimal places for GBP.

 

qty_decimal This field is a drop-down list containing the values 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4. It is used to define the number of decimal places applied to product units of document lines created or displayed within the Supplier Portal.

For most suppliers 0 decimal places for quantities will be appropriate e.g. widgets: quantity 10, unit Each.

But for some suppliers another setting may be more suitable e.g. a catering supplier may wish to use 1 decimal place allowing for bacon: quantity 7.5, unit Kg.

 

 

NOTE: As you enter data in field, additional help is displayed in the area at the bottom of the page e.g.
