Accolent ERP allows many different pricing elements for maximum pricing flexibility. One of these pricing elements is Special Prices. All Special Prices discounts are added after and on top of discounts other than Contract Prices and Promotional Discounts. The following examples illustrate how Special Prices work with Contract Prices and Price Lists. See the Accolent ERP Pricing Flow Chart for more details.
