Check Zero priced sales lines
Check for zero-priced sales lines and prevent accidental free sales.
Quite often businesses want to know why sales lines are set at zero price or need a check to help avoid customers receiving free of charge items when they are not supposed to.

Prerequisites
Sales processing set up.
Bevica Setup
Navigate to Bevica Setup, Pricing / Costing fasttab and set Activate Zero Sales Line Price Check. This then triggers you to create at least one Sales Line Reason Code which can be later used to confirm zero sales line prices. Sales Line Reason Codes can also be used to add an extra level of reporting as to why items are being sent to customers. Learn more: Sales Line Reason Codes
Zero price Sales Line checking is activated for these documents:
Sales Order
Sales Quote
Sales Invoice
Sales Blanket Order
Sales Documents
Once you have activated zero sales price line checking, when a sales document is released it will error on lines with zero Line Amount. To allow the order to be released you will need to add a Sales Line Reasons Code to these lines.
The Zero Price Check will not apply to Paid Reserve Withdrawal or Paid Reserve Duty Transfer orders.
Free of Charge Orders
Some orders will have many or all lines set to zero price deliberately, i.e. samples orders, orders for tastings. To avoid having to set a Sales Document Line Reason Code on every line you can set a Sales Document Code to override the check.
Search for, or go to Bevica Setup, Related, Operations, Sales Document Type Codes and set Allow Zero Item Price.
Item Setup
Items that never attract a sales price, e.g. point of sale items, loan items can be excluded from any sales line check by setting the Exclude from Zero Sales Price Check field found on the Prices and Sales fasttab of the item card.
