| Use this session to define the matrix sequence. The sequences that you define in this session are used to classify the matrix definitions. For example, for the Sales Price matrix type,: Sequence 1 with matrix definition Cust linked to it refers to sold-to business partners. Sequence 2 with matrix definition Prlist linked to it refers to price lists. Performance aspects Redundant matrix sequences could affect system performance and database growth.

Fields | Description
Matrix Type | An entity used to define the type of a Matrix Definition and to classify the matrix attributes. The following matrix types are available in the Pricing Control module: Sales Price. SOL Discount. SO Total Discount. Purchase Price. POL Discount. PO Total Discount. Transfer Price. Line Promotion. Order Promotion. Client Freight Rate. Carrier Freight Rate. For each type, ERP LN generates a selection of attributes. In a matrix type, the combination of a maximum of six attributes identifies the matrix definition.
Level | This field refers to the discount level, as set in the Pricing Parameters (tdpcg0100m000) session. Note Discount levels are only used for discount matrices.
Sequence | Use this field to set the order for the matrix sequence and to classify the matrix definitions.
Effective Date | The first date on which the matrix sequence is valid. The default effective date is equal to the system date.
Expiry Date | The expiry date of the matrix sequence. If this field is not filled, the matrix sequence is infinitely valid.
Matrix Def | The matrix definition code defines the group of elements (matrix attributes) that a Pricing Control matrix uses to determine a price, discount, promotion, or freight rate. For example, imagine you are a furniture vendor and you decide to maintain your sales prices based on two elements: The specific item you sell. The way to handle payments. In this case, the matrix type is Sales Price, the matrix definition is Furni (this name is user-definable), and the matrix attributes are Item and Payment Method.
