   <GeneralSection>
      <Paragraph>A product variant cost
		structure is calculated for each <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#100011" role="glossary">option set</Link>. This calculation
		is based on the generic sales price list defined for the generic item linked to
		the <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#100011" role="glossary">option set</Link>, or based on the
		chosen product variant options for the relevant option set. During this
		process, product variant options are automatically inherited from higher levels
		in the generic product structure.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>The final sales price
		for a <Link href="/baanerp/td/glossary/glossary#ProducVarian_td" role="glossary">product variant</Link> is
		determined based on the various sales price components in the <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#100012" role="glossary">sales price structure</Link> for
		the product variant.</Paragraph>

      <Paragraph>For each <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#100011" role="glossary">option set</Link>, the required
		quantity is determined by LN based on the generic product structure and
		the chosen options for product features. The generated sales prices in the
		sales price structure of the option set are then multiplied by the required
		quantity for the option set.</Paragraph>

      <Paragraph>If no sales price
		structure is defined for the first option set of the product variant (option
		set 0), or if the sales price of the first option set is 0 and the configured
		product is a <Link href="/baanerp/ti/glossary/glossary#Phantom_ti" role="glossary">phantom</Link> item, LN automatically
		generates a sales price plan for the standard components on the first bill of
		material level of the configured product variant structure. A discount
		percentage is also determined for the generic components based on the first
		bill of material level of the sales price information.</Paragraph>
