    Ribbon Flag Options

    Appears only if 'Enable Maintenance of Ribbon Flag' above is ticked. You can upload and delete the ribbon flags assignable to products in Product Maintenance. BPD contains several default ribbon flags. You can also add custom ones here. See Product Ribbons for more information. 

    Contract Ribbon Flag Options

    Enable configuration of ribbon options based on product price codes. Price codes display different price levels for different customer types that have been set up in the ERP. Customers that qualify for a price code will see this set of prices. Contract ribbons allow you to use a different ribbon flag against products within a price code. You can also add a contract type to a price code so that a ribbon flag displays only for customers with the price code and contract type, e.g., if you want to flag an even more special price for certain customers . These flags can be overridden at a product level. 

    NOTE - A ribbon flag set here for a price code/contract type will override any standard ribbon flags for qualifying customers.   


    To add a specific ribbon for a price code that applies only to a customer type:

    1. in Price Code, enter the price code. 
    2. In Contract Type, if a Customer is further differentiated by a contract type, enter this. 
    3. In Contract Ribbon Filename, to upload the ribbon to display for this , click Select or Upload Image.

    1. Scroll up to Feature Options and ensure Enable Contract Ribbon Overrides is ticked.

    2. Scroll back down to Contract Ribbon Options.
    3. For the ribbon you want to add the product exception, click Edit Product Override.

    5. In Product Code, enter the code of the product to exclude.
    6. In Filename, click Select or Upload Image and select the ribbon.
