Note: The PL and PLQBD codes indicate that a general discount percentage has been found that has been entered on the purchase line. Next to this code is another code, which could be 'PQBP', 'PBP' or 'P'. This additional code indicates the origin of the sum used as the purchase price on the purchase line. A discount by itself is not enough, as you also need to select the sum on which the discount must be calculated.

The codes in the Specification field are followed by a further indication of the price data used. For example, next to the 'C' (Purchase contract) you will see the contract code used for determining the price.
