When you receive new vendor data, you need to rebuild the following cache records:

Rebuilding Price Sheet/Discount Class Cache Records

Use the Rebuild Price Sheet/Discount Class Cache Utility to delete old price sheet formulas from the Eclipse Product file. For example, if a vendor gives you disks with new price sheets and discount classes, run this utility to update price sheets and discount classes in your Eclipse Product file.

To run the Rebuild Price Sheet/Discount Class Cache utility:

  1. From the Tools menu, select Rebuild Price Sheet/Discount Class Cache to display the Rebuild Price Sheet - Discount Class Cache Record(s) screen.

Note: You can also access this screen from the Tools > Product Data Warehouse (PDW)> PDW Export Maintenance menu by selecting Rebuild Price Sheet/Discount Class Cache.

  1. In the Enter Price Lines field, enter all price lines that need their price sheets and discount classes updated. Leave this field blank to rebuild price sheets and discount classes for all price lines.

  2. From the File menu, select Begin to run the update or use the Schedule hot key to schedule the update, and exit the screen.

Note: If you have already scheduled the rebuild utility to run, use the Begin option to run the utility at the scheduled time.
