How to Use Special Pricing Agreements (SPA)

You're a distributor, and you have sophisticated inventory control needs. There are many ways to improve your operational controls — and your bottom-line profitability. Using Special Pricing Agreements (SPA) is one of them.

xTuple's Distribution Edition was designed by experienced distributors, like me, specifically for the electrical, HVAC, plumbing and industrial wholesale distribution market, and it offers a fully-integrated end-to-end software system for companies like yours with more sophisticated inventory control needs.

To help you learn more, I've created two short videos about the  xWD Special Pricing Agreement (SPA) package for xTuple ERP Distribution Edition.

  1. The first video focuses especially on how to locate the package, how to run the update manager, and how to apply user privileges: Installing SPA in xTuple ERP
  2. The second video illustrates the process for importing Special Pricing Agreement (SPA) files into xTuple ERP, and you’ll see the basics for properly using and applying sample SPA data, plus how the sample data can be applied to contracts, reports, and sales orders: Using SPA files in xTuple ERP
