Suppliers & Supplier Prices of an Item

Viewing and Managing Suppliers for an Item in pixi

In Item Management in pixi, you can view the suppliers assigned to an item and maintain item-specific supplier details. You can configure various supplier settings and define purchasing conditions for individual items. These conditions are used for generating Purchase Order Suggestions.

Suppliers are either imported into pixi together with the item import or created manually. In the item detail view, you can access the list of assigned suppliers.


Viewing Suppliers for an Item

To view the suppliers assigned to an item, open the Item Detail View in either the pixi Web Application or the desktop Item Info interface, and click the Suppliers tab. This tab displays a list of suppliers where you can review and compare item-specific supplier information. You can sort the list in ascending or descending order by clicking the header of any column.

The setting "Show Supplier Item No. and Purchase Price of MGS supplier" (in the pixi Control Center > Database Settings tab > General folder) determines which value is displayed for the supplier item number in modules such as Stock or Goods Receipt > Items tab:

  • If this setting is enabled (ON), the supplier item number from the supplier MGS is always shown for an item.

  • If the setting is disabled (OFF), the supplier item number of the most recently updated supplier for the item is displayed.

Note: If you use an internal supplier item number (e.g., ID OXID), please make sure to enable this setting (ON).


Adding a Supplier to an Item

  1. Open the pixi web application and go to Item Management.

  2. Open the desired item and click Add Supplier in the Suppliers list (for this item).

  3. Select the desired supplier from the dropdown list.

  4. Enter the item’s barcode in the Barcode field.

  5. (Optional) Enter your supplier’s item number in the Supplier Item No. field.

  6. Enter the purchase price of the item from this supplier in the Purchase Price (PP) field.

  7. Click Add.

  8. Click Save to apply the changes.


Changing the Supplier Price

There are several ways to change or edit the Supplier Price for a specific Item:

  • Web pixi > Items > tab Suppliers: Manage item-specific purchase conditions.

  • Via the Item Import, if the setting BMECat, import supplier prices is enabled in the pixi Control Center (see below).

  • In Goods Receipt:
    If the Supplier Price is changed in a Goods Receipt document, this overrides the list price of the Item in the item master data.

    Please note:
    The list price of an Item is not overwritten if an additional discount was applied in the Purchase Order.
    The Supplier Price of an item is only updated if the value for EK in the Goods Receipt document is modified — not if only the value in the column Final Price differs.


Item Prices

The supplier price for an item can be checked in the pixi Web application > Item Management > Items >Item Prices > Prices for This Item. This tab is shown when Multi-currency is enabled. The grid gives an overview of the different item prices by currency. The information includes Gross Price, Net Price and when the price was last Modified.
