Suggest Res. Price Chg.(Price) Batch Job

Checks whether there are alternative unit prices for resources in the Resource Price table on the basis of the existing prices in the table. When the batch job has been completed, you can see the result in the Resource Price Changes window. You can also use the batch job Suggest Res. Price Chg. (Res.) to create suggestions for new prices.

The batch job only creates suggestions; it does not process the changes. If you are satisfied with the suggestions and want to implement them, you can insert them in the Resource Price table by using the Implement Res. Price Change batch job.
