Description:
USCG requires a mechanism to override the MAC valuations, such that all stock within a defined group defaults to the same price during issuance.
Recommended:
The catalog LIN/TAMCN screen should be utilized to allow for a default price to be applied to all stock numbers under the associated LINTAMCN grouping. In the LIN/TAMCN add and edit process add a field to the draw for Average Price (feel free to update this). When issuing gear if the stock number is assigned to a LIN/TAMCN with this field set then the price reflected in the process to match this value. If none is provided then the annual MAC will be utilized when available, otherwise default to the unit price. To facilitate quicker turn around on establishing these groups and prices the LIN/TAMCN process should also be updated to allow for the selection of multiple stock numbers to be associated to the LIN/TAMCN during or after the time it is established. This will prevent the catalogers from needing to assign the LIN/TAMCN to each stock number one at a time through the Stock Number AUD.
Benefits:
Improves pricing consistency by ensuring all stock numbers associated with the same LIN/TAMCN default to a common issue price when appropriate, eliminating pricing discrepancies across like items. This solution also reduces catalog maintenance effort by allowing catalogers to establish pricing at the LIN/TAMCN level rather than the individual stock number
