Price Biasing
Overview
Price biasing - implemented mainly for ensuring that any overrides payable by the supplier can be considered during the Dynamic Markups selection process .
Business Value :
- Customizable - The price biasing feature allows the creation of various agreements, each with unique biasing settings across different distribution levels.
- Optimized - This feature uses a refined rate selection process based on the “Biased Price”, as opposed to the traditional “Marked-up Price”.
- Explanatory - We’ve added a dump ("DynMarkupDumpWithPrices.csv") with all the required data that will be written along with all other dumps of the session .
This enhancement aids in thoroughly reviewing the selection process, ensuring the most suitable package is chosen and reflected in the API response.

Explained
If you set a 2 percent bias for Supplier X, that discount is used only in the internal price-selection logic. It won’t change the final price or the markup, just how the system evaluates and chooses the best option output of the Dynamic Markup Feature.
