What are Price Plan Adjustment Runs?
Price Plan Adjustment Runs are used to adjust price plan rates whenever the VAT Rate of at least one of the product included in the Price Plan changes (either increased or decreased).
Runs will create a new version of the affected Price Plans rate and calculate the new base rate for products whose VAT Rate has changed.
