Commodities

If the Load Commodity Lines for Adjustment action was selected on the Header then the Commodities tab on the Renewal (RN) transaction lists all commodity lines that have been loaded from the award transaction This tab allows individual line adjustments to be made. This tab does not contain any required fields to submit the RN transaction to Final. If commodity lines have been loaded from the referenced award transaction, then changes can be made to fields that allow edits.

When creating the modified Master Agreement or Contract, the Renew Agreements batch process will also take into the account the Inactive Line flag and create the Commodity Lines on the modified Master Agreements or Contracts based on the Price Adjustment Indicator as follows:

If the Price Adjustment Indicator is set to Prices Firm or Price Escalation Percentage, any Agreement Commodity Line where the Inactive Line flag is true will remain unchanged and the flag will be set to true on the Modification MA or CT Transaction.
If the Price Adjustment Indicator is Line Adjustment Required:

If the Inactive Line flag is no longer set to True on the RN Transaction for a specific MA or CT Commodity Line, the requested adjustments will be made to the line and the Inactive Line flag will be unchecked on the associated MA or CT Commodity Line when creating the modification Master Agreement or Contract.
If the Inactive Line flag is set to True (where it previously was not) on the RN Transaction for a specific MA or CT Commodity Line, the Inactive Line flag will be set to true on the Modification MA or CT and the quantity will be modified down to zero.
If the Inactive Line flag is still set to True on the RN Transaction for a specific MA or CT Commodity Line, the Inactive Line flag will remain unchanged and the flag will be set to true on the modification MA or CT transaction.

Special note concerning renewing a Catalog Line: If an MA Commodity Line with a Line Type of Catalog is marked inactive, when the MA line is renewed the Inactive Line flag may be unchecked on the RN and the Renewal Process will create a modification MA with the Inactive Line flag unchecked. However, the associated catalog records will not be reactivated; in order to reactivate the catalog records, the catalog will need to be reloaded.
