Creating Price Lists in Training Units

You can create price lists in the following:

A training unit is a way of costing a training activity not in monetary terms. For example, you might want to express the cost of training activities in trainer time. You, or your supervisor, might have defined the training unit as Half an Hour, so that a full day's training activity costs 16 training units, at ten pounds per unit.

If you want to express prices in training units (including Half an Hour, if appropriate), you can define types of training unit as values for the QuickCode Type TRAINING_UNIT.

How Do You Use Training Units?

You use training units, for example, if a customer wants to buy 100 hours of trainer time.

To do this, first you create a price list that expresses the cost of training units in trainer time, and define the value in monetary terms. In our example, this is Half an Hour at ten pounds per unit.

You also create a finance header of the type Prepurchase Payment for that customer.

The next thing that you need to do is to create an enrollment agreement (of the type Pre-Purchase) based on the price list you created. You need to do this so that you can charge a customer using training units. You enter the number of units that you want. In our example, this is 16 (as the unitary amount). Oracle Training Administration can now calculate the amount from the number of units and the price per unit.

The tasks you need to perform to set up and use a price list in training units is shown in Figure 1 - 3.
