RM577424 - Dynamics 365 Project Operations: Extend price overrides to category and material

Project Operations price lists support three price types — role, expense category, and product/material — but only role prices currently support date-effective overrides. This feature extends date-effective price overrides to expense category and material prices, so you can schedule a future or time-bound price change for a category or material the same way you do for a role, without creating a separate, context-specific price list. The system honors the override when it prices a transaction, so the effective price reflects the override in force on the transaction date. The feature also aligns other points where the three price types diverge where feasible, with date-effective overrides as the primary deliverable. Unit-group conversions for category and material, custom pricing dimensions for category and material, and full time-phasing of prices are not included in this release.

How to enable: You configure overrides on the price list, the same way you set role-price overrides today, so pricing administrators and makers manage all three price types in one place. Overrides are stored in the existing Date-Effective Price Overrides table, so the feature is expected to reuse that mechanism; review any plug-ins or default pricing logic for category and material before you adopt it.
