## How to Configure Rate Selection in Receipt Register?
In this tutorial, we will learn how to automatically pick a predefined rate in the **Receipt Register** using the **Always Pick** configuration option in Logic ERP. This feature allows the system to automatically fetch rates from either the **Item Master** or the **Lot Master**, eliminating manual rate entry and ensuring pricing consistency.
***
### Objective of This Feature
* Automatically populate predefined item rates.
* Eliminate manual rate entry.
* Fetch rates from the Item Master or Lot Master.
* Ensure pricing consistency during Receipt Register transactions.
* Improve data entry speed and accuracy.
***
### Open Receipt Register Configuration
* Open the **Receipt Register Configuration** window.
* Navigate to the **Other Options** section.
* Locate the option labeled as:
> **"Always Pick"**
This option allows you to:
* Select the **Rate Type** to be picked automatically.
* Define the **Source** from which the rate will be retrieved.
***
### Example 1: Automatically Pick Purchase Rate from Item Master
**Configuration**
* Select **Purchase Rate** under **Always Pick**.
* Set the **Source** as **Item Rates**.
* Save the configuration.
#### Create a New Receipt Register Entry
* Initiate a **New Receipt Register** transaction.
* Select the required Item.
The system automatically populates the **Purchase Rate** using the rate defined in the **Item Master**.
#### Verify the Purchase Rate
* Open the **Item Master**.
* Search and select the same Item.
* Navigate to the **Pack Details** section.
* Open the **Item Rates** section.
**Result**
The Purchase Rate defined in the Item Master matches the rate automatically populated in the Receipt Register.
***
### Example 2: Automatically Pick MRP from Lot Master
**Configuration**
* Return to the configuration window.
* Change **Always Pick** to **MRP**.
* Set the **Source** as **Lot Master**.
* Save the configuration.
#### Create a New Receipt Register Entry
* Initiate a **New Receipt Register** transaction.
* Select the required Item.
* Choose the appropriate Lot.
#### Verify the Lot MRP
* Place the cursor on the **Lot Number** field.
* Press **F5**.
**Result**
* The **Lot Details** window opens, displaying the MRP assigned to the selected Lot.
* For example: **Lot MRP:** **1680**
* The same value is automatically populated in the Receipt Register.
***
### Key Benefits
* Automatically applies predefined rates.
* Reduces manual data entry.
* Ensures pricing consistency.
* Supports Item Master and Lot Master-based pricing.
* Improves transaction accuracy and efficiency.
***
### Best Practice Tips
* Keep Item Master and Lot Master rates updated before creating Receipt Register entries.
* Use **Item Rates** when pricing is maintained at the item level.
* Use **Lot Master** when pricing varies between different lots.
* Verify the selected rate source based on your business requirements.
***
### Final Outcome
The **Always Pick** feature in the Receipt Register Configuration enables Logic ERP to automatically fetch predefined rates from the **Item Master** or **Lot Master**. Depending on the selected rate type and source, the system populates the appropriate rate during transaction entry, ensuring faster processing, consistent pricing, and improved data accuracy.
