If the SKU code does correspond to an existing SKU data the table with price records will display SKU name, otherwise the SKU name will remain blank. "Quantity" represents the quantity tier of given SKU. "List price" represents the base price for a SKU, whereas "Sale price" (which is optional) represents discounted list price.
