You can set the default selling prices of the items you sell using the Set Item Prices window. Then, if required, you can change the price at the point of sale, which overrides the default price for that sale only. 

 

To change the price of an item
  1. Go to the Inventory command centre and click Set Item Prices. The Set Item Prices window appears.


    If an item is not listed, it means that you haven’t selected the I Sell This Item option on the Profile tab of the Item Information window
  2. From the Basis for Calculation list, select whether you want to show the average cost or last cost of each item. This will help you compare the selling prices of your items to their cost.

    Select..If you want to view...
    Average Costthe total on-hand cost of each item divided by the number of units you have on hand.
    Last Costthe most recent purchase price for the item.
  3. Click in the Current Price column of an item and enter a new price. Do this for each item price you want to change. You can enter unit prices with up to four decimal places. On your invoices, the unit price is multiplied by the quantity sold and the result is rounded to two decimal places.
  4. Click OK.

To update the prices of multiple items at once
  1. Go to the Inventory command centre and click Set Item Prices. The Set Item Prices window appears.

  2. Click in the select column (   ) next to the items that require a price update.
  3. Click Shortcuts. The Pricing Shortcuts window appears.
  4. Indicate how you want to calculate the new prices and apply rounding. For example, if you want a markup of 30% over the average cost of your items, select the  Percent Markup  option, type 30 in the adjacent field and select Average Cost as the basis of calculation.
  5.  If you want to: 
  • update only the items you selected in step 2, clickUpdate Selected Items.
  • update the price of all items, click Update All Items.

There's more ways to update the Item Selling Price in bulk if the options in the Pricing Shortcuts window don't suit you.

For example if you want to increase the Selling Price by 10% then the way to do this is to open and modify an exported file using Microsoft Excel. Watch this video to learn how it's done.
