Global Price Change

Overview

The Global Price change screen allows for quick and easy changes to the selling price of inventory items. Items can be selected for price changing based on the item's super category, category, class, or item number range. Each item that falls within the criteria is displayed along with the current selling price and a field for entering the new price. Prices for all displayed items can be changed by using a percentage or dollar amount change. Prices of items can also be changed individually. 
Note: The price of inventory items are not actually changed until the Apply to Inventory button on the toolbar is clicked. A report is printed showing the items with the old and new prices.

Once you have set your prices you can press the "apply to inventory" icon (lightning Bolt) on the tool bar to apply changes to the database. A report will be printed with the same information as is displayed on the screen. 

If all of the new prices are correct for the items on the report, click OK when the system asks "OK to apply prices to Inventory?" This will update the inventory. Selecting NO will not update inventory and further changes can be made. Exiting the screen without using the Apply to Inventory button will cause any changes to be lost and inventory is not updated with any new prices.Â
