Entering pricing level information for an item

If you set different selling prices for different types of customers and for sales of greater quantities of an item, you can set up pricing levels for the item using the Selling Details view of the Item Information window. When you create an item layout that includes the item, the selling price that appears automatically on the sale reflects the item's pricing level for the quantity you've entered on the sale, as well as for the pricing level of the customer card you've entered.

Here are some facts about MYOB AccountEdge's pricing levels:

• You can set a selling price at each level that you'll charge for the same item bought in larger quantities, and you can specify those quantities.
• You can set a price for each type of customer or at each pricing level.
• You can set an item's selling prices for up to six pricing levels.
• The default labels for pricing levels are "A" through "F," but you can label your pricing levels in any way you like using the Custom Field and List Names window found under the Setup menu.
• You can assign a pricing level to each of your customer cards using the Credit Terms window.
• You can copy the pricing levels that you've entered for another item into the item record you're creating.

Before you can enter pricing level information for an item, you must enter its selling details using the top part of the Selling Details tab.

Note: Be sure not to undercharge when using pricing levels and volume customer discounts

If you enter pricing level information for an item, be sure to take into account your customer's volume discount so you don't inadvertently undercharge for some items. For example, if you assign the "wholesale" pricing level to a customer card so prices at that level only will appear on item layouts for that customer, don't enter your company's wholesale discount in the Volume Discount% field found in the Selling Details view of the Card Information window. Any volume discount you enter for the customer will be subtracted from the item's "wholesale" price.
