Getting Started
1. To set the prices for your catalog, click Content from the top navigation menu, then choose Prices.
3. On the Price Lists page select Manage Everyday Normal Prices.
4. Once in the price management console, choose the following method of how to manage prices:
-
Import pricing from file allows you to upload a custom spreadsheet.
-
Base Rule pricing is considered “global”, and the pricing rules apply to all products in all categories.
-
Category Rules allow prices to be set for a specific category or subcategory of items e.g. Beds.
-
Product Rules work the same way that category rules do, the key difference is that the changes made in product rules only apply to specifically chosen SKUs.
Editing Base Rules
1. To edit the Base Rule. Click Edit Base Rule, and the following screen will appear.
-
To Show retail prices switch to Blue. To Hide retail prices switch to Gray.
-
When setting the global base rule, always select Cost-Based from the dropdown. The other option is "fixed price", which will be relevant when setting category or product rules.
-
Choose between multiplier, gross margin, or markup
Multiplier - multiplies the wholesale/landed cost with the factor entered into the field
Gross Margin - the percentage difference between the selling price and the profit
Markup - the percentage difference between the actual cost and the selling price -
If desired, the rounding tool dropdown will round the price up or down to a specific number.
-
Once completed adjusting the retail and/or list pricing, click Done in the bottom right corner. This will save any changes.
Please Note: The List Pricing works the same as the retail pricing. As a general rule, always ensure the list multiplier will result in a higher cost than the retail multiplier.
