Operations Menu - Update Prices

This command allows you to update the Cost Prices of the Items used in the current Goods Receipt. You can also use it to update any Price Lists that are calculated by adding a margin to the Items' Cost Prices.

The Cost Price affected is that shown on the 'Costs' card of the Item record. Cost Prices for Purchase Items are unaffected by this function: you can update these using the 'Update Purchase Items' Maintenance function in the Purchase Orders module.

You should only use the function once you have saved the Goods Receipt by clicking the [Save] button in the Button Bar. It is not necessary to approve the Goods Receipt.

Selecting the function opens the dialogue box shown below. Complete it as described and click the [Run] button in the Button Bar. Price changes will then be made, as directed.

Goods Receipt
This field provides a reminder of the number of the Goods Receipt from which the changed prices are taken. It cannot be changed.

Price Lists
Paste Special    Price List register, Pricing module
Specify a particular Price List whose prices are to be recalculated by the function. If left blank, all Price Lists that include Items on the Goods Receipt will be affected.

Only those Price Lists that are calculated by adding a margin to the Items' Cost Prices will be affected.

Items
