The combined use of these two features allows for very strict control over pricing.
The security option Change Price Level allows locking price level changes. So, if a customer is nominated as Price Level 1, that stock will always be sold to them at that price level, effectively stopping users changing price levels at a job level.
Tick/untick this security option under Tools > Security > Jobs to enable/disable this option for individual security groups.
The second security option with respect to selling price is Price Break Movement Down. This allows setting a unit price, as well as volume/quantity price breaks for each price level, but provides the option to restrict which staff members can provide which quantity break discounts or movements.
 |
Each stock price level can be set with a unit price and up to four additional volume price breaks. |
Sample Price Level set as follows:
Break1 |
Break 2 |
Break 3 |
Break 4 |
Break 5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
1 off |

$100.00 |
