Mass Price Change

Application Overview

 

The Mass Price Change application allows you to modify the prices for a range of items.  The program will request a range of item numbers, a specific product category, the percentage of increase or decrease and whether you wish to update price codes in the Price Code file.  The program will then update the prices for all items in the Inventory Item File within the item range that also belong to the entered product category.

 

This enables you to easily adjust groups of prices so that you can respond quickly to price changes that affect product categories.
