Using WMS Pricing and Price Levels

Updated over a year ago

Description

The following support note describes how to use WMS pricing.

  • All sell pricing from the Accounting software file will be ignored. This includes price levels and, quantity price breaks, customer price levels.

  • The Customer's Volume discount is still read from Accounting software.

  • MYOB allows 6 price levels, WMS allows 26

  • Base Sell Prices are still populated from the Accounting system.

  • The additional levels allow pricing to be set for each foreign currency or another pricing group, such as wholesale, distributor, and retail customers.

  • MYOB price level replication to WMS only works for Premier 19 (If the Customer is using MYOB price levels and has NOT switched to WMS pricing yet)

  • MYOB AR users need to import or add Price Levels manually in WMS

Workflow Restrictions

  • If you cannot update the price levels, please verify your access levels in WMS. Get a superuser to look at your access rights for Manage Price Levels > It has to be full access.
