Price lists

In tracezilla you can create price lists for purchasing and sales and relate it to a group of customers or the individual customer/supplier.

First, the price list is created, and then prices are entered per SKU.

 

 

TIP

You can create supplier- and customer-specific price lists directly from the partner by ticking Create price list.

When created automatically, the price list gets a reference code after the partner number and an automatically generated alphanumeric code. The price list is named after the company name (partner name) and date of creation. The price list is created according to the selected default currency of the partner.

More about price lists

When a SKU is added to an order, tracezilla will automatically retrieve the price from a price list. tracezilla is looking for:

  1. whether a price list is associated to the partner
  2. whether a price has been entered for the SKU in the associated price list
  3. whether there is a fallback price list
  4. or if a specific price list is not associated, whether there is a global price list

When a price is retrieved automatically, the name of the price list will appear.

 

 

Updating prices in the price list

Do you need to update all the prices in a price list according to a certain percentage? For example all retail prices increase by 2%?

Then you can make use of tracezilla’s import template:

  1. Click Sales in the top menu and select Price lists.
  2. Search for the price list that contains prices that need to be updated. Click the price list.
  3. In the field Hide, you can select None, Price missing or Has price to narrow down the relevant SKUs.
  4. Click Import at the top right. Select Get Import Template in the dialog window.
  5. Open the spreadsheet on your computer.
  6. Now you can make calculations of the prices. Please note that the prices of the import template cannot be uploaded with underlying calculations. Make sure to Copy and Paste as values (see below).
  7. Save the file on your computer.
  8. Click Upload in tracezilla and select the file from the desktop.

Example of calculation

1) In column F of the import template, row 2, enter a formula so that all prices increase by 2%.

=$E2*1,02

If you would like to deduct a percentage, you can also do so in a price list via the import template.

To deduct 15%, use the following formula

=$E2*0,85

2) By entering $, the formula will follow the rows in column E, i.e. E3, E4, E5 etc.

3) In the lower right corner of the cell, the formula can now be dragged down so that it is applied at all prices.

4) Select all the prices in column F and press Ctrl C to copy. Move the mouse to cell G2. Press Ctrl Shift V (Paste as values).

5) Select all the prices in column E and F. Right-click and select Delete> Delete Cell Left so that the update prices from column G are moved to column E.

Save the file on your computer and then it is ready to be uploaded into tracezilla again.

If the updated prices are to appear in another price list that replaces the previous, the name of the price list must be changed in column E, row 1 to the name of the new price list.
