Special Pricing

Special-Pricing

 

The Special Pricing feature allows salespeople to modify a customers special price file outside of the order entry process.

 

When a special price item's Unit Cost or Bid Prices are changed in the Electronic Order Pad (EOP) Special Pricing feature the changes get imported back into entrée. In entrée the customer's special price items or bid prices will be updated using the imported values from EOP.

 

This feature is enabled in the entrée.NET Settings tab by the System Administrator. If the feature is not enabled it will not display in the main menu for the Electronic Order Pad.

 

In entrée.NET Settings Tab Options in the Electronic Order Pad section check option #120 "Allow salesperson to access the Edit Special Pricing feature." to enable the "Special Pricing" feature and the display of the menu option in the main menu.

 

From here a salesperson can add or remove items and edit pricing based on the settings of entrée.NET Electronic Order Pad section options #90 "Allow salesperson to create and edit customer special pricing" and #91 "Allow salesperson to edit customer Bid 1 and Bid 2 pricing."
