This column displays the percentage over cost that determines the level price of the item. If a level price is derived as a percentage amount over the real, market or base cost, it can be adjusted using the following procedure:
1. | Select the % Over Cost field, of the level to adjust and press the Enter key |
2. | Enter the new markup percentage for the level and press the Enter key. The value in the Unit Price field will now be updated to reflect the new unit price of the level. |
entrée will now maintain the markup percentage over the assigned cost method (real, base, or market) of the level whenever the cost of the item is changed.
•The % over cost is applied to the cost of the item based on the formula assigned to the price level.
