Adding Levels
To change the price levels, first select inventory maintenance from the menu and enter the item number. When the item is on the screen it will appear as in the item AIRC. Depending on the modifications installed there will either be a choice for "More" or "Levels" at the bottom. ("More" is used for multiple maintenance options).

Editing Levels
Once selected the price levels will be displayed on the screen. To change one press "E" to edit and it will prompt for the level to change. Enter the number of the level to change and the proper line will be highlighted. Then first block is the level of sale. As in the ACCPAC standard programs, this is the minimum quantity that must be ordered or sold in order to use the price at this level. Each of the price levels can be used in one of two ways. Either the actual price can be entered, or the discount can be used and the levels will be determined automatically based on the level one price. If the discount method is used and the level one price is changed, all the other levels are changed too. This method makes it very easy to maintain prices at multiple levels. If the actual price is used, the levels are completely independent of changes to the primary level. During sales the levels will appear no different from the standard programs. All processing occurs in the background.

Mass Price Change
When a price change is entered it will affect only the top level price. Other price levels will only be affected if the discount off standard price method above is used.
