Set Item Prices window

(Select column)
Click this column to mark an item if you wish to use the Pricing Shortcuts window to change prices for the item or a group of items. A mark will appear in the column next to the item. If you remove the mark, click the column again and the mark will disappear. Click the gray box at the top of this column to mark all the items in the list. Click again to clear all marks from the Print column.

List of items you sell
The list displays all items you sell and provide -- in other words, the items for which you selected I Sell This Item in the Item Information window. For each item, the item number, name, average cost or last purchase price and current selling price are displayed.

Current price column
This column displays the current selling price for one selling unit of measure of each item. You can change the prices that are displayed in this column individually, or you can use the Pricing Shortcuts window to change the prices of a number of items at the same time.

If you'd like to use a calculator, select the plus sign ("+"), the asterisk ("*"), the equal sign ("=") or the space bar on your keyboard to launch the Calculator window.

Print button
Click this button to print the Price Analysis report.

Shortcuts button
Click this button to open the Pricing Shortcuts window, which allows you to change the prices of all your items, or only those items you've marked using the Shortcut column.

Last Cost button
Click this button to view the most recent cost of each item in the list. (The Last Cost column replaces the Avg. Cost column.)

For items for which you selected I Buy This Item in the Item Information window, the last price you paid to purchase those items is displayed. For items for which you didn't select I Buy This Item, but for which you selected I Inventory This Item in the Item Information window, the last cost that was used when you transferred those items using the Transfer Inventory window or sold those items in the Sales window is displayed.

If this selection is marked and you click the Shortcuts button, the prices you change can be based on the last purchase prices of the selected items.

Avg Cost button
Click this button to view the average cost of each inventoried item in the list. (The Avg. Cost column replaces the Last Cost column.)

Average cost is calculated by dividing the current value of each item's quantities by the number of items on hand.

If this selection is marked and you click the Shortcuts button, the prices you change can be based on the average cost of the selected items.

OK button
Click this button to accept the entries you've made and close the window.
