If your system can do automatic product file price updates (e.g. if you are an Office Brands dealer), this is the procedure you need to follow to make best use of automatic price updates.

Note

Dealers normally do not have the time to setup their automatic price updates. We suggest you invest in a few support hours and get Readysell to set this up for you. This will result in some sell prices changing in ways you don't expect and will require some followup. But our experience is the task is too large for most dealers to handle themselves.

...

 If you decide to get Readysell to help you with thise this process we will:

  • Flag all products where sell price will vary by more than 100% to not update cost or sell prices or units from Office Brands
  • Post a first price book run to line up your data with Office Brands
  • Run some reports showing you the changes to your sell prices
  • Turn on automatic price updates
  • Print your first batch of product labels if required for any retail stock. The user guide explains how to print product labels only for products where sell prices have changed from a specified date, see:
  • The timing of automatic updates and retail label printing is critical if your business has a retail area. You have to know which nights are going to post automatic price updates. So that you can generate labels for any price changes quickly the next morning and get them onto the shelves before customers start buying stock. Otherwise you risk having out of date retail pricing on your shelves that do not agree to the actual sell price in the system. It is not acceptable to have price labels on your shelves that show a different sell price to the price changed to customers.
