Price Book Runs
Overview
Price book runs are used to update products with the latest information, particularly sell prices and markups. Data is extracted from the price book, then reviewed, and finally posted to the product file.
Customers who are part of the Office National, Office Products Depot or O-NET buying groups will periodically receive updates to the price book from their head office through Readysell. You can see what new data has been received by going to Product Import Rules under the Administration menu. The price book may also be updated manually from spreadsheets and other sources.
