How To Use Catalog Price Roundup

CATALOG PRICE ROUNDUP:

This module will allow you to round up the A-F programmed pricing to the nearest “9” or “99” or any cent figure you would prefer. You should first program your A-F level pricing in the Catalog (A-F) Pricing Maintenance/Print module (explained below) before completing this module. When you use A-F Margin pricing, the system will display that pricing exactly as it is figured, i.e., 5.89 divided by .4 = 14.73. If you use this Roundup module, you can program the system to round up the 14.73 to 14.79 or 14.99. Any exact pricing programmed in the A-F Pricing module will also roundup if it is not already entered that way. This module only needs to be programmed once for each Product Code to update all Branches.

When you enter the Catalog Price Roundup module, the screen will appear as follows:


The cursor will be positioned at the Product Code (1) field and the default will be **ALL**. Use the drop down arrow to select a specific Product Code if applicable. If a specific Product Code is entered, you can program the Roundup feature for a specific Style, or for All Styles under that Product Code. The Select Style (2) field will also default to **ALL**. Only if you need to program a unique Roundup scenario for a specific Style should you click the Select Style button to choose a Style. In the A-J (3) fields, you can click in each field to enter/change data or tab through each field starting at the A Level. From one to ten different Roundup levels can be programmed using the following guidelines: A full range of cents must be programmed, from .00 to .99. The second field in the A level line must be .99, and the first field of the lowest range programmed must be .00. In other words, if pricing is to round up to the nearest “9”, all 10 levels would need to be programmed and the A level would read “.90 > .99 = .99” and the J level would read  “.00 > .09 = .09.” To program all pricing to roundup to the nearest “99”, only the A level line needs to be programmed. It should read “.00 > .99 = .99.” To roundup to the nearest “49” or “99,” program the A & B levels to read as follows: A.) .50 > .99 = .99 & B.) .00 > .49 = .49. The following is an example of a Roundup Table programmed to round to the nearest “9”: 

Click the Add or Update button to save new programming or any changes. Depending on the size of the catalog being updated, this may take a few seconds. The system will prompt a Record Updated message when complete. Click OK and the system will place you back at the Inventory Control menu. You will need to enter back into this module to continue programming.
Once all applicable Roundup Tables have been programmed, the new pricing can be viewed in many areas of the system. (Please Note: If Margins or Exact Pricing through the Catalog (A-F) Pricing Maintenance/Print module have not been programmed, these new Roundup prices will not be accurate.) In the Catalog and Inventory Maintenance modules, the A-F Level prices will automatically reflect the new pricing once the Roundup Table(s) is programmed. In the Order Entry, Quote Entry*, and Property Management modules, the Price column will reflect the new rounded pricing if the System Control 1 option is set to default to one of the A-F Level prices. Also, the A-F Level Pricing Table in Quote and Order Entry will display the new A-F Level rounded pricing. And finally, the price list in the Catalog (A-F) Pricing Maintenance/Print module will reflect the new pricing change. 
*If the Enter Cost in Quote Entry option has been enabled in System Control 1, the Roundup feature will not be applicable in the Quote Entry module.
