Price Change Report (RPC)

About the Price Change Report

Use the Price Change Report (RPC) to finalize price changes that you received electronically (i.e. via EFM), or that you entered into the Item Price Changes window. Select Option F to finalize price change records. Option F updates Inventory Maintenance with the new prices, and deletes the price change records from the Price Change File.

You can also use the Price Change Report (RPC) to change prices for a range of inventory items. Various options allow you to:

• Preview price changes.

• Add price change records to the Price Change File.

• Make actual price changes in the Inventory File.

• Delete records from the Price Change File.

When records are in the Price Change File, you can review, change, and delete them. You can view price change records by running the Price Change Report (RPC) without Options A, B, or F. You can also view price change records in the Flexible Pricing Grid.

Lumber/Contractor POS users:  When you update the replacement cost, the system also updates the cost in pricing and alternate units.

If you use Option A to add price change records to the Price Change File, you can:

• Run RPC with Option F to update your Inventory file.

• Run RPC with Option C to update your Inventory File with cost changes (not retail changes), only.

• Run RPC with Option X to delete price change records without updating your Inventory File.

• View individual price change records in the Flexible Pricing Grid.
