Pricing
Pricing is one of the greatest strengths of our system, and it's easy to see why: it's powerful and flexible enough to support whatever your business needs require.
Produce Pro offers absolutely the most comprehensive, flexible pricing functionality available in a software system. Our pricing hierarchy lets you tell the system how to make the right price decisions in specific situations, no matter how simple or how complex you need them to be. And you'll always know where a given figure came from: the system tracks the decisions that led to every figure, for every item on every order.
Flexibility for any situation
We know that no two customer relationships are exactly alike — and our system is designed with tools that support the way you do business, not make you conform to someone else's ideal process.
The system's pricing logic can be as generalized or as granular as you'd like, depending on your needs and circumstances. You can choose a cost basis from multiple cost bases, and use detailed markup calculation strategies to control markup, based on rules that you control.
And if you want to let your salespeople take the reins, the system supports that, too. It includes multiple types of controls to ensure that price override ability is available only to those who should have it, and that the overridden figures are appropriate.
Smart processing, smart decisions
Produce Pro can automate the tedious, repetitive work associated with managing your pricing schemes. For example:
- The system can automatically generate and distribute price lists and order guides, whether you send them by fax, e-mail, on paper, or a combination of the three. And we can help you drive business with customized, unique documents — whether you prefer to send out simple lists or colorful booklets.
- Quick-entry interfaces make it easy to maintain and update price lists and cost figures.
- You can configure the system to follow your hierarchy exactly, or tell it to choose the lowest price figure from several sources. There's no need to double-check the options against each other by hand; the system does it all.
