Using Price Levels to adjust Prices across Locations

Your NetSuite ERP accounting setup for NetSuite Point of Sale (NSPOS) can include Price Levels. These levels let you set different pricing for the same item based on store locations. Price Levels are usually set as discounts against an item’s base price.

For example, if you set a Price Level to have a Markup/Discount % of -10%, every item with that Price Level will have a 10% discount off the Base Price at Locations having that Price Level assigned. You can apply a positive percent (without a negative sign) to increase a price.

You can edit a Price Level to change the Markup/Discount %. To adjust current prices of all items that use the level, check the Update Existing Prices box before saving. This action updates current prices of all items that use the level.

When you assign a Price Level to an item, the new item price is included in the downsync to all registers at the assigned stores. The downsync sets the item’s price on those registers. Updating a Price Level creates new downsync’d prices for all items whose price has changed.

Important:

Depending on the size of your inventory, it can take up to one hour to update all prices for all items included in a Price Level change. o keep registers running smoothly, avoid updating Price Levels during business hours if it will affect a lot of items.

Viewing your Price Levels

  1. Log in to NetSuite as an administrator.

  2. Go to Setup > Accounting > Setup Tasks > Accounting Lists.

  3. Expand the Filters and select Price Level.

  4. Click View by the desired Price Level.

For the Steps to Use Price Levels:

Warning:

Inactivating a price level – Making a price level inactive in NetSuite ERP doesn't inactivate it in NSPOS. An inactive price level previously selected for a location, customer, or pricing group will continue being the POS-Price Level that adjusts the base price at the register.

If you don’t need a price level anymore, pick a different one to replace it. You can also set the base price as the POS-Price Level.
