Managing suppliers pricing on bulk quantities

Kirsten · March 2021

Hi All,

Anyone use the Purchase Order function that can help me? Some of our suppliers have pricing that differs based on the quantity of items that we purchase. Short of setting up different items for all their pricing bands and using the relevant one when processing a purchase order, is there a way to record various pricing bands to one item? Our item list is already enormous!

half the time I just enter the item and just manually edit the amount

@Kirsten There is a Price Levels feature but this is only for Customers. As Charley said, unfortunately the only option for Supplier prices is to edit the Item amount 😬

Thanks guys... maybe I’ll suggest it as a new feature. Adjusting it manually is not ideal. Happy Friday 🙂

Hi Kirsten,

If you desperately look for a solution, I can help you to build one. Basically, we will have an external application that will read data from Reckon, it will then allow you to set price rules for each vendor/item. So you can set the price range for item A with Vendor B, for eg. from 1-10 will be $10, from 10 to 100 will be $9.5, and so on. Now you have 2 options, either enter a new PO in Reckon and have the external app "correct" the PO (based on the price rule) or use a custom PO form from the custom app (the latter give you the live price while the former will save you some time/money)

Let me know if you are interested to learn more about it.

Thanks,

Phuong
