Overview

As prices can change at anytime we designed a way to manage price changes whenever an order is created.

Excerpt

Enabling the "Price Override" option will allow Admins and Credit Managers to restrict the Sales Team whenever they change the price to a lower amount.

If that's the case, they will have to request a "Price Override" in order to bill the items to the customer.

Price override setup

To enable this option please do as follows:

  1.  Go to Setup> Settings tab.
  2. Click on Credit and Price Overrides, under the "Order Entry Options" title.
  3. Check the "Require price override" option.
  4. Enter the users you want the system to send the notifications in order to get the approval (with a Sales Manager role), leaving this option empty, the system will notify all users with the mentioned role.
