Price overrides can be recorded in the database when a price is changed on a transaction. Additionally, a reason can be required to be entered. When this information is recorded, the Price Changes Log report displays the information.
Navigate to Accounting / Setup / Inventory Departments, and edit the department(s) for which price overrides will be recorded. On the Profile tab, select Log Price Overrides to record when a price override is changed on a transaction. Selecting the Require Reason for Price Overrides option stops the transaction when a price override is involved, and a reason must be entered to continue with the save.
When the Require Reason for Price Overrides option is selected, saving an Invoice with a price change on a Product in the selected inventory department displays a Reason for Price Override window. This shows the Price Before the change and the Price After the change.
Enter the reason the price was changed in the Reason for Price Override column, or select a previously used reason from the Reason drop-down at the bottom of the window.
Select OK. The Invoice is saved, and the Print Invoice Documents window displays.
