MQuote features an extremely flexible and very comprehensive method of assigning discounts and profits. Several methods of applying such discounts and profits are provided. They may be applied to items as these are entered into the database or to individual items as the latter are entered directly into a quotation. Individual customers may be assigned discounts to all or certain ranges of items. Discounts and profits may be applied to parts of a quotation - or to the entire quotation. |

Items may be assigned simple cost and price data. Both markups and discounts may be applied to individual items as required e.g. a discount on the sale price or a markup on the purchase cost. Alternatively, items may be included in the quote and a discount/markup then applied to the quote as a whole. Items may be organized into common groups and default discounts applied to these groups. Any customer can be assigned some, or all, of these groups, and each group can be given an actual discount that overrides the default for that customer. These discounts can then be applied automatically in quotes. The discount on individual items can be modified in any particular quotation. Discounts may also be applied to a group of items in a quote, or to the entire quote through the use of totals. Quantity discounts can be applied by using cost and price breaks and a quote may be set automatically to select the correct price according to the quantity entered. Profit may be generated on an item by deriving the price directly from the cost, or by applying a specific markup when the item is used in a quote. Profit, either markup or margin, may also be applied through the use of totals as a very adaptable totalling and sub-totalling system is available. |
