Use the PTC Calculator to calculate the PTC (Price to Consumer) of an item based on the distributor's PTR (Price to Retailer) and the margin set up for a store. A "sanity" check is performed automatically to ensure the PTC falls within the minimum/maximum markup allowed.
Follow these steps:
A. |
From the Vendor Managed Pricing tab, under Research:
The item must be authorized in the store to be chosen in following steps. This allows the application to perform a minimum/maximum markup validation. Note: If a choice is made in one field, the other fields update to match. For example, if a Brand is selected, the Packaging list provides choices only for that Brand. UPC - Enter the UPC without dashes. The default is UPCA format 5-5 (10 digits). Click the link to change the format, if needed. Brand - Select the brand. Packaging - Select the container, such as Keg or Can. Pack - Select how the item is bundled.
