To create a new Price Book choose <em>Price Books<\/em> from <em>Inventory<\/em> menu, enter a name for your Price Book and hit <em>Save<\/em> .<\/p>\n<p>Once the Price Book is created you can start assigning product and new prices to it. There are two ways of doing it (you\u2019ll find out which one is better for you in a while). Here\u2019s the first method:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Go to Price Books (list view), select your Price Book and in detail view click <em>More Information <\/em>tab. Here you can expand either Product or Services bar, and click Select Products\/Select Services button accordingly.<\/li>\n<li>You should see a table with all of your products where you can select products and define a new \u201cprice book price\u201d for each one of them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The alternative way of doing that is:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Go to <em>Products<\/em>, pick a product that you want to add to a price book.<\/li>\n<li>In detail view of the Product click <em>More Information<\/em> tab and expand <em>Price Books<\/em> bar.<\/li>\n<li>From there click <em>Add To Price Books<\/em> button.<\/li>\n<li>You should see a list of all created Price Books and be able to define a special price for your selected product.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Using Price Books is very simple. When creating a Quote, Invoice ect. and adding items to it you will see a small \u201copen book\u201d icon next to the price. After clicking it it is possible to apply specific Price Book\u2019s price to a given product or service.<\/p>\n<p>Because of a couple of glitches in this functionality in community version of vTiger, depending on circumstances one method of creating price books works better than the other. When your product or services catalogue is not too big, the first method is more handy as it allows to quickly edit multiple products on one screen. If however your list of products is extensive, you should use the second method as the products table doesn\u2019t support pagination at this stage and large catalogues might crash browser. Anyway what if your product catalogue is really long and if your pricebooks contain thousands of items? Adding to price books would definitely take ages. In that case don\u2019t forget that we provide various automation scripts for that kind of purposes as well as customised, improved CRM solutions based on vTiger platform.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manufacturers or resellers keeping extensive product catalogue in their CRM often face the necessity of creating different price lists for&#8230;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[57,40,55,53,104,105,60],"class_list":["post-526","post","type-post","status-publish","hentry","category-article","tag-crm","tag-finance","tag-inventors","tag-market","tag-podcast","tag-pricebooks","tag-vtiger-crm"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>How to create and use Price Books in vTiger?
