Edit Price Sheets

MarketDirect StoreFront provides you with tools for adjusting the prices on your price sheets (1) individually or (2) globally.

1 Individual price editing: You can open a price sheet and edit one or more item prices as needed—adjusting only those values that need to be adjusted and leaving the others as they are.

● Example: You would select this option, for instance, to increase the price of a specific Media (e.g., 100# glossy cover stock) to match a wholesale price increase.

2 Global price editing: You can copy an existing price sheet and adjust the values globally for all or only selected priceable components by a certain percentage (increase or decrease).

● Example: You would select this option to make across-the-board price adjustments, such as discounting all prices on a price sheet by 10% for a sales promotion you are running for a particular company or Print Shop.

Edit a Price Sheet: Individual Price Editing

1 On the Price Sheet Management page, select the price sheet by clicking its radio button, then click Open.

2 Click Edit to open the Price Sheet Management editor. The price sheet editor is arranged into 6 tabs:

● Price Sheet Details

● Print Services

● Media

Note: In MarketDirect StoreFront a large format job is defined as any print job on a Media that exceeds 22" (559mm) in width or height (or both). So, for instance, any Media in your catalog that exceeds 22" (559mm) on any dimension will be in the large format class for pricing purposes.

● Impressions

Note on Mixed Mode Impression Pricing: When calculating pricing for mixed mode impressions (color on 1 side of sheet, black-and-white on the other), MarketDirect StoreFront considers 1 sheet in a duplexed job as 2 impressions. If a buyer chooses a mixed impression, the Quote Editor and pricing will reflect that both sides of the sheet were calculated for the color mode of the front side of the sheet. For example, say a buyer is ordering a 56-page document with 55 pages in color and 1 page in black-and white. The job is duplex (printed both sides) and the front side of sheet 1 (the first page of the document) is set to print in black-and-white and the back side of sheet 1 (the second page of the document) is set to print in color. The Quote Editor will reflect two impressions in black-and-white and 58 in color (whereas the job ticket will reflect that 1 page was black-and-white and 59 pages were color). For information on setting mixed mode impressions for a product, see Mixed_Color and BW Impressions.

● Change the Price Sheet Name.

● Add Comments (e.g., instructions for when to use the price sheet).

● Adjust the Number of Decimals (in the range 0 - 10) to use in pricing (e.g., selecting 2 sets the pricing to the one hundredth fraction of currency - to the penny in U.S. Dollars: 12.56).

● View the Last Revision Date. This is for information purposes only.

● Specify the Next Revision Date (when the price sheet should next be edited).

● Click Save.
