Qty Group
Big Business has several Pricing features. Many do not appear until enabled. Qty Pricing (prices based on quantity being purchased), for example, adds a tab to the Item card and includes tools for Update, Import, etc. once you turn it On in the Item Prefs.

Qty Pricing Options
Big Business includes several options for selling different Quantities at different prices.
There is a optional feature (for a paving stone distributor) that lets you key in one unit (square feet) on one row and converts to other units (pallets and eaches) on split rows. This works with Qty Pricing to automatically set bulk price (pallet) on bulk rows.
There is another feature (for beverage distributor) for splitting one item (drink cases) into other items (individual drinks) automatically, so the inventory is kept up-to-date. This does not require Qty Pricing because each item (cases and eaches) has its own item card to automatically avoid fractional items (one case minus one bottle leaves 23).

Qty Prices
Qty Prices are being updated for Big Business 14 to help reliably entering price breaks.
Pictured is the Item Card with many options for MRP, Price Level, Shopify and more. Qty Pricing is a separate option for quantity price breaks including across group items.
Qty Pricing Tab
Big Business 14 updates the Qty Pricing Tab on the Item Card to improve useability.
Qty Pricing is separated from Item Pricing for clarity. As pictured, you see your price breaks for Qty's (10, 100, 200) sorted in ascending order. Click Add (+) for a new blank row and it goes on top (highlighted).
Qty Pricing is one of many optional tabs for items along with Item MRP, Price Levels, BigCommerce, and Shopify, pictured. Each is turned on separately so there are only three tabs to start. Go to Item Prefs, click Qty Pricing, and this will enable this feature.
Qty Pricing Import
Big Business 14 renames the Qty Pricing Import (was Item Pricing) to improve clarity.
Qty Pricing is a complete feature set, turned on in Item Prefs, that lets you offer price breaks on quantities purchased. The import speeds the process of adding Qty Pricing.
Use the Update in the Items Search to delete old Qty Pricing before importing new. Use imports for items to change regular prices or assign Qty Group for mix & match.
