Barcodes Search
Barcodes Search help you manage barcodes you use for looking up items by scanning.
Barcodes might include any UPC's that are preprinted on products you buy and sell. If you break down, re-package, or split items you may have barcodes for each Unit.
You may also have different barcodes for the same item from different sources. Barcodes Search helps you review and manage these separately from Part Numbers.
Qty Prices Search
Qty Prices Search is a tool for managing quantity pricing entries, which may be many.
Qty Prices Import assumes you are adding new entries for new price breaks and does not delete old or check for duplicates. If you do not Delete you may get duplicates.
To change prices, use the Qty Prices Search to Export and Delete. Then updated the exported entries in spreadsheet and import anew.
Barcodes Prices
Barcodes help you enter items, which then load their correct pricing based on settings.
Part Numbers, on the other hand, can include a Customer Price or Vendor Cost to use, but only work with their assigned Customer or Vendor and correct settings to activate.
Barcodes are a fast and accurate way to add items without typing or entering yourself.
