Price base (BL/DST)

The price base is the starting price for an item and the base from which you build your pricing structure. For example, you can use the price base of an item to calculate price markups or discounts for that item.

You can derive the price base from the manufacturer's suggested retail price, your list price, or your item cost. You must assign each item to at least one price base. Depending on the flexibility you need in your pricing structure, the same item can belong to more than one price base.

This table shows that each price base must have a unique name:

Item	Price base name	Price base
FR-44PE	COST	$23.75
	LIST	$35.00
	CAT	$30.00

You can use worksheets to mass update price bases.
