024886 Ability to update/import disc%,markup% information through CSV pricelist import.
Overview
KCSL have enhanced the ‘CSV Pricelist import tool’ to allow for the import/update of pricelist ‘Disc %’ and ‘Markup %’ fields.
Specification
Requirement from the development/Reason:
The customer currently very often update their pricelists but the CSV only allows them to update the Price and nothing else so they want the ability to also import/Update the Disc % and the Base MarkUp%.
Workaround suggested by KCSL:
To export the pricelist via the XML export, make the changes and import the changes. the customer has tested this and provided feedback that exporting 200~ line pricelist has taken more than 5 minutes which is not efficient to use the functionality
Changes that KCSL will be making:
Add the ability to Import/Update the Disc % and Base MarkUp% fields through the CSV Pricelist Import tool. These fields will be optional so if not populated the tool have the same behaviour as before this development.
