Pricing Methods

Choose How Item Price Is Set

When creating or editing Product List items, you can set pricing in two practical ways.

Method 1: Direct Price (Lump Sum)

Use this when you already know the final sell price.

  1. Enter item details.
  2. Set Price directly.
  3. Save.

Use this for simple flat-rate items where cost breakdown is not required.

Method 2: Cost Plus Margin

Use this when you want pricing to be calculated from costs and margin.

  1. Enter Material and Labor values.
  2. Enter Margin (%).
  3. Review calculated price and save.

Formula used in Product List: Price = (Material + Labor) * (1 + Margin / 100)

Manual Override Behavior

In the item dialog, the calculated value appears as you edit cost fields.

You can also type a manual Price before saving. That manual value is saved as the item price.

If you later edit Material, Labor, or Margin, manual override is cleared and price returns to automatic cost-plus-margin calculation.

Where to Configure

  • Default Product List: /pricing/productlist
  • Additional Price Lists (override context): /pricing/price-lists/{priceListId}

In additional price lists, you can override price/margin per included item while keeping Product List as the base.
