automatically update pricing levels

That option was a good suggestion, but I don't think it fits with my employee purchase policy. If a store had a policy where employees get X% off retail price, that'd work, but my policy differs. Employees get items for cost (zero markup). Thus, with varying markup based ON cost, a flat rule like 40% off retail price doesn't work.

I thank you for trying though.

Thanks for your response.

I do not understand how running a query (which I've never done) is any faster/more convenient than using the price change wizard built into Manager.

Can you explain?

You can save the query to be able to use it every time instead of having to go through the steps in the wizard every time. It still doesn't do what you want accomplished which is having the price update automatically when the cost increases. This could be done using a trigger but I would advise against it since you could very easily forget what triggers you have installed and eventually cause a train wreck if you get careless. Also if MS updates the tables you would lose all your custom triggers. My method is to run the inventory wizard once a month to catch any price increases. Craig
