set sale schedule by quantity on hand

Jun 04, 2007 6 Replies

We frequently get buy-ins on items where we get a fixed amount of items at a discount. It would be benificial to be able to set a sale schedule according to the quantity in stock. For example we buy 25 items at a discount and would like to put this item on sale until we run out of the discounted quantity. So if I normally carry 4 of that item I might want it to be on sale until the quantity on hand gets down to 4. Craig

Good idea but not currently in the standard product. One way I can think of this is to create a KIT of 1 item. So those 25 items you want can be tagged and sold as a different product though automatically priced at the special price you want. But this is a good enhancement suggestion for Microsoft.

Correct me if i misunderstanding,

How about setting the Buydown quantity and Buydown Price,

Buydown will not work in this case. I want any customer that buys the item, no matter how many of them, to get the discounted price until the quantity on hand reaches a predetermined level. If I understand buydowns correctly this is not how it works. What I would like is to be able to set a sale schedule that lasts as long as I have the discounted inventory in stock and then automatically go off sale. Buydowns will not satisfy this need. I'm not looking for any work arounds here. This was a suggestion for an improvement to RMS. If you think you would benefit from this enhancement please vote for it. Craig

As I said before, buydown will not work for what I want to do. I want to put a fixed number of an item on sale when I get them at a discount. This is not how buydowns work. If you think you could benefit with this improvement to discount scheduling please vote for it. Craig
