Enter data in the desired fields on that screen and press Enter to see the list of matching records.
Click the Edit Selected Items button, which closes the Select Items screen, and adds the matching records to the Multi-Record & Price Editor display.
At the bottom of the screen, click in one of the cells containing data to be modified and make your change.
**Please note that changes are saved as soon as you leave the current row and cannot be undone.

It is highly recommended that this utility is used off-hours when no order processing is in progress and only after a backup copy of the Store Data File has been made as a precaution. All price changes made at this screen must be Tested before they can be Saved. It is possible to edit the new values before saving them, or close the form without saving the changes to abandon them.
To access the Multi-Record & Price Editor go to Main Menu>Settings>Inventory Functions>Multi-Record & Price Editor link.
When the screen opens, it defaults to Edit Products mode. If the screen was already opened and is in Add Products mode, click the Edit Products button in the upper right-hand corner of the screen because the Price Changes tab is not visible in Add Products mode.
Click on the Price Changes tab.
Choose one of the following radio buttons to determine the method in which prices are changed:
Increase by a percentage or a specific dollar amount
Decrease by a percentage or a specific dollar amount
Markup by a percentage or a specific dollar amount (based on the Primary Supplier unit cost or that of the lowest cost supplier)
Set the selected price field to a specific dollar amount; or the same value as a different price field, Plus or Minus a percentage (%) or dollar amount ($)
Enter the percentage or dollar amount in the appropriate fields for the selected price change method. Only one amount type can be chosen, even though all of the fields are enabled. When a value is entered into one of the fields, any existing values in the other amount fields will be cleared.
Click the Test button to preview the price changes at the bottom of the screen. The program displays the SKU, Item Name, Cost, Old Price, New Price and Reg. Price Margin fields. If the projected changes are not correct, simply enter the desired value in the New Price field.
When the price changes are correct, click the Save button.
Note: The Reg. Price Margin field was added in the SEOM 5.8XX Beta series.
