Price Codes
Price Sampler Overview
In the form view of each Group’s Pricing tab, to the right, you will find four columns of numbers (Dimensions, United Inches, Footage, Price). This the Price Sampler ; it's job is to calculate and display what your retail price looks like using the current values from Formula and/or Set Price tabs.
-
A great way to quickly look up a retail price for various moulding sizes without creating a Work Order.
-
Changing the values in your Formula and/or Set Price results in a change in the sampler's data.
-
When setting your prices, use the Price Sampler data to gauge how your pricing works with different entries or combinations.

Price Sampler Error
-
If a question mark appears in the Price Sampler, then there is an error in either the Set Price field or the Formula field (which calculates the markup).
-
Check both the Formula, to see if a ? also appears in the Markup field, and the Set Price, to see if a ? appears in tan field (not the off-white box where the equation is entered).
-
Once you know which field is causing the error, you can then correct it.
Tip: If you have difficulty locating the error, then contact the FrameReady Team for assistance at 1-888-281-3303 ET.
