Overview

This article explains how to configure pricing for vendors in the Software — setting the wholesale costs that feed into your product pricing calculations.

What Is Vendor Pricing?

Vendor pricing defines what you pay your supplier for a given product at various quantities. This cost is used as the base when calculating your retail and tier pricing. Accurate vendor pricing ensures your markups and margins are correct.

Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Log in to your administration panel at admin.yourwebsiteaddress.com.

  2. In the left navigation, click Vendors and Suppliers.

  3. Click the name of the vendor you want to configure.

  4. Click View Products or navigate to the product you want to price.

  5. For each product option value, enter the wholesale cost in the WS Price or SF Cost field.

  6. Set the Setup cost if the vendor charges a setup fee for this product.

  7. Click Save.

Applying Vendor Pricing to Products

Once vendor costs are entered, they feed into the product pricing tiers automatically when you use the Quick Tier Mark-up tool:

  1. Navigate to Catalog and open the product.

  2. Click Quick Tier Mark-up.

  3. Enter your desired markup percentage for each pricing tier.

  4. Click Apply. Retail and tier prices calculate from the vendor cost.

See Quick Tier Mark-up From Cost for detailed instructions.

Notes / Tips

  • Hub Only: Vendor pricing configured at the Hub level applies to all child storefronts that inherit pricing from the Hub. Storefronts can have pricing overridden individually.

  • Keep vendor costs up to date — if your supplier raises prices, update the WS cost and reapply markups to keep margins accurate.

  • Vendor pricing is separate from the retail price shown to customers. Customers never see wholesale costs.
