Default Vendor Costs

I started my store recently and now really want to start loading vendor costs and track profit. Initially, we only had a few items and did that manually, but it is time to get all i's dottted and t's crossed.

Where is the setting for adding cost of items purchased?

This is under "Vendor information" on each product toward the bottom.

There is also a section for "vendor rules" way at the bottom, I am not sure that impacts what you need it for though.

If I understand your question, you now have a lot more products and you don't want to update the vendor cost manually?

If so, you can download your products by doing a products download and include the "Vendor_Price" along with other categories that you want to see. Download in a csv format and you can enter your vendor price, for cost of goods, and then import that file back into your site through the admin panel.

A lot quicker than doing it manually if you have a lot of products that need updating.

Hope this helps!

This is great information! Thank you. I must admit all the settings can be a bit overshelming to a new user. I am glad this forum is here!
