Overrides

Override Website Target Margin

On Setup > Websites > Website > General Settings > Prices you can override ‘default target margin’ for that Website. If you enter a percentage here, it will override the account-level setting when calculating margins, but only for site-specific calculations.

Supplier Overrides

Often, a group of products will have a common variable cost basis according to the supplier from which you buy. This can be captured by supplier-level overrides of both target margin and variable costs.

You’ll find the same variable cost matrix as you saw in account settings. Here you can individually override account defaults for any of the variable cost elements. Check the ‘override’ tickbox for any cost element and enter new values. Any line you leave unchecked will simply use the account default setting.

Any changes you make at supplier level will affect all products that have that supplier as the designated 'Preferred Supplier'.

Product Overrides

Both ‘target margin’ and all ‘variable costs’ can be overriden at product level. Choose a product and go to Sales > Gross Margin.

Just as for supplier overrides, you’ll find the same variable cost matrix as you saw in account settings. Here you can individually override account defaults for any of the variable cost elements. Check the ‘override’ tickbox for any cost element and enter new values. Any line you leave unchecked will simply use the account default setting (or supplier-level setting, if the account default has been overriden).

You can also override ‘target margin’ if your margin expectations for this product are different from others.
