Question

Tracking Inventory: one item different prices

We charge different customers different prices for the same product. We're not sure how to track inventory for this! Help! Say we have 1 window cleaner in stock. If we note that A, B, and C customers all have 1 in stock, QBO will think we have 3 in stock instead of 1. If I say that window cleaner A has 1 in stock but B and C have zero, how do we update inventory when we receive more window cleaner? Say we order 30 window cleaners, it doesn't make sense to say each category (A/B/C) have 10 each because that's not proportionate to the customers in each category. How do we deal with tracking inventory?

Hello Alicia,

 

Welcome to the QuickBooks community. I'll be happy to assist. QuickBooks Online offers a flexible platform that lets you manage your business efficiently. That being said, assigning multiple prices to the same product is not an integrated feature of the system and the built-in inventory tracking will not work in this case.

 

Our experienced users in the community might have suggestions or workarounds for you. You can also check if any available third party apps offer this functionality. To do so, select Apps from the left menu then perform a search with a relevant keyword.

 

Let me know if you need help with anything else.
