How to set up the products and offers lists in easySales: columns, markup and bundle prices

Choose what the products and offers lists show, read the markup, and let easySales calculate the prices of the products in a bundle.

What these settings are for

The Products and Offers page settings decide what the products list and the offers list show in their name and price columns: SKU, stock, brand, EAN, purchase price, markup and more. The products settings also hold one option for bundles. Open them from Settings → Page settings, then Products or Offers, or with the gear button on the products or offers list.

Three things to know first:

  • The column layout is saved in your browser. It changes nothing in your products or offers, and nothing on your marketplaces. A colleague, another computer or a private window shows the default layout.
  • One layout covers every list of its kind. The products layout applies to the online shop and the Virtual Shop product lists, the offers layout to the offers of every marketplace.
  • The bundle option is the only setting saved on your account. It decides how the prices of a bundle's products are set.

Choose what the lists show

The Interface tab of the products settings: Name column layout and Price column layout, each with a Visible list (Name with a padlock, SKU, Inventory, Brand, Tags; Sale price with a padlock, Full price, Markup) and a Hidden list, and Save.
Tick, untick and drag the items, then save.

Each column has two lists: Visible and Hidden.

  1. Untick an item to hide it, tick it to show it again at the end of the list.
  2. Drag the items to change their order. Items with a padlock are always shown.
  3. Press Save.

On the offers list, Stock is the stock of the product linked to the offer, minus the reserved stock: what easySales sends to the marketplace. An offer that is not linked to a product shows Unlinked and no product details.

What the offers list can show

Markup

Markup shows how much the sale price adds over the acquisition price: (sale price − acquisition price) ÷ acquisition price, without VAT. Hover over it to see the profit per unit. It is red when you sell under the acquisition price, and shows a dash when the product has no acquisition price. Marketplace commissions and fees are not included.

The Interface tab of the offers settings: Name column (Name, Account alias, SKU, Inventory visible; EAN, Brand, Warehouse location hidden) and Price column (Sale price, Full price, Markup visible; Acquisition price, Price Addition hidden), and Save.
One layout for the offers of every marketplace.

Bundle component prices

The General tab of the products settings with Automatically calculate bundle component prices turned on, its explanation, and Save.
The only setting here that applies to the whole account.

When a bundle is ordered, easySales splits it into its products on the order and on the invoice, and each product's line price comes from the price set for it in the bundle. On the General tab of the products settings, Automatically calculate bundle component prices decides who sets those prices.

Option off (default) Option on
Who sets the prices You, for each product of the bundle easySales, from the bundle's sale price
Rule The prices without VAT must add up exactly to the bundle's sale price The split always adds up
Bundle import Uses the Price column Ignores the Price column
Bundle component prices
  • With the option on, easySales splits the bundle's sale price without VAT over its products, in proportion to each product's own sale price. The price fields of the products are replaced by a Calculated price, and the Price column of the bundle import is not used.
  • The split happens when you save a bundle or import bundles. Bundles saved before you turned the option on keep their prices until you save them again.
  • When the bundle's sale price changes later, the prices of its products change in the same proportion, whichever way the option is set.

The option is off by default, it applies to the whole account, and only the main account can change it.

Your team and these settings

Every team member can set the columns in their own browser. The bundle option can be changed only from the main account.
