Scheduling a price change
Schedule a new product price from a date and calculate with the VAT calculator.
Last updated on
If the price of a product changes from a certain day, you schedule it in advance. On that day Tillor changes the product's price by itself. Existing invoices keep their prices.
Scheduling a price
Open the product
Go to AdministrationProducts and open the product. At the bottom of the page is the Scheduled prices card.
Choose the date
Under Starting from, choose the day on which the new price takes effect. Today is fine, a day in the past is not.
Enter the price
Type the New price (incl. VAT). Under VAT rate leave Current VAT rate selected or choose a different rate that applies from that day. You can also choose a regime without VAT, such as Reverse charge (EU services); the product is then at 0% under that regime from that day.
Schedule the price
Click Schedule price. The price appears in the list with the status Scheduled.
If you choose today as the date, the new price applies immediately. For a later date, the price applies from the start of that day. Tillor uses your organisation's time zone for this.
What happens next?
The product gets the new price, and possibly the new VAT rate. The line in the list gets the status Applied. Tillor sends an email to your organisation's support address, or to the general email address if that is missing. The notification is called Scheduled product price applied and shows the old and the new price. See also Notifications.
Invoices that already exist do not change. Only lines you add afterwards get the new price.
Changing or removing a scheduled price
- If you schedule a price again for the same day while a scheduled price still exists, the new one replaces the old one.
- Click the bin icon next to a scheduled price and confirm with Remove scheduled price. The product keeps its current price on that date.
- A price with the status Applied stays as history and you cannot remove it.
The VAT calculator
Next to the price field, both at New price (incl. VAT) and at Price (incl. VAT) in General, there is a small calculator icon. It opens the VAT calculator.
In the calculator you can:
- enter the amount Excl. VAT or Incl. VAT. The other amount and the VAT are calculated immediately.
- choose a different VAT rate. The price incl. VAT is then recalculated from the amount excl. VAT.
- enter a percentage under Change price by %, for example 5 for five percent extra or -5 for five percent off, and click Apply.
Click Use this price to put the price and the VAT rate in the form. After that you still have to save or schedule the price.
