Managing vendor-specific purchase prices on product
Learn how to set unique purchase prices and vendor item codes for specific suppliers within the product module.
In Paragon, you can record specific purchase prices and article codes for different suppliers directly on the product card. This ensures that the system automatically selects the correct pricing when you create a purchase order for a specific vendor.

-
Open the product module and select the desired item.

Click the edit (Wijzigen) button to modify existing prices or prepare to add a new one.

Translation: Only check this box if you wish to set a price specifically for a certain language code. Consult your Paragon advisor before using this specific feature.
Setting vendor-specific attributes
Once the reference is created, you must define the specific attributes for this vendor relationship. Click the plus (+) icon to add each of the following:
-
Purchase Cost (Inkoopkosten): Enter the negotiated purchase price.
-
Vendor Item Code (Artikelcode Leverancier): (Optional) If the supplier uses a different part number than your internal code, enter it here. This code can be printed on your purchase orders to help the supplier identify the product.
Note: The currency is automatically determined by the vendor's financial settings. You cannot enter a currency code that differs from the one assigned to the vendor record.
