Used vehicles – Retail/Sale Price

The retail/sale price in the top right-hand corner of a used stock vehicle should be populated before the vehicle Is sold and invoiced.

If this is not done correctly, the nominal postings will be incorrect (As shown below by the accounting examples).

If the retail/sale price is not entered before the vehicle is sold or invoiced then the sale needs to be reversed.
 

 

To update the retail price


If the vehicle is invoiced, you need to credit the invoice and cancel the sales order.

If the vehicle is not invoiced, simply cancelling the order will allow you to enter/overtype the retail/sale price.
