How to I get the Pricelist?

Searching the Reece Pricelist

• Searching & finding the items you require is quick & easy. Items have been categorised into groups, sub-groups & individual items to assist you in locating them.
• If you are unsure of the group an item belongs to, simply select the 'All Items' group & search the full list. The use of groups & searching allows you to compare prices & discounts of differing brands easily & quickly.
• PayPerWork uses 'string' searching, the program will search for the string of characters anywhere in the descriptions & ID.
• Quite often a necessary option & one that can be turned on & off as you please, PayPerWork can alter the appearance of price lists to only display the customers billing price. This allows you to show customers your pricelist, allow them to select their own products & peruse the different costs.

Commonly Used Items

• The Reece price list averages 4000-5000 items. To lessen the load & speed up the searching facility, PayPerWork creates a supplementary list of Reece items & displays them as your Commonly Used Items.
• There are two ways to create this list. PayPerWork will automatically add items used to the commonly used items list, or the option can be ticked manually.
• Switching between the two price lists is simple, just tick the 'Full List' button & all the Reece items will be displayed.

Alternative Description

• Quite often the description a wholesaler gives an item can be difficult to decipher. The description given may not be what you or your customers refer to it as. The flexibility of PayPerWork means you can even give items an alternative description. Add one to every item in the list, or just a few.
• Alternative descriptions can be printed in place of wholesaler descriptions or manufacturer ID's in invoices, orders, reports etc., or they can be kept for internal use only, to jog your memory of the faucets installed in the units up the road.

Using the price list

The Reece price list is available in orders, purchases, quotes, jobs, invoices, contracts;

Orders & Purchases

• Raise material orders & email them to your supplier with absolutely no fuss, directly from PayPerWork.
• The 'Copy From' feature can cater for an accepted quote, (several quotes, or even part of a quote) to be copied into a purchase order to be sent to your supplier. No missed items, mistakes or typo's, the material listing is exactly as your quoted it. This help with keeping track of the items included in the originally accepted quote & any variation items added later.
• All materials for a specific time frame can be consolidated into a single purchase order to simplify ordering. Perhaps to order all the materials needed for next week so you can take a long deserved break?
• In turn, orders can be received directly into purchases & then allocated to jobs for invoicing. Instantly check the remaining quantities on an order & never miss out on charging for materials ordered & installed, but forgotten. If the order was not completely filled, but the job is complete, you may ask yourself 'what is missing & why?'.

Quotes,

• Accurately estimated quotes can be prepared using the Reece price list items. Using the Reece materials in conjunction with your own standard items, no portion of a job need go unaccounted for.
• With every quote, you have the potential to know exactly how much the job will cost you, how much you will earn from it & what percentage of that will be profit. All before it's even in the mail. Quote come in a little high? You will know exactly what & where you can take funds off & if the job is worth what you would profit.
• Modify quotes at anytime, in any way. If a quote has been accepted a few months after issued, to calculate your rise & falls, simply copy it the existing quote into a new quote for the customer & PayPerWork will ask prompt you regarding the changes in price.

Jobs, Invoices & Contracts

• Using the Reece price list, will help your cash flow. No more waiting for the purchase invoice to arrive from the supplier before preparing your customers invoice, simply refer to the RRP price.
• PayPerWork is all about making accuracy & consistency easy. Standard formats, common phrases, terms & conditions, all these can be created as templates & used as a base to ensure consistency.
• For larger jobs, it can be easier to break the invoice & charges down into stages of work. These stages can be subtotalled individually. Calculate the materials & labour needed for each stage, break the job down to small tasks & then print the invoice showing the subtotals only. Your calculations are always on hand.
• Unit rate items are a combination of other items to create one product. Mix & match Reece & standard items in one unit rate item, add the 15 minutes labour used to the plumbing certificate purchased from Reece & charge it as one item.
• Perhaps, out on site, not everything goes according to your calculations - say, your apprentice knocks a hole in the new plaster - one quick check & you know exactly how much leeway you have to rectify the problem & still come out on top.
• Comparing the calculated profit from your quotes, to the profit calculated when your invoice is complete is an important analysis tool. Are you making the profit you expected? Using PayPerWork can help you monitor this properly.

Customising the Prices

The Reece price list emailed each month contains two prices;

• The Reece RRP Price called LIST PRICE (Catalog Price)
• Your Cost or Buying price called COST PRICE

These prices can only be changed by Reece.

• PayPerWork allows for a third price to be calculated. This price can be created by marking up your Cost price or marking down your RRP or List price. This price is called TRADE PRICE.
• Any or all of the prices can be used when quoting & invoicing. Your preference may be;
  • Quote & Invoice at LIST/RRP price.
  • Quote at Cost & invoice at LIST/RRP.
• You may not like either of the prices, that is where TRADE price comes in.
