Create and apply departmental price lists

All price lists, including departmental price list, are created the same way. However, you need to be aware of the department structure set up in Accounts Manager before you create price lists that you want to assign by department. Create price lists that reflect the existing department structure, because you can apply a price list to existing departments only.

Before you can apply a price list to a department, you must set up the department name in Accounts Manager. You can assign users to each department at a later stage, but the department must be defined and known to CAS before you can apply pricing at the department level.

You can assign departmental price lists to a physical device, print queue, controller interface or workstation device.

To assign a departmental price list, do the following:

  1. In System Manager > Devices, select the device that will use departmental pricing.
  2. In the Physical Device summary dialog box, select Pricing in the Settings menu.
  3. Under Departmental Pricing click Add to add a department price for the physical device.
  4. In the Departmental Price List dialog, select a Type, Department and Price List from the drop-down lists. These options must be configured before Departmental Pricing can be added.
  5. Click Add to save the Department price list.
  6. Click Save.
