It would be very useful if the Sage API allowed stock prices, customer price books and limited price bands to be created and updated.
At the moment:
Stock items can be created through the API, but there is no way to assign or update the selling price at the same time, so this still has to be done manually in Sage.
We use an external tool to identify low-margin sales orders. It would be much more efficient if this tool could also update the customer’s price book directly, rather than someone having to make the change manually in Sage.
Updating limited price bands is very time-consuming. Only one price band can be updated per import, and each of our customers has their own limited price band. This means changes have to be processed one customer at a time.
If Sage allowed these prices to be updated through the API, we could build external tools to manage pricing much more efficiently, reduce repetitive manual work, and make large-scale customer price updates much quicker and less prone to error.
