How to decrease or increase mass prices with the PrestaShop sales margin calculator and manage sales margins
PrestaShop has no functionality for knowing, setting or modifying margins and sales margin rates.
We've therefore added it to Merlin Backoffice, as it's an essential element for managing a PrestaShop store properly and being sure to be profitable.
We've also included in Merlin, a mass calculator, which allows you to perform simple mathematical operations, such as "increase the selling prices of all products in this category by 5%".
And we've interfaced the two, so that for example, when we increase mass purchase prices, via this calculator or via the import tool, the tool knows how to recalculate all sales prices on its own, so as to keep margin rates constant.
