You can update cost values in different ways:

  • manually entering cost per product
  • updating multiple products at once
  • uploading cost data in bulk

This flexibility allows you to manage both small and large catalogs efficiently.

Step 4: Enter or update cost values

For each product, define the cost value.

  • the basis for profit calculations

Make sure values are accurate, as they directly affect profitability metrics.

  • apply changes to selected items

This is useful when working with large product groups.

Step 6: Save changes

After entering cost values, save your changes.

Once saved:

  • they become available for analysis and reporting

Step 7: Verify updated cost data

Return to the Catalog or review within the cost module to confirm that:

  • cost values are correctly applied
  • products no longer appear as missing cost

Pro Tip

Start by filtering products missing cost, then update them in bulk to quickly improve the accuracy of your profitability analysis.
