How to update MRP and ESP of products
The MRP (Actual Price) and ESP (Effective Selling Price) of products are initially set by you at the product level. You can change these prices anytime. However, updating the prices in the product doesn't affect or replace the prices you've set in the inventory. Your website displays the prices mentioned in the inventory.
For changing the MRP or ESP of products at any of your selling locations, you can update the prices in the inventory rather than the product. Moreover, you can maintain different prices at each selling location than the ones you've set in the product.
In this document, you'll learn the following:
Updating Product Prices

Figure 4a: Saving The New Prices
Watch OutYour product MRP in the product cannot be less than the highest MRP you defined in the inventory of your selling locations. Check fig. 4b, 4c, and 4d.
Let's say you have entered a product MRP lower than the MRPs mentioned in the inventory.
Figure 4b: Product MRP Lesser Than Inventory MRP
While saving the changes, you might get an error as shown below.
Figure 4c: Error Encountered While Saving
In such a case, check the inventory of that product to get the highest of all the MRPs mentioned across your selling locations. Go back and fix the product MRP.

Save the changes.
Figure 4d: Clicking The Save Button
If you are unable to set a lower MRP in the product because the inventory MRPs are higher, reduce the inventory MRPs first. Later, you can bring down the product MRP.
