Q & A with William (Will) English

Question: Does 2012 Enterprise allow me to have multiple price points for items in my item list. Say for example I have 6 parts that I can get from10 different suppliers for different prices. Can I have different prices for each vendor or do I have to have 10 separate items in the system reflecting those price differences?

Will's response: No. The new version does have an add-on called Advanced Inventory which allows you to choose Fifo inventory rather than average cost.  QuickBooks Point of Sale (QBPOS) allows for 5 different vendors, SKU’s and costs, but still uses average cost.  You may want to consider a warehouse management plug in for QuickBooks that will allow more flexibility.
