Prices

Flow Retail provides a flexible and powerful pricing structure designed to give you full control over both sales and profitability. Whether you’re working with standard retail pricing, purchase costs, or internal margin tracking — it’s all built in.

Each product can include:

• Standard Sales Price – the default price you sell the product for (often the recommended retail price).

• Standard Purchase Price – the typical cost you pay your supplier for the product.

• Cost Price – automatically calculated by the system based on your actual purchases.

In addition to specific prices on the product, you can add product prices to price lists and to to campaigns.

Cost Price calculation method

Flow Retail uses average cost pricing (also known as weighted average) to calculate the cost price.

This gives a more balanced view over time, especially when purchase prices vary, and differs from FIFO (First In, First Out) pricing, which is used in some other systems and can lead to fluctuating margins depending on purchase order timing.

With this model, you get reliable insights into product profitability — without the volatility of FIFO-based cost tracking.
