# Batch Price Management

Batch Price Management is a feature that allows businesses to set and control sales prices for individual batches of an item. The pricing is determined based on the **Sales Margin** and the selected **Batch Pricing Method** in Settings.

The Sales Margin is used to calculate the selling price for newly received batches in inward transactions. This ensures that new batches automatically get a selling price based on the predefined margin.

**Formula:**

> **Selling Price = Cost Price + (Sales Margin % × Cost Price)**

## Batch Pricing Method

The Batch Pricing Method determines how the selling price and MRP are pre-populated for existing batches in sales (invoice) and purchase (purchase receives) transactions.

There are four available methods:

Method

Description

**Default Price**

Uses the selling price and MRP specified during creating the item.

**Latest Price**

Applies the selling price and MRP from the most recently received batch.

**Highest Price**

Uses the highest selling price and MRP available across all inward transaction batches.

**Price From Inward Transaction**

Applies the selling price and MRP defined for the selected batch during a transaction. You can choose from the available prices using the **Available Prices** option.
