Pricing items in Commusoft allow you to add non-physical charges like 'call-out fees' or congestion charges to invoices on both the web and mobile app. On estimates, these pricing items are accessible through the mobile app only. Customizing pricing items on your desktop ensures that your business-specific charges are accurately captured.

Clean Your Data
Ensure all data is clean and precise to prevent import errors. Ensure the CSV includes the following mandatory columns:
Description: Must not contain commas.
Nominal code: Must match an existing code in the system.
Tax/VAT: Must be a valid tax rate or description without a "%" symbol.
Unit price: Should be a valid number (e.g., 10, 10.00), without any currency symbols.
If your account has complex tax enabled, "Tax/VAT" refers to the tax description.
Updating Your Pricing Items via CSV
To update existing pricing items, keep the Description unchanged, and update Nominal code, Tax/VAT, or Unit price as needed. Changes will apply only if all information adheres to the import criteria.
Steps:
Download your pricing items > Open the XLS file.
Delete the ID column > Make necessary edits.
Save as a CSV > Re-import your pricing items list.
Description: Must remain unchanged to update; otherwise, a new item will be created.
