There is a menu for EPPP (European Parts Price Publication) reporting. Four reports are available. Retail price changes reports on any changes in the retail price of the GM price file.
New data can be entered related to the difference between old retail prices and new retail prices. It corresponds to the tolerance percentage allowed to consider whether a retail price change must be reported or not. This means that changes in retail prices below the entered percentage will not be reported.
It is very important to understand how this tolerance works. If the field is left with its default value (zero), all retail price changes will be reported. If a positive (greater than zero) value is entered, only increasing changes over the percentage will be reported. And if a negative (less than zero) value is entered, only decreasing changes over the percentage will be reported.
