##### Basic information

To create a new price list, at least some basic information has to be entered (name, currency, decimal precision, source and description).

A price list's name must be entered. It is recommended that it is a unique one, to avoid any confusion.

The **"Master price list"** switch determines, if the price list is a<span class="HwtZe" lang="en"><span class="jCAhz ChMk0b"><span class="ryNqvb"> main or a **"master"** price list from which other price lists will be derived. </span></span></span><span class="HwtZe" lang="en"><span class="jCAhz ChMk0b"><span class="ryNqvb">If the new price list **is not a "master" price list,** then its parent needs to be selected in the **"Parent price list"** drop-down.</span></span></span>

Every **price list is** **required** **to have a currency selected**. By default, **EUR** currency is selected. The "**Price** **round** **precisison**" defines to how many decimals all prices on the price list are rounded up to. By default, prices are rounded to 1 decimal.

With the price formatting set, the price list **source** should be selected. The source, in this case, means where the price list has been received from, either "**internal"** - from within the company or "**external"** - from an external source ( eg. a consultant).

The **"Is end user"** switch is used to determine, if orders, created with this price list will be calculated into employee salary rewards.

The initial **status** of a price list is not among the necessary information. If not selected, a new price list will have the **"Released"** status set as default. The status can also be set as **"Obsolete",** in cases when old price lists are being entered into the system.

A **description of a price list is necessary** to provide additional information about what the price list's purpose is, as names are not always descriptive enough.

Once all the information has been entered, the price list can be saved.
