Edit values / retail prices

When you use Update Values, or Add Books, you will get 2 prices from us: namely “Value” and “Retail Price” (that is if we have 1 or both of them available for your book(s) in Core). You also have a “My Value” field you can enter your own value in.

Which value fields are there?

There are 3 value related fields available for books, namely:

• Retail Price
• Value (no icon)
• My Value

Edit Book screen

In the Edit Book screen on the Value tab, you will be able to see all 3 fields, and modify 2 of them.

• Retail Price: This is the Retail Price that comes from Core. The app will use that Retail Price “as the value” for the book if Core does not provide a regular Value.
• Value: This is the Value you get from the Core online book database. It can not be modified by the user, it will update using “Update Values” when a higher/lower value is available in Core for that book.
• My Value: If you have a “My Value” filled in, the app will use that as the value. It will always override the value you get from Core. It will show up with a “person” icon in front of it.

*If you don’t want the app to use “Retail Price” as the value, you can switch this off in “Settings”: The setting is called “Use Retail Price as fallback for Value” – just disable it and it will not be used “as value” anymore (it will still be filled in the Retail Price field of course).
