Wherefour Automated Price List Update Rollout

When you upload a revised price list to the designated Google Sheet, WebRun reads each line, identifies which customer tiers and SKUs are affected, updates the corresponding price lists in Wherefour, and drafts a personalized price change notification email in Gmail for every affected customer, leaving each draft for a sales rep to review and send.

In short

How do I roll out food manufacturing price list updates across customer tiers automatically?

When you upload a revised price list to Google Sheets, WebRun reads the changes by SKU and tier, updates each affected price list in Wherefour with the new prices and effective dates, and drafts a personalized notification email in Gmail for every affected customer. Sales reps review and send the drafts, so pricing stays accurate and customers are notified consistently.

  • Wherefour price lists are updated across all tiers from a single spreadsheet upload
  • Every affected customer gets a personalized draft notification ready for rep review
  • Custom-priced customers are automatically excluded from bulk updates

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it notify customers about price changes automatically?

No. Every customer price change notification is drafted in Gmail and left for your sales rep to review before sending. WebRun updates the prices in Wherefour but never sends customer-facing emails without a human approving them first.

What if a customer has a custom negotiated price that should not change?

Rows flagged as custom or exempt in the Google Sheet are skipped during the Wherefour update and no notification draft is created for those customers.

How does it know which customers belong to each price tier?

It reads the tier-to-customer mapping directly from Wherefour's price list records, so the grouping always reflects what is actually configured in your ERP.
