Good practice to be able to raise prices in bulk by percentage

Add the prices of your products to a newly created Base Pricelist and derive the Public Pricelist (and/or others) from this pricelist adding the percentage. (You need to enable the 'Advanced price rules (discounts, formulas)' setting for this.)






How does the rounding method work?

    """Return ``value`` rounded to ``precision_digits`` decimal digits,
       minimizing IEEE-754 floating point representation errors, and applying
       the tie-breaking rule selected with ``rounding_method``, by default
       HALF-UP (away from zero).
       Precision must be given by ``precision_digits`` or ``precision_rounding``,
       not both!

       :param int precision_digits: number of fractional digits to round to.
       :param float precision_rounding: decimal number representing the minimum
           non-zero value at the desired precision (for example, 0.01 for a 
           2-digit precision).
       :param rounding_method: the rounding method used: 'HALF-UP', 'UP' or 'DOWN',
           the first one rounding up to the closest number with the rule that
           number>=0.5 is rounded up to 1, the second always rounding up and the

    # after rounding: e.g. float_round(1.3, precision_rounding=.5) == 1.5
    # Due to IEE754 float/double representation limits, the approximation of the
    # real value may be slightly below the tie limit, resulting in an error of
    # 1 unit in the last place (ulp) after rounding.
    # For example 2.675 == 2.6749999999999998.
    # To correct this, we add a very small epsilon value, scaled to the
    # the order of magnitude of the value, to tip the tie-break in the right
    # direction.
