Adding your prices to our software will ensure that you are automatically considered for standard orders. Prices are added to Panacea using our price matrices, which are configured to calculate important aspects of print and design.
Any non-standard orders are made via quote requests. 


Creating a new matrix


Downloading the matrix template

  • To download a new template, navigate to Supplier Interface > Prices and select the 'Add price matrix' tab.

Completing your matrix

  • Enter your prices only in the column of cells under the 'Unit Price £' heading. 
  • Please only input numbers into the yellow boxes, never put words or symbols as our system will not be able to read these.
  • If you don't offer an element, please mark an X or leave it blank. 
  • If you do offer it, and it is free of cost, please enter 0.
    • In the cases of putting prices in the run off columns, but you don't charge for make ready, please fill that column with 0 otherwise it will register it as a blank and therefore it understands that as it not being offered.
  • Once you have completed the matrix, upload it back to Panacea via the 'Add price matrix' tab.
  • You can test your prices in the 'Test Prices' tab.
