Is it possible to apply a price list to a product category. I have different pricing structures for different suppliers with upto 1000 products in each cattegory and need a way to affilliate price lists to categories without doing it one by one. If you know what i mean????

Not sure what you are trying to do. Price lists are generally used to determin the price you sell something from, you say suppliers, suggest you are looking for purchase pricing.
Please clarify.
What version are you on?

Version 7
The situation i'm in is as follows.
I have several different suppliers all with their own price lists all os whom give me different terms and in turn i sell them out to different customers at different terms. I have narrowed it down to 7 different discount catergories (so 7 different price lists in essence) which is no problem. each supplier could be for example, supplier 1 = cost +30%, supplier 2 = RRP-55% and so on which i can do. However each supplier has approx 1000 items and i don't wish to go through the price list set up one by one 7 times . Is there a way that i can apply discounts to CATEGORIES rather than products one at a time..
Sorry about this, its as difficult for me to explain as it is to implement.

Sage does not have functionality to do that.
We could provide a third party solution that would do it, but the cost would be around £330

Well it would be customised to you, so it would be a dependant on what you want.
From what you have said, you need one custom price list , the price of each product would be set depending on the catagory of the product.
Eg
Catagory 1 - List price less 5%
Catagory 2 - Cost Price + £10
and so on.
We could do other thing such as give you a spreadsheet linked to sage which shows all your products (and their categories, cost price, selling price etc) And then you could calculate a fixed cost price for each item using a formula in excel based on catagory, cost price, selling price etc...
If your suppliers provide their lists of 1000's of products in a suitable format, we could also write an interpreter that would extract all the standard prices and products and put them in or update them in Sage for you.
The raw importing product costs £225, scripts to process things start from £80 for simple things like importing products and price lists
(we have done much more complex scripts to do very complex things like back to back ordering and interfacing with external warehouses.)
