# Supplier cost-change policy

A new **Supplier Cost Changes** setting under **Settings → Fulfillment** decides what a distributor sync does to a product's price when the supplier's cost changes.

- **Follow my markup** (the default, and what every store did before) recalculates the price from your markup whenever the cost moves, up or down.
- **Only raise prices** recalculates only when the new cost would raise the price. When a distributor runs a promotion or lowers a dealer price, your price stays put and the difference is extra margin — and the price moves again once the cost climbs back past the level it was priced at.
- **Never change prices** leaves prices alone entirely; cost, stock and compare-at prices still refresh.

The per-product **Auto-update price on cost change** switch still works as a hard off, and a price you typed in by hand is never touched by a sync under any policy. See [Fulfillment settings](/orders/fulfillment#supplier-cost-changes).
