■Enter a price in the Current VM Price column for the updated content to update the price in the Vending Manager.

When you click Done to change the price, the Ignore Update alert is removed.

■Take no action to adjust the content price in the Vending Manager and check the Ignore Update check box to remove the alert.

■Take no action to adjust the content price at the current time and leave the alert so that you can come back at a later time and quickly identify the content you want to update.

▼Changing the Price of Individual Content Items

You can change the purchase price for content on an individual basis. Only the purchase price of published content can be changed, that is, you cannot change the purchase price for content with Testing status. Also, you cannot change the purchase price of individual content items within a bundle.

If you change the purchase price of a content item through the content’s property page, you disassociate that content from its pricing option. See “Disassociating Content From Pricing Options” on page 30 for more information.
