When I worked with the serials modual.  If you have placed your
encumbrances, appropriations, etc. in the main file, you should be able to
add eprice on individual records.  You do have to put them back every year
because the "c" does change to "d" when invoice is paid online. The manual
is pretty helpful.

Good Luck!
