  1. Base list prices provided by price records with list price at quantity 1, no sale price and no from/to time to indicate that it is always available. It is recommended to keep single base list price record for each SKU available in shop to ensure default price is always available.

    Warning
     Products with a base price will not appear in frontend unless specified as "Showroom" in the inventory record
  2. Sale prices provided by price records with list price and sale price at quantity 1 and may optionally define from/to time period. There can be many sale price records with different from/to periods, even when timeframes overlap. The platform will automatically deduce best customer value sale price for current point in time for current customer.
  3. Multi buy prices following the same rules as sale prices and allow to take them one step further by also checking the current quantity in customer shopping cart to provide bulk discounts. Major difference in multi buy price record is that quantity tier is greater than one.
  4. Cost (or buy in) prices that use 

    Textbox
    BodyCOST_[fulfilment centre code]
     policy naming convention (e.g. COST_Main), which allow to track the cost of the product to the business and are useful for automatic price generation and reporting   

    Info
    Cost prices are automatically resolved and saved with placed orders enabling generation of profit/loss reports and aiding  any other audit, export or reporting function
  5. Special prices that use a mixture of policy and fulfilment centre configurations to provide special prices available to a specific customer niche.

Adding SKU price requires SKU code and list price (currency and shop are automatically used from current view). Note that SKU code does not necessarily needs to match the existing SKU data. If the SKU code does correspond to an existing SKU data the table with price records will display SKU name, otherwise the SKU name will remain blank. "Quantity" represents the quantity tier of given SKU. "List price" represents the base price for a SKU, whereas "Sale price" (which is optional) represents discounted list price. "Valid from" and "Valid to" define price record active period. If left blank the platform assumes that record is always available.

Warning

 Price that are entered into price list can be either NET (without tax) or GROSS (including tax), which depends on the tax configuration. It is up to business to decide which "mode" will suit best for price management. See taxation documentation, which explains this topic in detail.

...

It is anticipated that most of the price list management will be done via import/export facility automatically. In case of manual management manual import/export facility will also be useful when managing prices for large catalogs.
