ATG Commerce pricing services revolve around pricing engines and pricing calculators. The pricing engine determines the correct pricing model for an order, individual item, shipping charge, or tax, based on a customer’s profile. The pricing calculator performs the actual price calculation based on information from the pricing engine. These services make it possible to generate prices dynamically under constantly changing business conditions.
Price Lists. This feature allows you to target a specific set of prices to a specific group of customers. Price lists are managed through a single interface in the ACC. For example, price lists can be used to implement business-to-business pricing where each customer can have its own unique pricing for products based on contracts, RFQ and pre-negotiated prices.
Contracts (ATG Business Commerce Only). Contracts tie together several important new features of ATG Business Commerce, allowing you to associate a particular catalog, price list(s), and payment terms with a specific organization.
