About Price Lists

A price list is a set of standard prices for products or services. Price lists generally contain the first prices that a buyer sees, before any pricing adjustments take place.

A product must be assigned a price in a price list to appear in a catalog, so the price list is one of the requirements for a product's visibility.

A product price defined in a price list is commonly used as the starting price for other prices generated by Siebel ePricer. You should test the price list thoroughly before applying more advanced price adjustments.

This chapter looks at the four common ways of creating a price list:

• Create a new price list
• Copy and modify an existing price list
• Copy and transform an existing price list
• Import price lists from other applications using Siebel EIM

After you create a price list, you must assign it to users, to make it control their prices.
