Bookshelf v8.1/8.2: Dynamic Pricing Procedure Workflow

The Dynamic Pricing Procedure workflow, as shown in Figure 39, provides the advanced pricing capabilities. It contains steps and subprocedures that populate the List Price, Start Price, and Net Price fields. It also calculates the monthly recurring and nonrecurring subtotals for root Customizable Products. These prices and subtotals are calculated based on information from price lists, customizable product adjustments, volume discounts, attribute adjustments, aggregate discounts, service price details, product promotions, and manual discounts.

NOTE: The Dynamic Pricing Procedure replaces the Pricing Procedure - Default.

Table 21 lists the steps in the Dynamic Pricing Procedure workflow with the business service and method that is called by each step.
