Adding Price Lists for the Related Regional Store

When creating a new price list for a related regional store, you must specify the price list’s locale, which determines the currency the price list will use. Out of the box, Commerce ships with three price list locales:

If your new price list requires a different locale, you must add it to the price list repository definition before creating the price list.

To add a new price list locale to the price list repository:

  1. In <ATG10dir>/home/localconfig, create the following file:

    /atg/commerce/pricing/priceLists/priceLists.xml

  2. Edit this file to include any new locales. Locales are defined in the dcs_price_list table, under the locale property. Specify a language code, country code and currency code, as defined by ISO 639, 3166, and 4217 respectively, for each new locale. Separate the language, country, and currency codes using an underscore, for example it_IT_EURO. You must also supply a unique code for each locale. When you are finished, your priceLists.xml file will look similar to the following:

    <gsa-template xml-combine="append">
      <item-descriptor name="priceList">
        <table name="dcs_price_list">
          <property name="locale" >
            <option value="it_IT_EURO" code="3"/>
          </property>
        </table>
      </item-descriptor>
    </gsa-template>

  3. Stop and restart your ATGPublishing and ATGProduction servers to access the changes to the user profile and price list repository definitions. See Starting the Publishing and Production Servers in the ATG Commerce Reference Store Installation and Configuration Guide for detailed instructions.

At this point, you can add list price and sale price lists for your related regional store in the Business Control Center. The procedure below provides an overview for adding a price list. For more specific details, see Using and Defining Price Lists in the ATG Merchandising Guide for Business Users.
