Because prices can be based on contracts, requests for quotations, or pre-negotiated prices, it may be useful to assign a price list to an individual or to an organization.
There are two ways to use the Business Control Center to assign price lists to customers:
Assign a price list directly to individual users. See Assigning Price Lists to Users.
Assign a price list to an organization, so all users in an organization are provided with prices from that list. This option is available to customers who use ATG Business Commerce with Merchandising. See Assigning Price Lists to Organizations.
It’s also possible to provide a price list to users dynamically, by specifying a price list based on a set of circumstances. For example, you can create a scenario that, when a user registers, assigns a price list to him or her. Then, after the user makes a purchase or clicks a particular link, you can assign a different price list. To learn more about scenarios, see the ATG Personalization Programming Guide.
