Create and manage pricing messages
Use the redesigned Pricing Messages page to create and manage pricing messages in Pricing with the same underlying functionality as the existing classic Manage Pricing Messages page.
Get these benefits:
- Search for pricing messages by pricing message name or description from a single search box.
- Refine the results with filters for message text or pricing.
- Use row actions to view, edit, or delete an existing pricing message.
- Create a new pricing message.
Navigation: In the Setup and Maintenance work area, open the Manage Pricing Messages task.
Start on the redesigned Pricing Message page, where you can search for existing messages, refine the results with filters, or select Create to create a new pricing message:
Create pricing message
When you select Create, the New pricing message side panel opens where you can enter the message name, select the Pricing Entity and optionally enter a description. Select the + icon to add token attributes:
Enter pricing message name and description
Select and add the required token attributes, and then select Insert:
Select and add token attributes
Insert token attributes into the pricing message and select Create:
Insert token attributes in message
A new pricing message is created. View, edit, or delete the pricing message using the row actions available:
New pricing message created
Use pricing messages to describe price elements, explain pricing-related conditions, identify pricing segments or strategies, and provide other pricing details in the charge breakdown. Search for messages by name or description, and filter the list by Message Text or Pricing Entity. From the list, you can view, edit, or delete a pricing message.
Take advantage of a modern, consistent page for maintaining pricing messages while preserving established message and token behavior. This helps administrators manage charge breakdown communication with less disruption to existing pricing processes.

Tips and considerations
- The Redwood page preserves the underlying functionality of the classic Manage Pricing Messages page.
- Use a predefined pricing message when it meets your requirement to reduce maintenance.
- Use predefined tokens in the message text. Enclose each token name in curly brackets, for example, {ITEM_NAME}.
- To identify available token names, use the Manage Pricing Message Token Attribute Definitions task and select the applicable pricing entity.
- Name, Pricing Entity, and Message Text are required when creating a pricing message. Use uppercase alphabetic text and underscores between words for a new message name.
