Adjust Price for Pricing Rules

Use tier pricing or a pricing matrix to adjust the price that a pricing rule calculates.

Tier Pricing

Adjust a pricing rule according to quantity or monetary value. For example:

  • If the quantity on the sales order is 10 to 19, then reduce the price for each unit by $200.

  • If the quantity on the sales order is 20 or more, then reduce the price for each unit by $400.

Pricing Matrix

Adjust a pricing rule according to the value of an attribute. For example:

  • If the customer on the sales order is Computer Service and Rentals, then reduce the total price by $50.

  • If the customer on the sales order is Computers Direct to U, then reduce the total price by $25.

Example

If Computer Service and Rentals orders 10 computers, then the rule does this calculation:

Description

Calculation

Base price for each item before tier discount

$2,000.

Tier

The quantity of 10 places the sales order in tier 1.

Tier adjustment

$200 discount for each unit.

Price for each unit after tier adjustment

$2,000 base price minus $200 discount equals $1,800.

Price for all units after tier adjustment

10 unit multiplied by $1,800 equals $18,000.

Adjustment in pricing matrix

$50 discount off total price.

Price after tier adjustment and matrix adjustment

$18,000 minus $50 equals $17,950.
