Price Logics allow logic allows you to build some intelligence into the way your shop calculates prices. Want low-cost cables to carry a higher margin than high-cost laptops? No problem. Want to give your favorite favourite customer preferential pricing? No problem. |
General information about price logic
You specify, per price logic, what margins a certain selection or product should bear. The The calculated output prices can be checked via the price test. It It is possible to specify ten different margin levels (ten price listslevels) per price logic, and you specify on the customer card which price list level generally applies to the customer. The The basic ten price listslevels, Price list from 1 to 10, can be supplemented by customer- or customer-group-specific price logic.
Nettailer comes with two general price logics. One pricing logic's. One of these, called "General," cannot be edited or deleted. This price logic acts as a lifeline if you or someone else happens to remove your specific general price logic. Note that you must change the pre-filled values in the editable general price logic to the margins that are relevant in your case. If the general price logic is removed, or if the date has expired, the general price logic that cannot be removed will be used. The general price logic is used as a parachute to collect the products that do not fall within the scope of any other price logic.
The general price logic can be supplemented by a free number of price logic logics that specifies specify marginal levels at the manufacturer, category, or product level. For For example, you can create a price logic that provides a unique margin level for the manufacturer, "HP.". You can then refine the model with a new supplementary price logic with a different margin level for, for example, the category "Computers/Laptops / Hewlett Packard.". If necessary, in the next step, you can refine with the price logic that gives to give the desired margin per product.
The general price logic can be supplemented with customer-specific price logic. These These work together with the price list level allocated to the customer on the customer card, for example, "Price list level 7." . In practiceIn practise, a price list level is created for a particular customer in combination with a manufacturer, category, or product. This This makes it possible to give customer A an extra price list level with, for example, a 7% margin on Apple's product range , instead of the 10% that would have been obtained according to the general price listlevel.

There are great opportunities to tailor and fine-tune the pricing logic structure. When When you create your price logic structure, it is important that you think through which methodology is useful for your business. The The basic idea is that you should be able to divide your customer base into different segments. For For example, a certain similar customer segment is linked to “Price list 2” Level 2,” while another customer segment is linked to “Price list 7”. The Level 7." The assigned price list level should cover most scenarios for the customer, but can be supplemented with customer-specific price logic if necessary. The The basic version offers ten different price lists levels for managing customer segments. Our Our assessment is that a normal retailer defines between twenty and forty general price logics, which are then supplemented with customer or customer group-specific exceptions. |

This is a fairly typical example of a logic where the greater the cost price of the item, the lower the margin applied.
In this example, any product that costs £9.99 or less will be given a margin of 30%, whereas any product that costs between £200 & and £499.99 will have a margin of 15% applied.

You should always have a default price logic to act as a safety net & and ensure that every product is sold at a profit. With no default price logic, any product with no logic associated with it will be displayed as 'Call for price' in your store. |

Price Logic Priorities
As the Price Logic price logic structure is so flexible, it is possible to create overlapping logics logic's (for example, you could have one logic for Laptops & laptops and another for every HP product). To avoid any conflicts, we have put in place the following order of priorities.:
Going from highest to lowest priority;,
- Customer-specific price logic on the product (including fixed price logic)
- Customer-specific price logic on the subcategory
- Customer-specific price logic on the category
- Customer-specific price pricing logic on the manufacturer
- Default price logic on the product (including fixed price logic)
- Default price logic on the subcategory
- Default price logic on the category
- Default price logic on the manufacturer
- Default global price logic

Please note that a default or global fixed price will not override any customer or customer group-specific price logic. |
