Price lists allow you to define differentiated prices for different customer groups, sales channels, or commercial situations, giving you flexibility to adapt your pricing strategy.
What are Price Lists?
A price list is a set of rules that modify the base prices of your products according to certain criteria. You can create multiple lists and assign them to specific customers or use different lists in different channels.
Main Features
Multiple Lists
You can create as many price lists as you need:
- List for wholesale customers
- List for retail customers
- List for online sales
- List for special promotions
- List by region or area
Adjustment Types
Each list can use one of two adjustment types:
- By Value: Increases or decreases price by a fixed amount
- By Percentage: Increases or decreases price by a percentage
Flexible Assignment
You can assign price lists to:
- Individual customers: Each customer can have their own list
- Sales channels: Different prices for POS vs online store
- Specific contexts: Use temporary lists for events
POS Integration
Price lists are automatically applied at the point of sale when:
- You select a customer who has an assigned list
- The sales channel has a default list
- You manually change the active list
Common Use Cases
Segmentation by Customer Type
Example:
- "Wholesale" list: -15% on base prices
- "Retail" list: Base prices without modification
- "VIP" list: -10% on base prices
Prices by Channel
Example:
- "POS" list: Base prices
- "Online" list: -5% on base prices (to incentivize online purchases)
Temporary Discounts
Example:
- "Liquidation" list: -30% on base prices
- "Black Friday" list: -25% on base prices
Prices by Region
Example:
- "CABA" list: Base prices
- "Interior" list: +10% on base prices (due to shipping costs)
How It Works
- Create a price list with its type (value or percentage) and adjustment
- Assign the list to customers or channels
- In POS, when you select a customer with assigned list, prices adjust automatically
- Products show price according to the active list
