Pricing

Hi, I have a question on price levels and if it is possible in AccountRight Premier.  Our customers are set up as either end-user or distributor.

We have pricing per item code for end-user and distributors

If an end-user buy more than $1K - he gets distributor pricing.  I can change his card file for this transaction to distributor to get the right pricing, but then I have to remember to change it back to end-user afterwards.  Manual process which is not good.

The only options I can see is quantity levels

End-user price - with prices for over 5 or 10 or # of items - BUT, that doesn't solve the problem for when Mr K buys 1 item as part of a $1K order, as I will select 1 item only and then he doesn't get discount?

My thought process is to create another item code for $1K pricing.

Is there a better way to do this - I would love a consultant to help if possible.

Sales people request is - can we have something like a drop-down box with different pricing per item?

Price per item, price if distributor, price if $1K customer, price per pallet?

Your help is greatly appreciated!

      Hi PF_1 , apologies for not jumping in here, this week has been very busy for me so far. I will make a brief comment.

       

      MYOBs pricing options do not cater for your particular business rules, as you have found. Changing the customer's card file for large orders is the most efficient process, but as you say, you must remember to change it back.

       

      You have 4 choices:

      • Apply the rules manually
      • Find an add-on program which has better pricing options, eg Web Ninja (one of many B2B e-commerce programs). See Apps Search | MYOB Apps.
      • Find a different core program
      • Change your pricing rules.

        Hello Mike

        Thanks very much for your reply.  I will investigate the idea of an add-on program.

    Hi PF_1,

     

    AccountRight Premier does support different pricing levels, but it doesn't have the specific functionality you're looking for, like a drop-down box with different pricing per item based on customer type or order value. You can consider checking out this Help article: Custom price levels

     

    Maybe Mike_James, one of our knowledgeable community members, can offer some advice.

     

    Cheers,

    Princess
