Retail Price Override

 

WebAlliance pricing generally matches your ERP system's pricing. In the case of Retail Users, however, you have the option to statically assign a field that determines pricing for each item.

NOTE: This feature only applies to websites that have enabled pricing for Retail Users.

What makes a "Retail User"?

Retail Users are:

  •  Any non-logged-in user
  •  Any user logged in with an account that is set to 'RetailUser' in the "Security & Access" tab of their User Detail page

What's the benefit of Retail Price Override?

In the standard pricing configuration, the WebAlliance system calculates the final price for each item according to customer, location, and item. When you use Retail Price Override, you'll be manually setting that price for Retail Users, so their pages will load more quickly.

What do I need to do to make Retail Price Override work?

If you keep a static retail price in any of Price1 - Price10, simply let Aldrich Web Solutions know which of those fields you'd like to designate.  We'll configure the option for you.

If you want a user to only see retail pricing, you can check the "Use Retail Pricing Only" box. When checked, the user will not use the pricing base on the customer code assigned but will see pricing based on the default customer code (e.g. the pricing an anonymous 'retail' customer would see).

Notes:

  • The Retail User's orders will still import with the site's Default Customer ID. This change affects pricing only - all other aspects of retail shopping remain the same.
  • Because retail pricing will happen outside of your ERP's pricing logic, the final price applied to items might not be the same as the price you're expecting, according to that logic. With Retail Price Override enabled, all pricing for Retail Users is based on your static price field.
  • B2B user experience will not be affected in any way by enabling this option. B2B user pricing will still be calculated on demand.
  • The price should reflect the price for the default selling unit of the item.
  • Price breaks for Retail Users will not be available when Retail Price Override is enabled.
