Using a Price List for website Regular Prices

Using a Price List for website Regular Prices

Woosage50 allows you to use a Sage Price List to populate the Regular Prices on your website, which is useful if you use Sage Sales Prices for your trade/wholesale customers and want to create a Price List for retail customers, particularly if retail customers can only order via the website and don't need to create an account to place an order.

Typically, trade/wholesale customers will login to place orders at their preferential rates, which may use Sage Price Lists and Special Prices.  These prices will be mapped to their role using Woosage, so that they will be displayed for the logged on customer and used when they place orders.   Retail customers may have prices that are linked to the Sales or Cost Prices in Sage via a Price List (e.g. marked up).

If the retail customers (or any other customer group) can order the products at less favourable prices, without logging in, then previously the Regular Prices could only be updated by Woosage from the Sales Prices or manually, and this feature now allows you to use a Price List to control Regular Prices.

Implementation

Enable this feature in the Woosage50>Settings>Products as follows
  1. Enable base price update from Sage
  2. Enable price list for base prices
  3. Add the name of the Sage Price List that you want to apply to website Regular Prices in Price list name to update base prices.

Things to consider

  1. One of the supported Role Based Pricing plugins must be installed (see this article)
  2. The price list must be assigned in Sage to at least one customer and we recommend creating a dummy customer for this purpose that has no discounts or special prices. If this price list is assigned to other customers accounts , then the dummy customer account code should be name so as to appear first in the list of customers, such as 00000000, AAAAAAA or similar.
  3. The nominated price list cannot have the same name as a Sage customer account code.
  4. Enabling this feature will disable updating prices from the Sales Prices, regardless of the Woosage setting.
  5. Woosage50 uses the first customer (alphanumerically) in the list of customer assigned to the price list, so if that account has any special prices, these will override the price list prices.
  6. Only products in the price list will be updated and any other regular prices will not be changed.
