How to set up tiered pricing for catalog items?

Give one catalog item different unit prices based on the quantity ordered.

Overview

Tiered pricing lets one catalog item have different unit prices based on the quantity ordered. For example: 1 to 100 units at $1,000, 101 to 200 units at $980, and above 200 units at $950. The right price is applied automatically on requests, quotes and orders.


Prerequisites

  • Tiered pricing is turned on for your company. An admin turns it on under Configurations → Company Settings → Suppliers & Catalog by checking Enable tiered catalog pricing.

  • Permission to create and update the Catalogs module.


Step-by-step instructions

  1. Go to Catalogs and open the catalog.

  2. Click Add Item, or open an existing item.

  3. In the Vendors section, set Pricing Type to Tier pricing for the supplier. Flat pricing is the default.

  4. Add each tier with a start quantity, an end quantity and a unit price. The last tier has no end quantity.

  5. Add more tiers as needed, then save.


How it works on requests, quotes and orders

  • The unit price is set by the quantity entered, and updates when the quantity changes.

  • A Tiered badge shows next to the price, and the Price column shows Price Range.

  • If someone changes the price by hand, a confirmation message appears and the line is marked Overridden Price.


Import tiered pricing

In the catalog import file, add one row per tier using the columns Pricing Type, Tier Min Qty and Tier Max Qty. Keep the same Supplier Item No on each row for that item.


FAQ
