[?] Extra Price Option Reply to topic

I was wondering what it would take to add a second price option.
Can we have the price option default to a group (Dealer for Dealer Wholesale for Wholesale)?

Can we have it show accumulative cross out prices like it shows for "List Price" now.
Reg user (cost) would see List Price $0.00 crossed out.
Dealer would also see Sale Price $0.00 crossed out.
Wholesale would see all the above as well as Dealer $0.00 crossed out.

hmm, the path I took was relatively simple, hence its implementation.

This is considerably more complex, and requires re-naming now-existing fields, so it will take a while to think it through.

Well, I thought about it, and it is messing my head up with so many different ways of doing it

Right now, my thoughts are as follows

• set up a new db table where x% discount for group X, y% for Group Y, etc (cached)
  
• the advantage lies in future product pricing updates
  
• the admin interface allows selection of multiple groups for each product
  
• the user interface picks up the Group X name and displays that in the order button
  
• multiple crossed out prices is not workable with multiple pricing
  

Thoughts anyone?

Separate from this, but arising from it, is the issue of product management which I have initiated as a separate Bugger and topic.

My head hurts too.
Are you talking dealer cost as a percentage?
Just asking because I'm working with different discounts based on the store and sub stores could be an extra 20% or only 2%.
I also have been entering inventory with phpMyAdmin into the products database.

I'm talking about the possibility of a discount %, fullstop - that might be 5%, 20%, 50% or any other value you choose.

If you want to call a group "Dealers", that's your choice - as of v9.3.0, it now automatically provides the name of the group you used, not the language definition previously used.

If, and I say if, we go in that direction, we would have a new table, cms_cart_discounts with 2 fields, "group" and "discount".

Discount levels on a product basis - each product would be able to be assigned 1 or more of these % discount groups and would display the relevant discounted price A to members within that discount group A only, members of Group B would see discounted price B, etc.

This simplifies things especially when you have large numbers of products.
e.g. when you have to raise your product prices, the discounted price will automatically change.
