How to manage product prices and discounts.
In this step-by-step guide, you'll learn how to set up the different pricing aspects for your products. This guide will cover Price, Discount Price, Purchase Price, and Max Discount (%)
Price:
- The price of the product is the base cost at which you intend to sell it.
- It's the amount your customers will see as the standard cost of the product.
Discount Price:
- If you want to offer a discounted price for your product, you can set a Discount Price.
- The Discount Price will be displayed in the product list and on the product page.
- The discounted price will usually appear in a different style than the ordinary price in the store, such as red text color for example.
- The Purchase Price is the amount you pay to your supplier or manufacturer to acquire the product.
- It's used to calculate the margin (profit) you'll make on each sale.
- Unlike the Price and Discount Price, the Purchase Price is not shown to customers.
- Accurately input the Purchase Price to ensure correct profit margin calculations.
Max Discount (%):
- The Max Discount (%) is the highest percentage by which a product's price can be discounted.
- This value helps you maintain control over the level of discount offered.
- It's used to calculate the potential profit margin when applying discounts.
- When creating marketing campaigns or promotions, the Max Discount (%) helps prevent excessive discounting.
The system will warn you if you try to add a product to a campaign with a discount exceeding the Max Discount (%), but not automatically remove it.
