How do I Change Price of an Item for different Customers?

Updated on October 4, 2024 03:52AM by Admin

Apptivo CRM, Customers App allows you to set up special price lists that allow every item to have a different price based on the customer’s purchase. This is a requirement for many common scenarios, such as selling to both wholesale and retail customers or offering a special set of prices for certain high-value customers.

In any case, you will achieve this by using the combination of these three apps:

  • Pricing
  • Items
  • Customers

The benefit of creating an Item Price List is to set up different prices for the same product. Customers App helps in adding up different price lists to the same items for various customers using a separate “Price List” field in the Additional Information section. This will give you the ability to add price lists to individual customers irrespective of their category.

The Price List can be added using two ways. The first way is to link a Price List to a specific customer category. Another way includes giving value in the "Pricelist " field added in the "Additional Information" section. On creating multiple price lists, the first priority will be given to the Price list added in the “Price List” field.
