Quantity-based pricing

Customer Price, Price Lists, Category Price and Product-Customer Matrix can store more than one price for the same assignment by using different minimum quantities.

For an order quantity of 18, a typical set of breaks at 1, 10 and 25 uses the row for 10. The row for 25 does not apply yet.

Set up sensible breaks

  1. Create a quantity-1 row so the assignment has a base value.
  2. Add each higher minimum quantity as a separate row.
  3. Keep website and validity dates consistent unless the tiers intentionally apply in different periods.
  4. Test quantities immediately below, exactly on and immediately above every break.

The price value may be fixed or relative, depending on the selected application type. A lower numeric value is not automatically chosen merely because it is cheaper; quantity eligibility is resolved before the global price-selection strategy compares price types.
