Price Selection

Pricesystem calculates multiple candidate prices for a product (from Magento core prices and from installed Pricesystem price types) and then selects the final purchasable price using a configurable strategy.

This section explains:

• which price selection strategies exist (Lowest / Highest / Sort order / Formula)
• how customer and customer-group overrides work (Advanced Config Add-On)
• how strike-through price can be taken from the "next available" price (Sort order)

What Is A "Price Type"?

Internally, Pricesystem works with price type codes (also called "price codes"), for example:

• Magento core: tier_price (group price), special_price, catalog_rule_price, orig_price
• Pricesystem: customer_discount, group_discount
• Optional price type modules: customer_price, categoryprice, pricelist, base_pricelist, product_customer_matrix

The final price strategy selects one of these candidate price types based on your configuration.
