ASP Online Store System - Customer Based Pricing - Enhancement

Specifying different price fields in the product's table can now also do customer pricing. Customers can be separated into types such as retail, wholesale; distributor and each can "see" a different price for the same product. The prices are stored in the product record and not dynamically looked up in the customer prices table.

What do you have to do:

• Tell ASP Online Store System what types of customers you have (retail, vendor-supplier, reseller, affiliate, etc.)
• Tell ASP Online Store System where to find their prices
• For each customer you want a special price for, put their customer type in their customer record

ASP Online Store System does the rest

For example

Price level is set by customer type a-b-c-d

How Customer pricing works

You need to tell ASP Online Store System which types of customers you have. Say you have three types. Retail, wholesale and distributor and they see three different prices. You want retail customers to see the normal price (cprice) but you want wholesalers to see another price and distributors to see a third price.

How prices are determined

Normal retail customers will see the normal retail price.

Wholesale and Distributors would login before they shop and ASP Online Store System will save their customer type. When a product is displayed a lookup is done to determine which field in the products table to use as their price by matching the customertype with values in customerpricetypes. and determining which fields to use xcustomerpricefields.

These can be easily configured by the Store Manager at his/her browser based Store Management System.
