Important

We are updating the images for OroCommerce version 6.1 to align with the latest changes in the back-office design. During this transition, some images may still show older versions. Thank you for your patience as we work to update all visuals to reflect these changes.

Pricing Strategy

To combine prices for Customers, there are two predefined Pricing Strategies:

• Merge by priority

• Minimal prices

To create your own strategy, implement the PriceCombiningStrategyInterface interface and register the service with the ‘oro_pricing.price_strategy’ tag.

Example:

oro_pricing.pricing_strategy.merge_price_combining_strategy:
    class: Acme\Bundle\DemoBundle\PricingStrategy\YourPricingStrategy
    parent: acme.pricing_strategy.your_pricing_strategy
    tags:
        - { name: acme.price_strategy, alias: your_strategy }

After this, your strategy will be available in the System\Configuration\Commerce\Catalog\Pricing\Pricing Strategy in the OroCommerce back-office.

Merge By Priority

Merge By Priority Strategy picks the first price from the given sequence of the Price Lists for an empty slot.

The Merge Allowed flag shows whether a particular Price List is allowed to be merged with the other prices. When Merge Allowed is disabled for a price list, its price will be exclusively used for the product that has no price provided in other price lists with higher priority.

Example1:

Product	Price List	Price	Merge Allowed
SKU1	Default PriceList	9$ / 1 item	true
SKU1	Default PriceList	8$ / 2 item	true
SKU1	Default PriceList	6$ / 5 item	true
SKU1	Custom PriceList	8$ / 1 item	true
SKU1	Custom PriceList	7$ / 2 item	true
SKU1	Custom PriceList	7$ / 4 item	true

Result:

Product	Price
SKU1	9$ / 1 item
SKU1	8$ / 2 item
SKU1	7$ / 4 item
SKU1	6$ / 5 item

Example 2:

Product	Price List	Price	Merge Allowed
SKU1	Default PriceList	9$ / 1 item	false
SKU1	Default PriceList	8$ / 2 item	false
SKU1	Default PriceList	6$ / 5 item	false
SKU1	Custom PriceList	8$ / 1 item	true
SKU1	Custom PriceList	7$ / 2 item	true
SKU1	Custom PriceList	7$ / 4 item	true

Result:

Product	Price
SKU1	9$ / 1 item
SKU1	8$ / 2 item
SKU1	6$ / 5 item

Example 3:

Product	Price List	Price	Merge Allowed
SKU1	Default PriceList	9$ / 1 item	true
SKU1	Default PriceList	8$ / 2 item	true
SKU1	Default PriceList	6$ / 5 item	true
SKU1	Custom PriceList	8$ / 1 item	false
SKU1	Custom PriceList	7$ / 2 item	false
SKU1	Custom PriceList	7$ / 4 item	false
SKU1	Custom2 PriceList	5$ / 10 item	true
SKU1	Custom2 PriceList	4$ / 100 item	true

Result:

Product	Price
SKU1	9$ / 1 item
SKU1	8$ / 2 item
SKU1	6$ / 5 item
SKU1	5$ / 10 item
SKU1	4$ / 100 item
