How to Create a New Pricelist

Pricelists are created in the Pricing module. Pricelist is essential for your online store, because it determines prices for the products you sell. Without it you will not be able to sell anything. Pricelist is also necessary in the process of creating your online store because it allows you to preview your products (Products Module) and to test its functions.

Are there any prerequisites I need to fulfil before I will be able to create a complete pricelist?

Yes. You need to define:

  • Particular products (and/or events) for which you will set the price. Products are created in the Products module.

  • Currency in which you are going to sell your products.

  • Taxes and Charges which define the taxing. They are set in the Administration module.

  • Payment and Delivery Methods which determine the payment and delivery methods prices and availability for customers.

  • Optionally the Stock Services in case you want to use Stock to dispatch an order.

If you miss some of these, visit their help-sites and create them according to our tutorials. Otherwise you will not be able to define a complete pricelist.

Make yourself sure you have them all defined before you will start creating a Pricelist:

  1. To create a new pricelist, run the Pricing module.

  2. Click the Pricelists application and the New button located in the tool bar.

    ../../../../_images/pricelists_05.jpg
  3. Select the Pricelist type. Regular is a standard pricelist used to define usual prices.

  4. Define the currency of the pricelist. These two settings cannot be changed in the future. If you find them useless, you have to delete the whole pricelist.

  5. Insert a Name, Internal Name and Description. These fields serve only for your own and BizBox Admin purposes and are never visible to visitors or customers.

Tip

We highly recommend you to fill in description field. It will boost yours and your co-workers orientation and speed of work.

  1. Define Zones for which this pricelist will be active. A customer from a Zone without a defined pricelist will not be able to buy anything on your online store. More pricelists can be defined for one Zone according to your needs.

  2. Gross Price setting determines if the inserted price includes a tax (option YES). If not, the final price (with a tax included) will be calculated automatically. This option will be set as default for particular prices. You can change this setting for every individual price separately.

  3. Set the validity. Active button set to YES will make this pricelist active immediately. You are able to specify the validity date thanks to fields Valid From and Valid Until. Remember - to make this date specification work you have to set the Active button to YES. If the button is set to NO, the pricelist activity is always disabled regardless of the date of specification.

  4. Click the Save button and the base of your pricelist is ready. Now you can price your products, payments, deliveries and handling methods.
