PXM Price Books in Commerce Manager

A price book contains the prices for the products in a catalog. Catalogs with the same hierarchies of products can be associated with different price books. For more information about price books in Product Experience Manager (EP PXM), see the PXM Price Books section.

With price books, you can sell the same set of products with different pricing by creating multiple price books for the same products. Use different pricing for the same products in the storefront by using catalogs with different price books, but the same hierarchy. With catalog rules, you can specify when to display these catalogs based on the shopper context. For more information, see Catalogs and Catalog Rules sections.

You can use price modifiers to change the prices of your child products. By default, child products inherit the same price as their base products. Using price modifiers, you can enable child products to inherit a different price. This enables you to configure the price of child products, for example, to be lower than its base product, without having to individually update the price of your child products. There are two types of price modifier.

Create a price book. Add a product by SKU and then add prices in each currency supported in the store. You can add currencies in the Settings page.

1. In the Product Experience Manager > Price Books page, click Add Price Book.
2. In the Name field, enter a name for the price book.
3. (Optional) In the Description field, enter a description for the price book.
4. Click Save.

You can add products and price only after creating a price book.

1. To add products and prices to a price book, in the Product Experience Manager > Price Books page, double-click the price book.

2. To add a product to the price book, in the Add SKUs field, do one of the following:

   • Enter the SKU number and search for the product.
   • Select a product from the list.

3. To add the product, click the + icon. The products added are displayed in a table with an option to enter price in available currencies.
