When using the method above, you need to add price variations to every product for each customer group. This method allows customer price groups to be handled as a percentage of the current price and calculated dynamically.
You can use this method alongside the first method.If there is a price within the customer price field in the product record, it is used instead of the customer price percent value.

Setting this to Yes turns on customer-based pricing. |
Below are the steps you can follow to setup the customer group discounts:
1. Create each customer groups you will have.
Please refer to page 293 on how to create customer groups and assigning your customers to the groups.
2. When adding/editing customer groups, make sure you fill in a value for the “Discount”field.
As an example, for Wholesale customer group, we will set 0.1 as value (10% discount from product price).
For Distributor customer group, we will set 0.2 as value (20% discount from product price).
If the field value is smaller than 1, then it will be a percentage. If the field value is greater than 1, it will be a fixed amount.
For example, if Discount value is 0.1 and the default price is $180, then the customer price will be $162 ($180 – ($180*0.1)).
For example, if Discount value is 20 and the default price is $180, then the customer price will be $160 ($180 – 20).
