Price list

Price list

A price is built up of several parts. These include the price paid to the manufacturer, the seller’s markup and any shipment costs. In addition, there are often additional “one-time” costs to be added the first time a product is purchased.

A price list specifies how the various parts of the price will be calculated for a class of products from a supplier. For example, a supplier may have one price list for their quick-turn small series production and another price list for their volume production.

A price list is made up of several sections. Each section is a list of one or more price elements, which are processed in order. The sections of a price list are:

  •  Limitations: A collection of constraints, such as product type, number of layers, etc. which determine whether or not the price list applies to the product/order.
  • Factory one-time price: The factory’s one-time price, if applicable.
  • Factory base price: The factory’s price for manufacturing the boards.
  • Factory MOV: If the sum of the factory one-time price (if any) and factory base price is less than the factory’s minimum order value (MOV), then the factory base price is increased accordingly. Note: This section contains only one price element.
  • Factory price in USD: The factory price, converted from the factory’s currency to US Dollars. Note: This “section” does not contain any price elements. It simply applies the exchange rate to the factory price.
  • Retail one-time price: The one-time price, in USD, that the customer will pay, if applicable. (This price is not dependent on the factory one-time price. It may be larger, smaller or the same as the factory price one-time price.)
  • Retail base price: Adds the seller’s markup to the factory base price in USD.
  • Minimum markup: If the seller’s markup is less the minimum markup (in USD), then the retail base price is increased accordingly. Note: This section contains only one price element.
  • Shipping price: The estimated shipment cost in USD.

Price list properties

A price list also has several properties:

  • Number: A unique identifier for the price list
  • Name: A unique name for the price list
  • Currency: The currency of the factory prices in the price list
  • Exchange rate: The exchange rate, 1.0 USD = 1.0 Currency * Exchange Rate
  • Site ID: A unique integer identifier for the supplier (factory or production site), which may be used to determine if one-time costs should be applied
  • Site name: The name of the supplier
  • Site country ID: The country code of the supplier, which may be useful when calculating shipping costs
  • Public name: Supplier name as shown to customers, usually an abbreviation which hides the actual supplier name
  • Description: A description of the price list
  • HTMLDescr: An extended HTML-formatted description of the price list
