Pricing Scheme Rewards

The previous version of this page described “member-specific item pricing through the pricing scheme method”, configured by member class. There is no such link. A pricing scheme is a price-list template — “Retail”, “Wholesale”, and, if you name one so, “Member Price” — created under the Pricing Schemes menu of Doc Item Maintenance, with the actual price entered per item on the item’s Pricing Scheme tab. Which scheme a terminal reads is a POS General setting (the scheme that supplies the retail, minimum and maximum price). The scheme knows nothing about members.

A pricing scheme does appear inside a membership design in one place: a price-book treatment can name a Pricing Scheme, and in the POS path that makes the price set apply only to lines priced on that scheme. The scheme still holds no member logic; the price book’s Member Class rule does.

Decide before you create schemes

  • Create a scheme only for a price list that will be entered and maintained per item. Every scheme is another price column on ~5,200 items.
  • If the point is tier pricing, start on the Pricebook page; a “Member Price” scheme that no price book or terminal reads is a column nobody uses.
