Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Volume Prices

Volume pricing is a pricing strategy that allows discounts for bulk purchases. Typically, the greater the number of items purchased the greater discount.

Volume prices are triggered in the shopping basket based on the business logic coming from Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and are shown on the product details page. This way a customer can see the pricing offers directly on the product details page, before ordering the product.

In Dynamics 365 Business Central use the tables Sales Prices and Sales Line Discounts to set up pricing rules to be shown in the View Volume Discounts table on the product details page in the webshop.

To show volume prices in the Sana webshop, Volume prices should be enabled in Sana Admin: Setup > Products > Price > Volume prices.

If sales prices/ sales line discounts are set for an item in Dynamics 365 Business Central and the Volume prices option is enabled in Sana Admin, then in the webshop, on the product details page a customer will see a link View volume discounts under the product price. Clicking on this link opens the table with volume discounts coming from Dynamics 365 Business Central. The volume discounts are presented for each unit of measure.

The View volume discounts table on the product details page presents the following information:

• The minimum quantity of items that the customer should purchase in order to gain the agreed discount.
• Unit of measure (UOM) the customer can order in.
• Sales price from the Sales Prices table or calculated sales price based on the line discount from the Sales Line Discounts table.
• The discount % from the Sales Line Discounts table or the calculated % based on the unit price from the item card and sales price from the Sales Prices table.
