Price groups ("the old way")
Price groups offer a basic way of linking job fees to job types. The logic is quite simple:
- For relevant Job types and Units, you specify a fee in the specified currency per
- The fee is then automatically calculated based on, for example, the running time of the part
How to use
- Create a Price group (under Tools & Data / Price groups)
- This is the unchanging unit which you can connect to users
- Add at least one price list to the price group
- By using price groups, you can update the fees over time and specify a point in time when the new fees are used.
- The jobs, thus, need a Delivery date in order for the fee to be calculated
- Attach Price groups to users/people
- Here, as well, you can specify a date. These dates allow you to swap price groups for users over time without affecting the fees of old jobs.
Limitations
- A price group only supports a single currency
- Exceptions cannot be made for different target languages
