Operating
IBM Management Center for WebSphere Commerce
The IBM Management Center for WebSphere Commerce, or Management Center, is a suite of tools to support store management, merchandising, and marketing tasks for business users (Sellers, Marketing Managers, Product Managers, Catalog Managers, and others).
Catalog Filter and Pricing tool
Use the Catalog Filter and Pricing tool in Management Center to create and manage catalog filters, price lists, and price rules. Sellers, Sales Managers, and Account Representatives can use the tool's flexible features to implement catalog filtering and pricing strategies that meet the site's business needs over time.
Working with price rules
A pricing manager creates and manages the price rules that are used for storefront pricing.
Price rule building blocks: actions, conditions, and branches
When you build a price rule using the Price Rule Builder, your building blocks are actions, conditions, and branches. These building blocks are represented as icons, or elements, in the palette. You select elements from the palette and place them in a precise order along a flow that represents the price rule.
Conditions in price rules
You might need to set prices differently within a single price rule depending on certain conditions. If so, add condition elements to your price rule. Your price rule must contain a Condition Branch to create a separate path for each condition element.
Customer Condition
Use this condition in a price rule to set prices differently based on the member groups or organizations to which customers belong. For example, you could create a price rule that gives customers in the Tier A member group lower prices than customers in the Tier B member group.
Looking up the unique ID of an organization
Use the Organization Administration Console to look up the ID of an organization to specify in the Customer Condition in a price rule.
