What is a price book?
· 1 min read
A price book is a defined set of prices for products, applied to a particular customer group, segment, or contract. Instead of one universal price per product, a price book lets you sell the same item at different prices to different customers.
Why businesses use price books
- Trade vs retail pricing
- Contract or negotiated rates per customer
- Seasonal or annual price lists
You only define the exceptions — products not in the book fall back to their base price.
How it keeps pricing consistent
When a price book is selected on a quotation, each line pulls its price from the book automatically. Because the price flows through to the order and invoice via snapshots, the customer is billed exactly what was quoted.
