I'm using version 1.2.12 and I have 2 separate price groups, Retail and Wholesale. I've entered a break for each, 50% off for retail, 25% off for wholesale. I then tried to see what impact that would have when creating a sales order or when creating a sales invoice. Pricing for neither was impacted. I the default sell price and repeated the process. Pricing showed up blank after entering the product I'm working with. Thinking that a date range was necessary to have it take effect, I entered a date range. No change. Am I missing something basic here to get this working?
