In case product's average cost change then you can create a price rule action such that Percent Of Average Cost (PRICE_POAC) to 130 percent. Then system will always sale the product on that rule.
The issue with the price rule you mentioned is that the system would add 130 percent of costs to the list price. I want just the 130 Percent of Average Costs without adding that to the list price. Is that possible? -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: Price Rule Engine From: Rishi Solanki <rishisolan...@gmail.com> Date: Thu, April 05, 2018 5:10 am To: ofbizuser <user@ofbiz.apache.org> James, If you wanted to set list price as 30% of average cost, then there is no direct mechanism. You may need to set the average price for product and service to do that. In case product's average cost change then you can create a price rule action such that Percent Of Average Cost (PRICE_POAC) to 130 percent. Then system will always sale the product on that rule. Please refer: Catalog >> Price Rules >> Edit Price Rules >> Action Type Section. Current Ecommerce Portal and price engine expect list price always. So setting list price and adding rule on Average Cost works for you, if I'm getting your problem correctly. HTH! Rishi Solanki Sr Manager, Enterprise Software Development HotWax Systems Pvt. Ltd.
