Product	Country	State	Region	Store	Price	Comments
Bread	Australia			Sydney George St	$80	(Example A) This is a very specific price for a single store, it is chosen first. The values of { country state region } are not required, but must be correct if provided
Bread	Australia		Sydney		$74	(Example B) This price is used by all stores in the Sydney region (ie that have been assigned to that region, not that their address is within Sydney)
Bread	Australia	NSW			$69	(Example C) This price is for any store marked as in the state NSW
Bread	Australia				$65	(Example D) This sets the base price for any store in Australia that does not have a more specific price

You can overlap regions as this example shows. The price chosen for a store in Sydney is based on the region it is defined as

Product	Country	State	Region	Store	Price	Comments
Milk	Australia		Sydney General		$5
Milk	Australia		Sydney Franchise		$4.95
Milk	Australia		Sydney Premium Stores		$5.50

General Guidelines and Notes

It is much easier to understand pricing if you define a single price point for every combination of product/store (see example A above). However this rapidly becomes unworkable, as if you have 50 stores and 20,000 product lines, you will be maintaining 1,000,000 individual prices

Multi region pricing is implemented using Pricemaps with special internal indicators. This means you can bulk load region pricing using pricemaps tools.

Pricemaps also contain logic to select prices by department, product, customer, supplier. This allows you to create very complex rules that can be difficult to reason about, or even for programs to determine which rule applies. If you are building complex rule hierarchies, we strongly adivse careful use of the "priority" field to influence which rule is selected first.

Formulas

In order to simplify pricing you can define a formula to set the price for a rule rather than an explicit price or discount. These formulas can reference other area pricing to determine the current price. Brief examples:

= { unitprice country(New Zealand) } * 0.9
= { unitprice country(Australia) region(Sydney General) } * 1.1

Multi Country Considerations

In a multi country configuration, each individual product has a single ticket price in the base countries currency. You can enter a price rule that uses formulas to create a default price in Country B, based on the base country pricing.

Consider a New Zealand based store expanding to Australia. Every NZ product already has a price, so a single entry can define default pricing for Australia

Product	Country	State	Region	Store	Price	Formula
	Australia					{unitprice country(new zealand)} * 0.9

As no product was specified on this rule, it applies to all products that do not have any other rule, ie it is a default price if nothing else matches.
